The combination of Germany's stable economy, well-regulated property market, relatively low interest rates, and the opportunity for long-term capital appreciation make it a compelling choice for U.S.

With down payments as low as 5-10%, plus low property taxes compared to the U.S., investing in German real estate is more accessible than you might think.If you’ve ever thought about owning property overseas but felt intimidated, stay tuned.

Low or no down, seller financing and low or no interest with a balloon payment later is the holy grail (location, building condition, market also matter but it sounds like you have all that).
