I've been able to trace back my ancestors to the late 1800s and found they were all real estate investors, even in Germany where one was so successful he gave his town it's first fire station.

Concerning air guns, here in Germany we have clear rules you cannot buy air guns under 16 years (not safe for children).

One issue I forgot to mention is that they are relocating from California to Washington, but the husband is then being stationed in Germany for 2 years (leaving the wife and child behind for this time) until he is re-stationed here.

I'm currently stationed in Germany (Army) and will be hopefully in Maryland in a year's timeframe.

In Germany we state these licenses "master craftsman" and you need an "master craftsman certificate" for hitting a nail into a wall.

There is a chance I'll move overseas in the next year or 2 if my g/f gets moved for her job, and I am trying to learn more about my prospects as a young investor living in a foreign market (Belgium, Germany, UK, or Spain are my likely landing spots).Anyone you can get me in touch with to learn more would be so helpful!

I don't lose too much sleep at night thinking we're turning into Germany post WWII though.Almost all of the news I read now is positive and points to a sustained recovery.

@Brian,No sorry I´m in Germany actual and do my homework from here.

Anotyher point was that the US lagged in homeownership, yes, because in Europe and Asia, land has been owned for hundreds of years by the same families, single family markets in Germany are very slow.
