Potentially a 'exclusivity in exchange for reduced fees' or 'reduce per-visit fees as the number of calls increases.'

Exchange rate is favorable too and the place is also well connected to other European cities.

I don't think a gift card is necessary at this point, but if you can exchange addresses and phone numbers that would be great.Think like a neighbor....they are going to be worried about parties, noise, trash, etc.

Buying real estate is NOT a foreign affair to anyone from any country.

A 1031 exchange defers all taxes by reinvesting in a like-kind property, preserving capital for long-term investments but adds complexity and future tax obligations.

@Li Li, Since the 1031 exchange will allow you to move into any type of real estate anywhere in the country. 

In my experience in foreign countries, there is often less consumer protections/ no central MLS or licensing/ greater risk to the principals, much more red tape, and overall higher transactions costs than here so it's important to look at the whole picture not just the commish %.

@Jake Hughes A 1031 exchange is a great way to indefinitely defer all of the capital gains taxes, and gain access to that tax to use over time for your own benefit.

For one, it's gonna help you position yourself with the value exchange.

I also noticed that tenants who are on DHS scheme usually have a higher turnover (e.g move in and out rather quick).As a foreigner, I have to rely everything on the property managers.
