Residency StatusWhile stationed in Germany, you qualify as a resident, which makes securing a mortgage easier.Even if you're not a resident, many German banks will lend to non-German citizens who can demonstrate financial stability.2.

Imagine luxury homes, dream holidays, and financial security.

I have a separate interest bearing account for security deposits as required by my state laws.

Executive SummaryIn recent years, Germany has emerged as one of Europe's most stable and attractive real estate markets for international investors, particularly for American investors seeking secure, high-return opportunities.

IE securing them paying tax's insurance etc etc. 

Security brought some learning lessons for us.

Personally I would pass but if you go forward I would do a lot of research on the group you are renting to and get a very large security deposit to cover damage. 

I would echo the post about security. 

The first part for me is investing in real estate since I have a secured job that I’m hoping can subsides some income to give me the freedom to put more time to real estate with a eventual transition to full time real estate business.

A hard pull allows a lender to run your file through an automated underwriting system to determine whether or not you're pre-qualified.
