Hi Martin,I have no experience in Eastern Europe, but I do have properties in Germany and Italy.

Good examples would be Zimbabwe (2000's)  Venezuela (current), early Soviet Union (1910s) and post WW1 Germany (1920s).

Makes it easy for politicians to cover doing nothing by blaming rich people.Worked great in pre-war Germany by blaming a certain religious group for the problems of the general population.Sad how it speaks to the average IQ of people.Since Ds own Congress and the Presidency, I'd think it'd be prime to shove stuff like that thru. 

Hey all,I am fairly new to BiggerPockets and would love to connect with anyone living in Germany.

With me going to Germany for my first duty station I wonder how this will play out .

Hi,I have question regarding the tax benefits applied to residential real estate in germany.What kind of depreciation rules work here? (altbau or neubau the same?)What else is possible?

Hi guys,Are there any specific legal structures recommended ? I heard from my accountant about a 2 level holding model.Anyone familiar with that?thanks!

I'm a US citizen and moved to Germany about 10 years ago.

Answer: yesMy answer would remain the same if you replaced “Portland, OR” in that question with anything else be it the US, UK, Germany, Vietnam, Mexico, Canada, India, or the North Pole.

I'm currently in tech school but I'll be going to Germany for 3 years in a few months.
