Today we have reached parity 1:1 and that makes buying in Europe a bargain for American's.

I have reached out to 4 mortgage companies and I spoke to a representative of New American, and I told them my situation; the property I am interested in has multiple offers. they mentioned their buyer acceptance program, and wanted to see if anyone has used this program and recommends it.

Also, check the Americans With Disability (ADA) requirements. 

It’s weird bc it’s a mix of student housing but normal adults or anyone can rent them out as well.

now what is older and crap was american made cars in the mid 70s  LOL.. those were poorly built compared to European cars.

If there are no new jobs, it must still be a population influx and someone has to pay it.Section-8 (The American Taxpayer) has deep enough pockets to absorb rent increases.Maybe a lot of Section-8 people have either moved there from elsewhere (such as gunshot Chicago, which has to be scary living there), or a lot of Cradle to Grave welfare recipients are turning 18, or the Prisons are being emptied early due to some kind of political push.Increase in demand causes higher rents. 10 applicants for every unit, vs 1 applicant every 6 months--where would you feel more comfortable about raising your rents.

Also if anyone has any general adult advice for someone to make smart decisions with investing lol I am open to that as well lol 

Purchase price: $125,000 Cash invested: $2,000 Bought it to live in back in 2006, when I should not have, like other Americans... but never walked away from it.

There is a difference between losing 1% EMD and losing 25-50% EMD, which would be a large chunk of someones net worth (most Americans would not be able to come up with this amount)The economics of this tell me more people would begin renting.
