New Investor in Oslo, Norway!

[Jakob Pedersen]

Hello All,

This is my first post on Bigger Pockets! Been following the podcasts and cruising through the forums the last few weeks and figured it was time to add my own verse. I am from Seattle, Washington but am residing in Oslo, Norway for the next 6 months. I am looking for other Bigger Pockets members in the Oslo area, and to gain some experience while I have some time off! 

Wondering what the most constructive and effective way to use my time is in regards to learning the most I can about real estate. I am interested in flips and buy and holds and am wondering if it is possible to do both in both countries? Does anyone have any information about where and how foreclosures and wholesales work in Oslo? Also wondering if there are any programs for first time home buyers or any other advantageous ways to make a deal here in Oslo?
