Belgium investor looking for help
Dear all,
I’m a Belgian Real Estate Broker working for Cushman & Wakefield (in Belgium), and I would like to invest in Real Estate in the US.
I’ve been going to the US every year since I was little, and would like the opportunity to invest there.
Is there someone who could help me figure out how this could be possible?
Let’s say i have about 100.000$ to invest.
- can i get financing in the USA?
- how much money will i have to pay as a down payment?
- do i need to consult a Belgian bank with ties in the US
- i read this could cause immigration problems / ESTA refusal / etc. ?
Why am i even considering this? Investing in real estate in Belgium isn’t nearly as profitable. You pay 200.000 Euro +11% tax for a 550 sq f apartment u can rent out at 450 euro a month... (and this in the smaller cities)
I am new and would immensely appreciate all the help i can get!
Thank u in advance,
Clem
