Hello Everyone,

I am happy to introduce myself. My name is William Yang, I am 21 years old from Aruba the caribbean and now living in the Netherlands to finish my school (Fianancial Administration).

I am very interested to learn more about Real Estate Investing in the Netherlands. I am very into the creative side of investing (like subject to,seller financing & lease option) At the moment I am looking for ways to educate myself more about the regulation & the laws in Netherlands etc

My questions is:
Are there Dutch members on BiggerPockets doing creative investing in Netherlands?

Feel free to ask me anything. Greetings from Enschede, Overijssel.

Dear William,

If you bring up a good deal there is always a way to get some percentage of ownership in the deal. Other than that I don’t see a lot of creative financing other than using private money. The best advice I can give is to find deals and present them to experienced investors in return for some small percentage. I see a lot of newbies enter the game like this starting with now money and getting something like 5-10% and use the profits for a next deal bringing in the deal and some money to work their way up to 25% of 33% sometimes 50% until they are experienced enough and have the cash for their first 100% ownership deal. It all starts with finding good deals.
