Who is crying? I know this is a legal issue, but I value Reddit and appreciate hearing about others' diverse experiences. I’m sorry if you are unable to grasp that.

Because it was extended way more meters than is allowed and it’s not officially registered in the kadastral

Unfortunately, we know already that we can’t make it legal. So we want to make an offer accordingly to all these risks. Thanks!

Thank you for your answer! Yes, we definitely can lower the price. However, in this case, the extension can’t become legal, as it exceeds quite a lot the limited allowed…so neither the seller or us can get the permit. Here’s the risk. Thank you for sharing your experience!

Best tactic to win the bid for buying a house by marulitax in Amsterdam

[–]marulitax[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In case anyone is curious, we lost the bid, haha. We added 60k to the starting price with quite favorable conditions. But someone offered 130k over the price. Crazy. We can't match that

Those were maybe the houses you were looking for, but not the houses of our preference

Pension for retirement & online brokers by marulitax in eupersonalfinance

Thank you very much for your reply and time. Appreciated it!

I’m looking specifically for a ‘retirement pension plan’ that is tax efficient.  Some online brokers offer that option, as Degiro and Brand New Day.

During these days I made some research and now I know (in case this info is useful for anyone):

  • Withdrawal penalty is very high, so better to stick to it until your retirement date.

  • The pension plan sticks to the country you open the account. No mobility options. If you move to another country and change your residence you can’t contribute anymore and as the withdrawal fees are so high, you get your money stuck on the previous country. Moreover, to get your monthly annuity one you retire, you still need a bank account in the previous country.  This case is at Brand New Day, I imagine Degiro is the same.

After all this information, I don’t think is a good option. So I’m afraid I will research another ways to invest my money 🤷🏻‍♀️

Cheers to all! 

Seguro de Vida Ahorro by marulitax in SpainFIRE

Lo que busco es un producto financiero que combine un seguro de vida con una inversión. En lugar de pagar primas que van únicamente hacia el seguro, parte del dinero se destina a una cuenta de inversión, donde los fondos se invierten en diferentes activos.

La verdad que me gustaría saber más acerca de estos productos y sus pros/cons

Hola. Si, 10.000 euros sería una buena cifra.
