[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, on a practical matter... you need to look into potential tax issues if you plan to buy property and live part-time in Europe.[/quote] DP. I'm currently in the market for a house in Germany, but this is true of anywhere in Europe: as long as you spend no more than 90/180 days in Europe, you dont pay taxes as a resident. You're considered a visitor/tourist. So OP's plan to live 4-5 months per year there is totally fine as long as they carefully track their days and split the time over at least 2 trips. As for property taxes, in Germany, they are laughably cheap. On a half million euro property that just fell through for us, taxes were like €50 per quarter. Basically nothing. [/quote]
