Why consider buying a studio in Brussels in this residence?

Attractive leverage possible

In this residence near the Brussels-Schuman train station, you can acquire full ownership of a premium studio from a contribution of +/- EUR 95 000.

You can easily borrow the rest of the purchase price via a mortgage loan whereby the lender establishes a mortgage on the studio.

This minimum required own contribution of EUR 95,000 may consist solely of liquid assets (money in a bank account).

But this own contribution can also be arranged by making dormant capital liquid again with the help of a loan.

Thus, in addition to cash in a bank account, it is also possible to draw on other accumulated capital in order to arrange for the required minimum equity contribution.

There are many possibilities in terms of alternative real estate financing [AVAILABLE SOON]…

For example, you can work with accumulated capital in a group insurance plan [AVAILABLE SOON] or an FSPSE [AVAILABLE SOON].

Or as a manager, you can also work with accumulated or yet to be accumulated capital in an IPS [AVAILABLE SOON].

In addition, you can always give (partly) redeemed property as collateral and you can even give a portfolio of assets [AVAILABLE SOON] as collateral to pawn the capital in it (also known as a Lombard loan [AVAILABLE SOON]).

Tailor-made yield simulations available

Why should you choose to finance part of the purchase with a credit?

By keeping your own contribution as low as possible, you use the loan capital as leverage.

The combination of rental income and potential long-term added value allows you to maximise the return on your capital.

Would you like to see some calculations showing in black and white what the annual return on your equity can be if you work with leverage?

Please do not hesitate to request further information, free of obligation.

You will receive full guidance, including return simulations tailored to your situation if you wish.

Furnished rental to expats is profitable
