Some companies sell dreams. Beautiful pictures, rosy promises of high returns, rose-colored glasses — and silence about taxes, daily life, fees, and real risks.
Discount-House is not one of them.
We don't start the conversation with how wonderful everything is. We start with the pitfalls.
Before the client says "yes," we always explain:
what taxes apply to purchase, rental income, and resale in that country;
how much groceries, utilities, and insurance actually cost;
what bureaucratic hurdles you will face;
where money can get stuck during transfers;
what the real, not advertised, timeline is for obtaining residency;
where the developer is cutting corners, and where the agent is holding back information.
No embellishments. Just facts. Even if they are unpleasant.
We don't say: "Buy this, and you'll be happy."
We break it down: here are the pros, here are the cons, here are the risks, here are the alternatives.
After that — the decision is yours.
Want to buy? Buy.
Want to think it over? Think.
Want a different property? We'll find another.
Changed your mind about investing? That's fine too.
We are advisors, not salespeople. Our job is to give you an honest map. Your job is to choose the route.
Because foreign real estate is not only sea, sun, and charming European streets.
It is also:
mortgages at 5–7% in euros,
unpredictable taxes upon resale,
difficulties with repatriating income,
hidden utility costs,
neighbors, construction, or seasonal rental issues that no one mentions in glossy brochures.
We talk about this openly. Before the deal, not after.
Other companies sell you a fairy tale. We show you a map with swamps, ravines, and traps — and say: "This is where the real gold is. And this is where you'd better not go. The choice is yours."
| What others promise | What we say |
|---|---|
| Fairy-tale returns of 20% | Real calculation of 8–12% after taxes |
| "Everything is included and hassle-free" | An honest list of bureaucratic challenges |
| Silence about taxes | Breakdown of taxes down to the last cent |
| A picture of ideal daily life | The real cost of groceries and utilities |
| Pushing the "only right" property | Showing options — you choose |
| Disappearing after payment | Staying with you at every stage |
Discount-House is a company that tells the truth to people of all genders and ages. Without rose-colored glasses. Without beautiful fairy tales. Without salespeople who promise mountains of gold and then hide behind fine print.
We show the pitfalls first. Then — an honest choice is yours.
