Hola, que recomiendas comprar de auto. Tenemos uno usado que usa bencina y pagamos entre 1500-2500 coronas por mes. Tambien pagamos el seguro (700 kr). Hay algun auto que me recomiendes? El que tenemos es un toyota familiar que compramos por 30000 kr en Marzo. Pienso que gastamos mucho.
You should watch out with A-Kasse as some of them have a requirement that you are able to start working in Denmark as a condition for paying out. Which, if you're from outside of EU, you technically don't have. So check the rules so you don't end up paying for insurance that you can't use.
Mario, when purchasing a house with a mortgage, do you think it's better to take a fixed interest rate loan or a variable one? I've been checking the loan calculators of a few danish banks and, by the end of the loan, you would pay twice as much if you pick a fixed rate. Which one did you choose for yourself?
It depends on how long is your time-frame -- if you're buying long-term (6-7+ years) it will be good to fix the rate (or part of it). I went with 60% F5 and 40% F30 back in 2017.
With the increased interest rates - the difference between fixed interest rate and F-KORT on a 4 million apartment for 30 years is around 2 million DKK extra in interest and bank charges. My bank suggests me go for F-kort (0.00% interest) when the fixed has gone up to (3%). Historically F-kort has never gone to high but what is your opinion on this?
Been living in Aarhus since 2 years, work in one of the biggest companies of Denmark, wife also works in the same company, have a 3 year old, and I just never “got time” to think about these things (and your other videos). Now we are thinking of whether it’ll be worth to move to Copenhagen? My wife’s boss will agree immediately as they are based there, but I have my entire team based in Aarhus. Plus the rents are expensive in CPH, my boys schooling is something to figure out, and honestly I have grown into Aarhus as a cozy city, Copenhagen sometimes feel a bit overwhelming. Having said that we come from Asia and have lived in a big city there all my life! So would you think it could be a good deal for us to consider the Cph shift early 2025? I have leased a Tesla for 3 years so will have a car.
Mario many thanks for your work, I really appreciate it. Maybe I missed it on other videos but this is what I am wondering.... if I move to Denmark which I plan soon, would I be able to buy and then rent apartment to someone else as a EU citizen. I see mixed "i will call them opinions for now". Some say yes, some say no but some say yes but. I wonder do you know anything about it.
I've heard a few people be a bit scared/skeptical of interest-only loans. What's your take on the risk/reward there ? What's your plan for once you have to start paying?
I made a video about it: th-cam.com/video/1xp0jigTNos/w-d-xo.html -- I'm saving that "repayment money" instead of spending it all so will see in 5 years what I'll do
Not moving to Denmark for this exact reason is a bit extreme tbh. If your foreign flat/house is rented out, ok you'll pay income tax on the rents but you're still in a positive balance while keeping an appreciating asset (the flat/house). But if your plan is not to rent it out and use it as a secondary house, then yes it would be hell of a liability with property tax and maintenance cost. 😓
The suburbs + car vs. no car in the city argument I don't agree with. If you rent, you can get a place to live 20-30 minute drive from a major city with a rent that's 3-4000 less and possibly more. Buy a smaller car with average km/l for 24000 that has a lifespan of let's say 4 years. That's 500 a month for the lifespan of the car. Then you might pay 1400-1500 in gas pr month (if you drive 50km pr day on average), 300-400 for insurance and 100 for vægtafgift a month. (Let's be real, with a car that cheap you don't need kasko or any added insurance to pump the price, just ansvarsforsikring) Then add a few hundred more for small repairs and unseen expences you're still 2000 or more in the green (not counting the cost of the car), but even then you're still in the green.
True many things are cheaper in other countries, but when buying something in Denmark you are legally protected against faulty products for 2 years. Some companies, like apple, have their own protection/insurance (as an extra cost) that covers worldwide, but if that’s not the case then I would think twice before buying anything expensive elsewhere because that can end up being a very expensive mistake.

I'm moving to denmark with my gf in roughly 4 months. your videos are very clear and useful. Thanks for your work
Ciao Edoardo, per lavoro? Se si, avresti qualche consiglio riguardo al cv e come muoversi? Sei già in Danimarca?

another top tip: buy second hand in charity shops.. start there, and se if the have what you need.

Yes agree 100% - check the rules and calculate for yourself if it’s worth it. (In my a-kasse video I go through many of the rules).
Indbo may also cover travel insurance
11:23 should be legal from other countries in the common market, will perhaps not save as much but still a lot and be less of a hassle.

Come and visit a few weekends and then think through what you think it's best for you

Yes you can buy and rent, but only if you're legally resident in Denmark
Thank God except buying a car i dont fall in another category 🥳but it is a second had car and leasing was costly.
Solid!

Thanks Mario! I will suggest also don't come to Denmark if you own a a flat or an house outside. You still have to pay Denmark taxation
Thanks for the tip! But if the property is not too valuable I don’t think this will be a big deal though - better align with an accountant
@@MarioScianHQ can you suggest one?

I don't know any accountant, there's a Facebook Group called Spørg en revisor, you can check there
Amen to #5! 🚴🏻♂

Yeah the math you share makes sense, though that assumes that someone would like to live that far and drive a cheap car as well, which are two ifs

Yep, the 2 year protection is great and I talked about it in some of my other videos
Inbo insurance is needed when you have children, because the school will ask if rhe kids are on field trip. So yes you need it.
Didn't know good tip!
