With the gradual recovery of the German economy, investors are betting on the German phenomenon, and Germany is about to usher in the peak period of investment immigration. China investors began to pay attention to the German immigrant housing market after Germany issued a new immigration bill. On the basis of the previous immigration bill, Germany's constant investment amount and new welfare can realize three generations of immigrants.

Today, Germany has become one of the emerging immigrant countries favored by China people. Germany has a high level of education and medical care, good welfare and comfortable living environment, all of which are important reasons for China people to immigrate to Germany. Therefore, Lejin immigrants think that Germany, as the immigration destination of many China investors, adopts skilled immigrants and German immigrants, but compared with other immigration methods, German immigrants are more direct and convenient.

Take German skilled immigrants as an example. Applicants who invest in buying a house by German immigrants should not only submit an application for a labor permit to the Ministry of Internal Affairs (local labor bureau), but also submit an application to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Immigration Bureau and even the post office. Only when the government partially confirms that the position for which the applicant applies for a work permit is really needed by the German employer to provide services to the outside world, and no suitable candidate can be found in Germany, will the German consulate accept the application. Then the applicant also needs to provide proof of no criminal record, original birth certificate, notarized work experience and documents proving that the applicant must have enough experience to be qualified for the position. I believe that the majority of applicants have been discouraged from seeing the above application materials. In such a policy environment, it is the best choice for immigrants to buy a house in Germany.

The convenience of German immigrants buying a house is that the overall application process only takes 6-7 months and the trial speed is fast; Permanent title deed of real estate passed down from generation to generation; There is no need to explain the business background and source of funds; A family with three generations of immigrants has no restrictions on the renewal of children's insurance; The EU and Schengen member countries have gained the status of free access to 26 Schengen countries.

And Germany is a high welfare country in Europe. After paying social insurance, everyone can enjoy free medical care, unemployment relief, retirement pension and other benefits. Moreover, German immigrants can also let their children enjoy European quality education resources. A good social welfare system will bring people a comfortable life and make their own people feel more secure.

Nowadays, whether in Germany or in other immigrant receiving countries in the world, buying a house by immigrants has become a mainstream immigration method. Because investing in real estate can not only get a local green card, but also be used as an investment method to spread your own funds and avoid the risk of single investment. In addition, the processing time for obtaining identity is fast and the application process is simple, so German immigrants have become the immigration way for many investors to flock to buy houses.
