Episode notes
From Belgium To Remote Florida Deals
- Dimitri moved from Belgium to Florida with two suitcases and started handwriting letters to code violation lists to get deals.
- He bought his first U.S. property (a mobile home on five acres) and has since focused on Florida vacant land deals remotely.
Regulatory Gap Creates U.S. Edge
- Belgian regulations (high transfer taxes, slow closings, government oversight) make real estate investing far harder than in the U.S.
- Dimitri emphasizes the U.S. allows far more entrepreneurial real estate opportunities by comparison.
Land Reduces Emotional Price Anchors
- Vacant land reduces emotional attachment and price anchoring, making heirs more reasonable sellers.
- Land values are less obvious, so negotiators can create bigger spreads through problem-solving.
