    House 3 was, hands down the most beautiful in every way but whatever...is it for sharing? Renting? Buying? Investment? Longterm? If we don't know the goal- it's just another pretty picture.

      Very good question! Guess we were to excited checking out houses that we did not answer that properly! 🤦🏼‍♂️😅
      Will dive into that more in the next Couple Vlogs but short version: we are looking for a rental house to have time to get to know the area and then we can look into what we want to do. (I hope the next few Vlogs will show why we thibk this place is amazing as I am honesly so surprised on how incredible this place is) Always best to start with rental on a new place, thats what we did in Marbella and then got to know what was what. Maybe that big sea front lot Rickard has his eye on could be something to build on...😅
      Could be that a couple more rental options came up, remeber this was day 2 in Cyprus...👊🏼

    If I had to move my family of 4: #3 every single day. More privacy, less heat as trees and pergolas provide shade. More space for friends to visit/ kids to run & play (you’ll have local friends over at some time). #1 & #2 have modern city slicker vibes - #3 feels like a true family home to nest in.

But yeah they do have alot more space then your apartment did. Just not the flare of your home you had built.. Your infinity pool for example was gorgeous and the view you could see from it..

      But why would they live in spain when there is no Family? It’s really pointless. Rikard was the reason Jon and Janni chose marbella in the first place. With him being gone it makes no sense to stay there. Also they will build a house in sweden where they have family and knowing Jon that house might be even better than the Marbella house.
      Also the monaco/cyprus-house is just needed for tax reasons. So I‘m guessing the unofficial main home will be sweden and the one in cyprus/monaco is more or less they’re summer hous (but officially main house).

    House #3 is great for space, privacy and luxury. The location is still the most important question, though: is Cyprus the place for you? The pandemic has shown the problems with trying to live a jet-set life, especially with kids: if you're not in a community with safety, healthcare, education, stores, attractions, and a community of people that is not far from your family and other places you often go to, then you'll just end up isolated at home like Janni was complaining about in Marbella. Rent a nice holiday home anywhere for 2 or 3 months, and then go back to your home base in Monaco, even if it's smaller than you'd like. Rickard could move on to another opportunity by the time you settle down in Cyprus. You don't have to change your house like you change your cars, especially now that you have kids.

      They are choosing this over Monaco for avoiding taxes in Sweden. Monaco and Cyprus are both tax paradises. They obviously will determine this as their first residence towards swedish tax authorities and than they will stay there for a few weeks or even months every year so that it is not illegal.

      Don't look at the Marbella house when they sold it, look at the house when they bought it. Not comparable. Jon is not going to get a house there and just call it a day. That house will look nothing like it does now by the time they sell it again.

      Marbella has become a complete shit show in the last couple of years... It was always a hub for criminals but more recently the crime rates have shot up and mob bosses are openly patrolling the streets with armed gun men - definitely not a place you'd want to raise a family, wealthy people are leaving there in their droves.
      That said, after being faced with moving from Marbella it seems like they did choose Cyprus for tax reasons..
      I've been there, it's really not great - very expensive, low construction standards, little privacy (homes are very close together), little of cultural / historic interest & poor food scene. Hopefully they will look at Malta instead..

    I can just smell the mold in these old flat-roofed brick houses! Even though Cypress is really dry and doesn't get a lot of rain, in places like this that are really hot, when they do occasionally get moisture they can get a lot of mold in bricks especially houses with flat roofs. On a different note, is anyone else thinking what I am? I really didn't get the feeling that Jon was that enthusiastic even though he pretended to be. I wonder if he's allowing his arm to be twisted by Rickard who of course would love to have them there. No doubt Jon wants to be close to Rickard as well but I really didn't get the feeling he was that in love with the place even though he made it sound like he was. Maybe I'm imagining things!

  • @sweipad5451
    @sweipad5451 2 роки тому +33

    I've told you before that the rental cost you had in Monaco was outrageously high, and that it's a better investment to buy something of your own, (which you can also rent out if necessary) to make sure you reduce your variable monthly costs (!) - and since you apparently can’t afford to buy an apartment or villa in Monaco, with at least 2 bedrooms (which is the minimum requirement for a family with two children), I can understand that Cyprus (also with low taxes) will be a cheaper alternative for you and your family, in the long run. Which seems to have been Rickard's and Jon's plans from the beginning…
    The view and proximity to the sea is obviously a big plus; but all the houses in that area themselves looked so sadly as square boxes with no soul or charm - not at all comparable to Casa Castle's charm and beautiful style - thus a real downgrading.
    In Marbella you also had several nice Swedish couples and families that you could socialize with, if you just wanted to. That’s important for the children, to have a stable network of friends around them.
    With that said, I also think that the 3rd villa was the best, especially the private garden to play in, for your small children. You can also build on it and renovate even more to your own taste, eventually, if you decide to buy it.
    Anyway, wish you good luck and all the best - everything will probably be just fine in the end.

      There is a reason Monaco is that expensive. And it's not a downgrade from their summer house as they will only rent a place in Cyprus.
      The new summer house in the one in Sweden which will be far better than the one in Marbella (and they will be able to socialize with swedes lol) and their "fiscal renting place" is also an upgrade from renting an appartment in Monaco to a villa in Cyprus.
      The only downside is that Monaco is still a better place taxes wise.

And Jon maybe also gets money from RedBull for promoting the brand and of course his company C`est normal.

      I think he said he got a pretty good deal on the Monaco apartment, so he wasn't probably paying that much (in relative terms, of course). I guess it would have been a good investment many years ago, but he probably didn't have his portfolio established and had many other expenses as he was younger and didn't think about buying there. Anyway, I thinks living in Cyprus wouldn't suit them well and they'd probably go somewhere else. However, I don't see why, if they need to live there this year for tax reasons, they don't just live with Rickard for a few months (I thinks Cyprus just requires 60 days) and then go back to Monaco or any other place with a better plan.

    It's one thing to pick a house but what's around it. Is it a group of houses completely isolated or connected to a nice town like Marbella. What's the civilization like. What's the medical situation like, how are the locals, are there swedish candy stores or even better, danish :) vegan restaurants etc. Where is the luxury civilization of Monaco and Marbella, where is the infinity pool view, where is the vegetation, where are the yachts. Might be better to invite Rickard back to civilization. This feels like a time share in boredom. A 10x step down and I imagine the house prices reflect that. Neighbors are turkey, syria, lebanon and israel.

      If you fall under the requirements of a specific law and you request it, you could pay 24% for some years, but only if you win less than 600.000€. However, you won't benefit from double taxation agreements. If not you could end up paying up to 45% (I guess that's what they'll pay).
