Mortgage in DK

Hi,

I'm looking at buying a place in Copenhagen, I just would like someone to advise regarding mortgages.

If I took out a mortgage, do they have rules regarding repayments if I later move abroad? I am planning to stay here, with the flat as my prime residence, but I'd like to know what happens if for example my work situation changes (i.e. will I have to repay the entire loan).

Thanks,

G

Contact a lawyer, but I am pretty sure the rules are that if you cease to be a resident, you are required to sell the house. They have these laws to prevent wealthy Germans from buying up homes for vacation properties.
