Real estate seminars offer a wealth of knowledge and networking opportunities for anyone interested in property ownership, whether you're a first-time buyer, seasoned investor, or industry professional. In Aruba, these seminars are especially beneficial given the unique landscape of the island’s real estate market.
This past June, Bold Properties Aruba partnered with Fundacion Plan di Bida to host an enlightening seminar at the Renaissance Convention Center. This event aimed to educate and empower those interested in property ownership in Aruba, providing valuable insights and practical advice from some of the most respected names in the field. Notably, this was the first seminar of its kind where we also emphasized the importance of financial power and achieving financial freedom.
Opening Remarks and Warm Welcome
The event was opened by our lovely agent Joase-Ann van der Biest, who is also a certified life coach. Joase-Ann set a positive tone for the seminar, highlighting the importance of personal development and empowerment in the journey toward property ownership. Her motivational introduction inspired attendees and underscored the holistic approach of the seminar, combining real estate education with personal growth.
A Comprehensive Learning Experience
The seminar featured presentations from our expert brokers, Aileen Kelly and Jenniffer Figaroa, who shared their extensive knowledge of the local real estate market. They covered topics such as current market trends, investment strategies, and the best practices for buying and selling property in Aruba.
Joining them was Paloma Tromp, Director of Fundacion Plan di Bida, who focused on the topic of financial power and what it means for prospective property owners. Paloma highlighted the significance of financial literacy and provided attendees with strategies to manage their finances effectively, invest wisely, and ultimately achieve financial independence through real estate.
Expert Advice from Industry Leaders
Louisette Halley-Vlinder from Arubabank provided crucial information on financing options, highlighting the bank’s commitment to supporting real estate investments in Aruba. Her presentation included details on mortgage products, interest rates, and the steps to secure financing for a property purchase.
Notaries Ralph Yarzagaray and Ted Johnson were also on hand to discuss the legal aspects of property transactions. They offered clarity on the necessary documentation, legal obligations, and the role of a notary in ensuring a smooth and lawful property transfer.
Additionally, Marilynn Dirksen from the Department of Infrastructure and Planning (DIP) provided valuable insights into obtaining land in Aruba. Her detailed explanation of the DIP’s processes and requirements helped demystify the bureaucratic steps involved, giving attendees a clearer understanding of how to navigate these procedures.
Financial Power and Freedom
A unique and significant aspect of this seminar was our emphasis on financial power and achieving financial freedom. Understanding and leveraging financial tools and resources are crucial steps in securing property and building wealth. Paloma Tromp's discussion on financial power underscored the importance of financial literacy, budgeting, and smart investment strategies, empowering attendees to make informed decisions that support long-term financial health and property ownership goals.
Networking and Community Support
One of the standout benefits of attending a real estate seminar is the opportunity to network with industry professionals and fellow attendees. This event was no exception, as participants had the chance to connect with brokers, bankers, notaries, and government officials. Such interactions can open doors to new opportunities, partnerships, and valuable advice that can significantly impact one’s real estate journey.
