Buying a home made easy at International House

International House’s event ‘Buying a home in Denmark’ was fully booked out well in advance as 150 internationals and Danes flocked to its premises at Gyldenløvesgade 11 on November 25 to listen to experts talk about the different types of property and financing options in the Danish property market.


It was an informative evening as two visitors from Danske Bank, Henrik Skov Nielsen (centre), the head of International Private Clients, and Steffen Bovmand (right), a senior account manager, addressed those in attendance.
