Private List update

Paul & I sat down to discuss the Puerto Vallarta real estate investment market, and went through a detailed case study of a house for sale in the Zona Romantica of Puerto Vallarta.

My Medellin Realtor Mauricio & I were having beers on a Saturday afternoon when we decided to check out a potential listing, which is a finca about an hour away from Medellin. I followed him on his fact finding mission and we then ran the ROI on this Antioquia finca.

Patrick showed me one his real estate projects in Cali where he expects his investment to make at least 10% net capitalization rate. He shows us the project and we go through the numbers in one of Colombia’s largest cities.

I sat down with Calvin to get his on-the-ground perspective on the current protests in Panama with regards to the First Quantum Minerals mine and the potential implications on Panama as an expat jurisdiction.

I spent some time in Boquete, Panama, exploring the local real estate market. These are my key takeaways.

I spent a few days in a particularly interesting off-grid community in Paraguay that also has all the comforts of modern life. I met the founder and his wife and they took me around the facilities and amenities.
