    Politics HUGE Protest Tonight 7 PM! Corrientes/Pueyrredon & Santa Fe/Callao.

    I was reading an interesting post by someone that boils down to.... Excluding the Clarin channels who else honestly covered the protests? C5N were trying to reduce them to a protest about dolars and international travel, with analysts there saying how its a minority in Buenos Aires blah blah...

    Apartment Rental Is this the right time to buy a flat in Argentina?

    Everybody has a different idea of what a high price is, and what a good deal is- but if you can buy a 2 bedroom in Palacio Salvo for $130k US, I sure dont consider that to be "higher that BA".

    Again, Dont hold any peso over night!!!! Any seller of real estate are not forced to sell if the conditions are not ok, (price). Legally, on the paper, you can be forced to do the transaction in pesos, but, at that same time you just need to calculate in the risk and the loweer value of the...

    Economy Pessification of real estate?

    The real estate market is already officially denominated in pesos, look at your title of deed, escritura! It shows a small peso transaction/value amount. Nothing close to the real transactonal value of the property. The only thing Keratina could do, would be to force people only to list and do...

    Newcomer "Insecurity is just a perception"

    I'll post again later, but somehow the whole system is wicked : - Very low classes : Insecurity = no access to clean water, very poor access to education, very poor access to health services, in case of an abortion = finish on a backroom table with an improvised medic, racism (los negros)...
