Very true. That is common. I also dated a Russian girl in LA a few years ago. I was 20 years older than her. Russian woman are very mature. They like stability and more so looking for a good man based on my experiences.

I was wondering this and asked my friend who has a restaurant in Argentina and he told me that there are so much exported beef now. He said last year had the highest exports in 55+ years. When there is this much demand it makes local supply get reduced. The higher prices makes more and more...

Are any of you buying stuff on Amazon and shipping to Argentina? I have heard mixed results with some people on X saying they are getting things to their door and other expat friends telling me their stuff is still getting held up in customs...

@Larry is correct. It has steadily gone downhill for the past several years. I do think Argentine beef was better and still is that is grass-fed and high quality but my friends in the industry tell. me that is less than 25% of the beef from Argentina now. Most of it is just grain fed and...

I saw this today. I had no idea of his background but I figured he must be a big democrat when I read him gushing over CFK!

Impossible to root out corruption. @BuySellBA posted about this a few weeks ago. https://www.clarin.com/rural/inexplicable-apuro-detectan-irregularidades-subasta-emblematico-edificio-inta_0_33BTBgsRxy.html

Happy new year to all. I'm still as much in love with Argentina today vs. my first trip so many years ago. I feel fortunate to own a place in BA and look forward to spending more time there.

That is plenty of money to live well in Argentina between the two of you. Even in Buenos Aires which is the most expensive city in Argentina you can get by on $3,725 USD per month. Easily.

Overstaying in Argentina has been going on for years. No worries. Happy new year.

I read about that yesterday. Great news that more and more companies are taking advantage of the RIGI program. Read it in this post. https://www.expatsba.com/threads/the-rigi-is-already-impacting-argentina-and-the-state-is-beginning-to-withdraw-8-affected-sectors-and-a-surprise.4277/post-30198

Initially I just wanted to cover the carrying costs and was ok to break even but it has actually been a great investment over the years. My place has paid itself off 2 times since buying it. Same as you @FuturoBA. I wasn't looking to maximize profits but now it is fun to make money with it. I...

I think condo fees have jumped across the board on most buildings new or old. Mine have also gone up over 200% year over year. I bought mine a long time ago and it has rented out very well. I have a good property manager. I got lucky. I have had good management since I bought it with the...

You have good timing if you bought last year Johnny. Prices will never be that low again on real estate. I am kicking myself for not buying another apartment. I just rented my apartment in Palermo Soho for one year to a company. So I will need a place to stay on my visits. I will contact you. I...

So many billions are being committed to Argentina. The effects will probably take several years to feel but the market is pricing for all of these things. I plan to fully retire in Argentina within 2 years. It will be curious to see how things are doing by then.

Dealing with local owners is a royal pain in the ass. Before I bought my first apartment I rented in some long term leases and it was always painful until I found a property management company that was great. I found my apartment that way and then hired them to buy a place the experience was so...

It's remarkable how cheap exported Argentine wine is in some places. I have not seen wine from Argentina much in the past in the UK. I go often for work so this must be new. Great to see so much stuff there. The USA is just starting now. But it is severely marked up in restaurants. I was at...

Thanks for taking the time to post. Just listened to it. Makes me respect Milei more. The man has a plan and sticking to it.

Wow that is a fraction of what they charge in the States. A friend just got it done in LA and he spent a fortune. My property manager of my apartment did it at Hair Recovery in Buenos Aires and was very happy. He looks like a different person with all that hair.

I don't know anything about this but in many places it's not the actual original amount but the penalties and interest that could kill you. Doubt Argentina is going to throw anyone in jail for this sort of thing. They would have to lock up most people that bought a property. Still this is the...

Talk to @BuySellBA and @earlyretirement. I hired them a few times now. I hired them a while back when they were ApartmentsBA and they managed my apartment. One of the owners still manages my property and it still rents consistently. I also used them to sell a few properties there in 2017. It...
