I read your posts on X every day. You and BowTiedMara have the best content on Buenos Aires. https://x.com/BuySellBA

But it sounds like this is just the same as others have done before him. I hope his party can be successful and give it more time to figure things out. https://www.lanacion.com.ar/ideas/la-version-libertaria-del-plan-platita-nid28062025/

I read your posts on X religiously. I learned 20+ years ago when you say something to pay attention! I made a lot of money with you over the past 20 years. I sold my other apartment at a great time in 2017 thanks to you. I noticed a big drop in tourism. My apartment is still renting but I had...

Correct about not able to pick your own lawyer on off plan projects. I had to use the developers when I bought my first 2 apartments. But when I sold one of my apartments after 2017, the buyer was a local that happened to be Mike's partner's father. He as an Argentine but Angie was the...

You are welcome @CraigM. When I first bought in Buenos Aires 20 years ago it was difficult to trust anyone. People thought I was crazy to buy there but I went there on vacation and stayed in one of Mike's apartment rentals and that is what got me sold. I saw what I was paying and then saw how...

@CraigM I can attest to how hard Mike worked. I am not a current client but I was a client very early on. I first hired him in 2003. And I hired him to buy 2 properties as I was so impressed with my investment and the returns I was making. I couldn't understand it as I would email him at all...

Yes same username. I think all his posts are all still there unless Igor deleted them which maybe he has by now. I can confirm this. Several of my posts were deleted from that forum that broke no moderation rules.

Amen. Great post @FuturoBA. I also posted on the old forum. I knew Mike was @earlyretirement on that board but we never discussed it. I never told him I knew it was him. And he never mentioned the forum. I just watched and read for 13 years his contributions to not only that forum but to...

I love it! I'd gladly move to Argentina if someone is going to be my sugar mama. Any takers?

It is crazy that a post like this even would need to be made. I posted on the old forum for 12 years under a different user name. I found out about that site from Mike who always told me he posted there. I have been a client of his since 2005. Anyone that knows Mike or worked with him will...

I doubt any country can turn their back on China at this point. Too powerful now. I think their future moving forward is potentially more powerful than the USA. Seeing what is going on there and some of the technology there is putting US cities to shame. They will be the country to watch...

I think there is a fine line of wanting tourism and then people abusing how easy it was. Things are changing in Argentina. I can feel it this time. I know with Macri they said this time is different but it did not feel genuinely like change was going to happen. This time with Milei it feels...

I have been a client since 2006. He was already around a few years when I hired him. I remember in his office in Recoleta he had a photo of him and Cristina and Nestor Kirchner at the Casa Rosada. And another with him and President De la Rua who was in the same office building as he was in. I...

I don't doubt that. I have been working with Mike since 2006. I purchased two properties with him. His clients know he had a grand office in Recoleta. Two floors of an entire building. There was an Embassy of a country on one floor and he had the third floor where I would see him and the...

Huge win for Milei. You have to give the guy props. He has balls of steel going it alone. For sure they will need to unite with PRO in October. Peronism still kind in 2nd place. https://batimes.com.ar/news/argentina/milei-wins-big-in-buenos-aires-city-vote-dethroning-macri.phtml...

I like many of your posts but don't understand your logic. You seriously have a chance of getting deported for committing a crime and cheating on taxes. I hate taxes but some of your posts are coming across as over the top. I would assume if you get deported back to the USA Bullrich could use...

Agree it is bad news. I talked to Lorena today and it is not looking good. They are preparing their clients for the worst. She said that she has many angry and frustrated clients right now. They are eager to find out more news. Guidelines are definitely going to toughen but what do you think...

They made me send a color passport photo. First I sent black and white and then they said it had to be a color photo. I am not sure if that photo is presented anywhere. If so, it could be linked but I didn't get the sense the Argentine government got that. But I am not sure why it had to be a...

Totally agree. This is a reason why you can't get carried away on a message board. To let someone get you so worked up that you go to these levels means that on both sides they are doing something wrong. I have seen the back and forth and not healthy. Typically when you need to just step...

My experience was the same as Johnny. However, when I sold my apartment in Palermo at the title deed signing they DID take my fingerprint. I had to provide it at the closing taken by the lawyer for the buyer. I'm not sure what they used it for but they did take fingerprint.
