This was ultimately why we didn't end up buying real estate in Buenos Aires. The property we did like the owner demanded cash.

We are still absolutely shocked that people selling their property wouldn't allow their broker to show it while they are out of town. This seems bizarre to us. I agree with you about working with good people. I am working with the realtor that Buysellba recommended and we are very happy with...

Oh my. We had no idea this was such an issue there in Buenos Aires. We always hear BA is the "Paris of South America". We go to Paris often and don't see this issue there.

Agreed!! Our broker has contacted many listings and many times they say the same thing. The property is no longer for sale but we have another option! Classic bait and switch. Here is a novel idea. If it's not for sale anymore remove the listing!! Yet others our broker has tried to see it...

Wow! That discount must add up but unless I am reading it wrong it sounds like a hassle to transport so much money as the biggest commonly used bill there is only worth $1 dollar? We probably will just use credit cards and not worth the hassles of going to get money at Western Union. Is there...

We have looked at some new construction properties but price on them is higher than older properties. BuysellBA mentioned to us that if the seller has an account outside of Argentina it is legal to wire directly to the buyer and that has been a possible option in one of the properties we are...

I have been looking at the weather and it does not look too bad. We have had our broker go to a few listings but it has been annoying during January some properties listed the owners wouldn't allow ANY showings as they were on vacation. Seems strange to me. Our broker has done some video walk...

It's not just about rolling back laws; it's also about weird, pointless stuff like making judges wear black robes and use a gavel. I mean, sure, I enjoy The People's Court and The Judge as much as the next person, but when you look at the total chaos in the country right now, how do you think...

Try using Remitly. We just used it to send our nice realtor some money for Christmas. It took a few days but he got it with no problems.

Hello @FuturoBA. Yes we are using our own broker recommended by a dear friend of ours from Tampa that used this broker. He is very good. How we do it is he sends me listings based on the criteria we gave him. Also, we will send him listings we see that look good and he will schedule them...

This is on our list to visit when we come in February/March!

All of those real estate websites are horrible. I started using ReMax and theirs is better than most but doesn't have all the listings. I mostly use ZonaProp but they have double or triple listings of some properties. I like that new construction but it's not big enough. We need 200 m2 size...

Yes we are looking at larger places. We have adult kids and we want a place big enough to fit all of us when they visit. Prices are all over the place. Plus on that one we would need to renovate it. I don't think there is a hard and fast rule on price per m2. We have seen prices all over...

We are looking at things like this with at least 3 bedrooms. We will just wait until we get there. We may go in February now as we heard it's totally dead in January. Many owners gone and not home then. https://www.remax.com.ar/listings/venta-ph-4-amb-222-m2-palermo-hollywood-terraza...

Yes! We are using that website. We know how to use it but the owners or their agents are flaky. We don't want too small of a unit. The ones we like are around $400k USD.

Can you all kind people give me an idea what healthcare premiums are like in Buenos Aires? Do we need to have permanent residency there to get coverage? I guess it's called having your DNI?

Thanks so much for sharing this very personal referral. Something most of my friends don't talk about. Susana sounds amazing! I will contact her after we move to Buenos Aires. IF we can get any realtors to actually show us something.

Couples massage for so cheap? All of these prices sound too good to be true!

Thank you! I am loving these prices. This looks like a nice big salon. I will check it out in January. Thanks for posting. I will also have my husband get his haircut there. He pays $35 USD in Tampa!

Cut and color for 32,000 pesos???!
