We are and the Sea and can't seem to convince ourselves to be in a rental pool .... its just our little "Heaven on a paper plate" and guess just like it to be our get away and recharge place till we can retire there
I've never rented through a rental company in all the years I've been going, including at Las Palomas. Never had any real problems with things breaking, just small things like a coffee pot that didn't work, etc. Called down to the front desk and they've always fixed whatever problem we had - no issues.
JGatt-I agree with you 100%. If I owned a condo I wouldn't want any part of the rental pool either. I want to be able to leave all my stuff down there and just show up with the clothes on my back and the key. Now that is heaven - worrying about making up rental money to pay the utilities and HOA fees is just more stress. Although I do understand that back in the day when the condos were first built and people were buying multiple units they thought that people would be lining up to rent.
we just recently purchased the place .... and LOVE it and try to get there monthly ... not only to enjoy the view but to try and get to know the community and get involved in all the great stuff I see people doing.... makes for a tight budget but the REWARDS of relaxation and hopes of meeting the beautiful people of PP and expats makes it all worth it IMHO! Soooo wish I could retire there NOW!!
I wish I could afford it. I've run the numbers on our budget multiple times and unless we moved into a one bedroom apartment I can't do it yet. If I could find a part-time job I could work via the internet, I could make it happen. If anyone knows of anyone looking for a paralegal with corporate, real estate, and immigration experience, or any other type of legal work, let me know!!!!
I sooo hear ya as an ICU nurse I was like is there anything there I could do to survive just to be there full time .... sadly I found it couldn't so I will keep working away up here and take every chance I can get to get down to PP paradise when we can.
