[QUOTE="Chapin81, post: 1756700, member: 39180"] You can buy land down there for $1300-$2800 an acre for farming/cattle BUT not anywhere near the Southern, east coast, or parts of the west coast it all has to be the northern part of the country. Anywhere in the areas I mentioned, it's too expensive. There really are no advantages to having foreign investors. I don't think people have the mentality that having investors brings more job opportunities, at least in the small towns, I don't think they think about these things. Honestly, when I roam around town, people don't say anything to me they go about their business I go about mine, I mean, I do stick out like a sore thumb because the town I'm in is mostly mixed mestizo Mayan descent, so they know I am not from around there, white skin. freckles, light brown hair, and a Redbeard gives it away, LOL. My family that lives in Guatemala is either from the capital Guatemala City or the eastern part of the country. Most retired people from the states live in these places, city of Antigua, which is awesome! and Lake Atitlan, which is also awesome! the rest live in the capital city. my parents have a townhouse in the city in a gated community; the neighbors are a retired couple from Utah, and the other next-door neighbors are from Taiwan. Check out this link to the homes that are for sale in Antigua and Lake Atitlan [URL]https://www.antiguafinehomes.com/en/[/URL] they have some pretty incredible houses, and the construction is solid but not cheap. FYI cost of living is cheaper except for fuel, it's about the same here in the states but less than California, where I hear it's over $6 a gallon. [/QUOTE]
