As a member of our little group, I’d like to invite you on a RETA-only scouting trip to an early-in Caribbean resort community. By joining our exclusive trip, you can view first-hand just how far your dollar goes in La Romana. You will also find out everything you need to know about snapping up a piece of the dream Caribbean lifestyle for just $129,000.
There’s a special island on my beat where you will find incredible value in Caribbean real estate. It’s a postcard-perfect destination with white-sand beaches, calm waters and tropical sun. The natural beauty of this island has made it a hotbed for the filming of Hollywood blockbusters. As a member of Real Estate Trend Alert, you could own a piece of this Caribbean lifestyle for $129,000.
I’ve just got word on a special situation opportunity in the elegant beach town of Las Terrenas for one member of our little group.
This beach town is boutique. It’s free from high-rises and crowds. Development has been tightly restricted. Outside town there are a couple of larger all-inclusive hotels. But, that’s it. Everything else is refined. And it will stay that way.
In these alerts, I’ve told you about a strong early-in opportunity at the A-nah development in the buzzing Caribbean beach town of Playa Del Carmen. Now you can see it for yourself. I’ve arranged a special members-only scouting trip to Mexico’s Riviera Maya this September 6-8.
As a member of our little insider club you will know that I am constantly working on your behalf, negotiating early-in real estate deals with special pricing and terms in stunning destinations. To help new members (and to remind long-term members) of the significant advantages you enjoy as part of your RETA membership, I’ve put together a table outlining the exclusive discounts and special financing you’re entitled to in what I consider the strongest opportunities in places on the up.
I’m writing to tell you about a special opportunity in Costa Rica. My contact on the ground, Steve Linder, has arranged a private members-only trip to the Southern Zone for our little insider group. I’ve visited several times and I’m always struck by the area’s natural beauty. Stretching from the beach town of Dominical to the chic village of Ojochal, the Southern Zone is a rugged wonderland of pristine mountain tops blanketed in lush green rainforest that plummet dramatically toward the deep blue ocean.
It’s a rare occasion that 13 of our top real estate experts gather in one room to discuss profit strategies…But that’s what happened at this secret closed-doors meeting in Mexico’s Playa del Carmen. We recorded this private get-together of insider intelligence, recommendations and deals so you wouldn’t miss out.
As a member of our little group, you will know that Ireland’s economy and real estate market is in deep distress.
Property sales had all but stopped until firesale auctions came to the country in April 2011. After a series of these sales, market clearing prices were set. Sale prices were 50% to 90% less than peak prices. Today, we’re two years on… and you can now buy at prices comparable to these auctions through regular channels.
I’ve just returned from my first scouting trip to Panama’s mountain country of Boquete in five years. Back in 2007 to 2008, the market became frothy and prices too high. I stopped visiting until now. This time, my trip threw up some interesting opportunities. The most significant development I noticed in Boquete is how real estate prices are at their lowest in almost a decade. I’m working on some special situation RETA members-only deals there which I will be telling you about in the coming weeks.
An opportunity on Spain’s Costa del Sol has my attention today. But upfront I’d like to draw your attention to a two of things:
1. My lawyers haven’t reviewed the paperwork relating to this deal or the mortgage offer.
2. I visited this area on my last scouting trip and stood outside this building. But I haven’t seen inside.
Despite these two things, I think you should know about the opportunity today because my hunch is the units will sell out before I make my next visit.
