Strong words.
And, El Uruguayo, I think you're right. From what I hear, the horrible incident in Sosua last night really has no direct bearing on this particular topic. |
Not at all.
Those poor foreigners can do nothing. They are stuck. Most of them stupidly bought real property at inflated prices that they won`t be able to sell for years and years.
For them there is no way to escape. Without leaving behind and losing everything.
And for many of them the money they spent were their life savings.
These people are in horrible position. Like non-nativos farmers in Zimbabwe several years ago.
They should be very greatful to their RE agents who said - buy! buy! buy!
Like some respected DR1 members keep aggresively saying and advising even now.
