User ID: 77661007 United States 10/12/2020 01:04 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | OP is right on this one. Feel free to look it up. In fact, over the last decade Nicaraguans account for a small percentage of the total illegal crossings into the U.S. Yes there are some but it's really not much. It's Honduras/Guatamala/El Salvador for the most part. All of which are North of Nicaragua. The only times caravans have tried to pass through here they get stopped at the CR border. Look up the migration routes and you'll see what I'm talking about. It's GuatEmala, with an E. The OP is from Nicaragua, so I told him to stop Nicaraguans from illegally migrating to the US, considering he is claiming it is so safe to be in Nicaragua. Why would I tell the OP to stop Hondurans or GuatEmalans from illegally migrating to the US, when he doesn't even live there??? I am a she. I am an American who has lived in Nicaragua for 15 years. I am a legal resident of Nicaragua. Are you dual citizen? How did you find your acreage, online? Doom is not dead. |

(OP) User ID: 79449875 Nicaragua 10/13/2020 11:18 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Can anyone share any good sites to buy property in San Juan del Sur or anyother place there where the rental income will cover expenses. It is time to start making the slow pivot south. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78176681 Thank you in advance Right now rental income will not cover expenses. Tourism took a huge dive in 2018 and covid hit before it could ever recover. Every business owner has had to toss in their personal money to keep it afloat. Only a few rental properties are profitable, and that is becasue the owners have spent years cultivating relationships with guests. There is no money to be made in rental properties and one of the reasons the SJDS area was hit so hard is because of foreigners coming in and driving up the prices and pushing locals out. Three years ago a shitty hovel of a commercial space (a dive by any standard in the rest of the world) rented for more per s.f. than I could have rented for a nice space in Florida. There are a lot of small businesses that one can start outside the tourist sector, but they require TLC by the investors. I think half the non-retiree expats living here work online in other countries. In SJDS and most of Nicaragua, the expats use FB. Even people who loathe FB set up a new account to ask questions and correspond with people about a move. Life in San Juan del Sur and Expats in Nicaragua are the two most popular pages. The search option should covert a lot of topics. |

I really know nothing of Nicaragua except for Iran / Contra. Thanks for your time! It is cowboy country up north. IDuring the war, the Contras were in the North. Years ago there was far more violent crime north of Managua than any other direction. Leon is a beautiful city, but super hot half the year. Matagalpa is in coffee country and it doesn't usually get about 85 and often it is in the 60s at night in the mountains. best thing is to spend some time meandering until a pace feels right - and then visit it during holidays to see if you like it during the crazy times, too. Granada and Leon have beautiful architecture, but we don;t have the beautiful masonry work and stained glass cathedrals. It;s not like Mexico or Guatemala, which are loaded with ancient ruins. |

Not sure when the rental market will come back, but pretty sure we are going to have a wave of expat fleeing the US, Canada and Europe. Problem.is most do not know how they are going to survive without income and will probably put too much if their savings in an eco lodge.

Does it come with a tortilla at least? Yea, i got family there, and like i said in another post, uncle got covid last year, diabetes, in his 70s, and recovered. How? he got treated with ivermectin, vitamins and other stuff. That's when i realized we were getting duped on this virus. And yea, nicaragua is, well, a dictatorship...Ortega got smart and realized the gringos and europeans brought the money in so he let the people have some liberties. Is not full blown communism like it was in the early 80's, but a lot of poverty. Nonetheless, those people are a lot smarted than the so called educated americans getting vaxxed. |

I live in Nicaragua along the border of CR (hence the CR flag). Quoting: Happy in Nature The virus has devastated tourism, but we have had several dismal years of tourism since the violence in 2018, so at this point we are kind of used to it. I live in a rural community with less than 10 foreign residents/winter visitors. Our little pueblo had protocols. Even the chainsaw repairman in the jungle had a bucket of water, soap and alcohol for his customers to use before entering the property. We took it seriously, but without laws and lockdowns. Costa Rica shut down their beaches (with police checkpoints to prevent access) and banned foreigners from driving until Aug 1. Nicaragua is the best place to be in a lockdown (especially for me as I have 263 acres of mountains, jungle, streams and waterfalls, and a lakeside beach with a view of an island made of two volcanoes). "No curfews, no lockdowns, no “stay at home”, no psychosis, no covid-calamities. There has been much talk about the Swedish corona strategy but the strategy of Nicaragua has been by far more successful, with many fewer deaths, no “economic rescue” for big banks and only limited damage to small and medium sized businesses. In the midst of the worldwide economic debacle caused by covid hysteria, food self-sufficient, small business based, impoverished Nicaragua, has seen its exports grow over 10% the past 8 months because it did not shut down its economy. Precisely because it sustained its economy, it has not had to take on huge loans in order to face the emergency. Thus, its foreign debt levels remain within a readily manageable range, below 50% of GDP. (On the other hand, the economies of neighboring countries such as Costa Rica, El Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala, are hurting badly with debt levels soaring)."

User ID: 71498518 Colombia 08/28/2021 01:51 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | You have a US flag, OP. I love Nicaragua. Yeah, the government is a bunch of tyrants, but the people are amazing and I love the rum. I dated a girl from a small pueblo named La Sauce a long time ago and I lived there for a few months. Great memories. It might well be that Nicaragua is fairing well because they've stayed away from the "jabs". But the poverty didn't have much further down to go. Nicaragua to me is like Africa in the western hemisphere. When I was there I saw people playing baseball with sticks and mangos, kids running around buck naked, horrible roads that were filled with farm animals and mud everywhere from the rain. Don't get me wrong - magical place, but the shots couldn't make them any poorer than they already are thanks to communism. Like I told my ex-wife, I said: honey, I never drive faster than I can see. Besides that, it’s all in the reflexes… |

User ID: 71498518 Colombia 08/28/2021 01:57 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | well, the Communist countries don't seem to be taking much of a hit at all. Exactly! Communist countries have already signed up their citizens to the NWO, so there's no need to force any agenda to all the red pilled people (who are in the severe minority), or push any agenda to the undecided. Nicaragua has a market based economy. It is not communist. It is not socialist. Private industry rules. BS, OP. I was there. I saw the signs everywhere, "Catolicismo, Socialismo, y la Patria!" Ortega is a dirtbag, wearing Hugo Boss suits while his people wallow in poverty. Nicaragua was completely destroyed by socialism, much like Cuba, Venezuela and Bolivia. No surprise that they're all the poorest countries in Latin America. BTW, when I was there last time, all the stores had this song on repeat and it gave me a massive migraine. Like I told my ex-wife, I said: honey, I never drive faster than I can see. Besides that, it’s all in the reflexes… |
