Dubai is dead, any alternative to the free zone 9% tax? by
@Marzio
, so here are a few of the places...
Full disclosure:
- I chose these places but as one of the many usufructuaries! Peruse this: What Is Usufruct? How It Works With Property Use and Example - This may come in handy for @369 and his beneficiaries.
- I usually purchase properties through Mercado Livre /Mercado Libre (MELI) Bloomberg - Are you a robot? because I own stocks in MELI and they act as a wonderful escrow agent. No chance of getting "ripped" off.
- There are 2 other options besides MELI to purchase homes and I'll disclose them later. One is a US Bank and the other is the neighbors.
- Prices are advertised prices. You can easily get 20 % to 40% off the advertised price depending on how you structure the deal. The more friction the higher the price.
These places have been chosen because the neighborhoods have people like the Ben Rickerts of the world in them,
These neighbors choose to stay the f*ck away from "civilizations" and want to be left the f*ck alone. Also, weapons are easily and legally obtainable in these places. Also, all your neighbors are armed, so there isn't much of a survival chance an "outsider" can come and take over.
In NO particular order...Let's start with those that are in neighborhoods of the usufructuaries, so they have been vetted:
- Punta del Este, Uruguay Casa en venta o alquiler | Punta del Este. Ref #Z236B3 - infocasas.com.uy
- Bariloche, Argentina https://www.zonaprop.com.ar/propied...mbientes-costa-del-lago-melipal-52615813.html
- Ciudad del Este, Paraguay VENDO MODERNA CASA EN PARANA COUNTRY CLUB. Ref #I79C63 - infocasas.com.py
- Bariloche, Argentina - where a friend just purchased: https://www.zonaprop.com.ar/propiedades/emprendimiento/ememhoin-cerro-lindo-el-estribo-52441525.html
- Jurerê Internacional, Santa Catarina, Brazil: Casa na Rua das Tibiras, Jurerê Internacional em Florianópolis, por R$ 7.200.000 - Viva Real
- Blumenau, Santa Catarina, Brazil: Casa 320 m² em Itoupava Central em Blumenau, por R$ 1.855.000 - Viva Real
- I always suggest/recommend that potential home buyers take a vacation down there & rent first and see if the neighborhood "accepts" you: Mansion De 4 Dormitorios En Suite Y Departamento Salida Al Mar Carilo - U$S 19.500
Note: Obviously, I prefer Europe, especially Monaco, and Switzerland, or Asia, but Europe's demographics are changing and I don't feel like standing trial on a self-defense charge. My buddy and I got into a street fight with three "non-Europeans" in 2006 when we attended a conference at the Villepinte in Paris. Imagine staying at Le Bristol and having to throw hands with some street guys at midnight coming back from dinner.... Yeah...I'll pass. stupi#21
Asia, has China in it, and on the off-chance, there is a "problem", I don't think I'll be safe. Let's face it, if there are hate crimes...I can't pretend I am Asian or from Asia.
🙄
Also, I can't have weapons "legally" in Asia. cry&¤
(A) Regarding the 2 other options (mentioned in #3) the "neighbors & residents" use a platform where they can receive any amount of crypto (up to $50M) and can convert it to the local currency (or US$ or €).
(B) The neighbors can also accept crypto (after they've welcomed their new neighbor) and can provide liquidity to purchase a home or other large expenses.
Which is the reason I no longer try to onramp or offramp on exchanges or P2P. I do keep swapping excess USDT for Bitcoin though and this is solely thanks to the OCT forum. Special thanks to
@JohnnyDoe and
@wellington for inculcating that USDT/USDC is NOT a safe anything. I only keep what I need to trade with my suppliers. All excess I convert to Bitcoin. The OCT forum has been a real lifesaver!
😉
Note: I can't provide those above-mentioned services to others, since I am also a beneficiary of the largesse of these "neighborhoods". One of the "terms of service" is not to act as an intermediary to outsiders. cry&¤ Even if I wanted to, I can't profit from this. I have to respect their wishes otherwise they'll cut me off and I'm not looking to quarrel with my "neighbors".
You just have to take a vacation there to understand & experience it. Always best to contract a Spanish (Spaniard) or Portuguese (from Portugal) interpreter to go along or meet you there so things can go smoothly until you reach your destination (if you are not fluent in the spoken languages).
Start with Punta del Este in Uruguay. For example, it's only US$900/month to get your boots on the ground.
😉
Example:
Alquiler Invernal Frente Al Mar - 2 Dorm Y Medio - Todos Los Amenities - U$S 900
In these neighborhoods, everyone is affluent and either studied in Europe (including the UK), the US, or at an International Baccalaureate school. English is NOT a problem to these people. In most of these neighborhoods, their quotidian language is either German, Italian, or English
😉
Note: The minimum wage cashier or the taxi driver does NOT speak English! Don't complain about them stupi#21
For example:
The German Language In Blumenau Brazil
Good luck to you!
PS. Of course, there may be better options out there. It's an individual endeavor. Of course, if I were Chinese, Arab, or African, I would NOT choose the above-mentioned places for obvious reasons.
