I live in Belize, which has become expensive in the last three years. I am planning to move to Nicaragua with my wife and two daughters, and maybe we could also build our own house-not a bad idea. I even found info for expats on properly completing residency papers and getting taxes removed from construction materials.

Congratulations 😊!!! Just wondering, How you foreigners get to build outside your country of origin? I’m a Nicaraguan living in Canada my wife is a Cota Rican national, we decided to build a house for our retirement in Grecia CR , the Costa Rican banking bureaucracy makes it impossible to wire money from Canadian bank to Costa Rican bank took over year to finish the house , even though we speak Spanish and the builder and architect happen to be my wife’s cousins still makes no difference as the cousin explain that all monies coming from foreign banks go through the same process, Really annoying we have to show and declare how much are our earnings and what we are doing for our living. The house was built in 2018 , this year 2024 , we decided to upgrade our bathrooms 2 of them cost us 35000 $ Canadian dollars, again. Because of the banking system took 5 months to upgrade two bathrooms Costa Rican bank returns the money twice because the amount of ten thousand dollar is a lot of money according to the bank in Costa Rica., again, I like to know you guys get it done .,

What a great and informative video! I’ve been visiting Nicaragua since 2015, and will be looking at land early next year around SJDS to have a house built on. If you’re in the area, i’d love if I could meet you and your husband to gain some further insight from your experience!

Hello from Panama. Short question for all Americans. As a German, I translate English in my head. If someone says in English: WE DID BUILT. If you hire a company, isn’t that wrong to say we did build our house? I had already big discussions in Germany 35 years ago with some of my neighbors. They never touched a shovel or materials of their construction with their own hands. On the other side, you had a handful of us who actually did build our houses. Every single BBQ or wine fest we got together. And yes. We “handy guys” always joked about our “fancy” neighbors. “The only hard work you guys did was signing the paperwork with your contractors!” 😂. Looking at your pictures, I did see one issue I had, looking in Panama at constructions, they did the same. I was told in the municipal office from the civil engineer that most workers can’t get the corners right. That’s why they let space on each corner. Later they put wood boards on it and fill it with concrete. They do the same, constructing the walls. Every 3-4 meters a space. Wood boards and filling it with concrete. Inside walls are not properly connected to the outside walls like it should. In the end, you see cracks right where the walls and concrete columns are. Everywhere in Panama. - I did build my walls and foundation like in Germany. Foundation stripes, all piping in the ground and a 6 inch concrete slab on top. On top of that slab came my walls. In Latin America, they just make foundation stripes and start the outside walls on top of the stripes. Then they dig out the ground for the inside walls. Foundation stripes and “glue” the inside walls to the outside walls. After the walls are done, they pour 2 inches of concrete in every room on top of the dirt. - When the building inspector did check on my construction, they had only one complaint. “You using a lot of concrete.” The inspector came only one time. And yes. I had locals coming to see my construction. They asked if I could build their house. Because I am a retired old guy, I refused. I like to enjoy my house and the time I have left. I’m not starting a construction company. And no. Construction is not my trade. But I really know how to do it. 😊 $120 a sqft??? WOW. You guys are millionaires! That’s $1,080 a m2!! Seriously. There we go. The sky is the limit. Sorry. That just shocked me.

we just moved from Nicaragua, Madares beach area back in May. Fantastic place, absolutely beautiful. But we had issues with our contractor, so we didn't have a choice but to sell and move out of the country. Lost many many thousands of dollars. Glad yours went well, ours was a nightmare. Be careful who you hire if moving to Madares area.

@@914Porsche209 she's doing great! We don't have a fence. Fortunately, she is not a roamer and definitely an indoor dog. She gets walked in the morning, is quite content to be inside during the hot part of the day, then gets more exercise in the evening. Lots of people bring their dogs. Do you have a particular concern?
