Apartment hunting in Port Au Prince, Haiti: Thomasin edition part 2

[@Empresskayyy]

I am about to pack my bags now 😍

[@ShowemRight]

Haiti made that FORBES Top 50 of the Most Beautiful places on Earth.

[@brotherloveinhaiti409]

Wow 🤩 new details, I need that article, because it’s so beautiful

[@carolevillefranche5912]

View is nice

[@Kindafu]

so are these on septic up in that mountain or…?

[@brotherloveinhaiti409]

@NP, I’m not quite sure which septic you are talking about, please rephrase the question.

[@Kindafu]

@@brotherloveinhaiti409 sewage management. are they using septic tanks and leach fields (which i know is a tough setup in mountains) or are they using a sewer system (which i thought was under developed there)?

[@marcrooseler]

One of the first questions when buying a home. Even with a sewage system, if available at that height, I would explore alternative sewage treatment options, to include dehydration treatment, water purification, probably self containment options as well. If some of these homes are a milly they can afford self containment as well as humidifying water making machines.

[@marcrooseler]

@@Kindafu I'm looking at the proximity of some of these homes, depending on the amount of bedrooms per property, leach fields don't seem feasible. Unless placed in their immediate yards, which presents advantages as well as disadvantages.

The view is everything 😍

[@brotherloveinhaiti409]

Everything 🎉🎊

[@ZenZenByTheWater]

Is this still available??

[@alexskatit4188]

The lack of roads and infrastructure in what are supposedly the better areas is just infuriating.

[@v-fiittv4780]

Well the lack of roads is because Haiti is under construction, it’s still being built

[@alexskatit4188]

@@v-fiittv4780 "Under construction"??????? With what money????? This lack of infrastructure issue is more than 100 years old and there has been no progress. It only has gotten worse as people are building even more badly built homes along corridors or on top of abandoned hills. The Haitian government is nonexistent and broke and is not constructing anything.

[@benhurguerrier9130]

Are you saying the whole house to rent @$416 /month?

[@brotherloveinhaiti409]

&benhur guerrier It’s an apartment

[@estherdurace5584]

I like the first place

[@brotherloveinhaiti409]

Me too 🎊🎉

[@marvinbroussard9907]

That view thou, can't beat by any other country. Haiti's views are stunners

[@giniolamy]

Hmm

[@ZenZenByTheWater]

Please drop his info

[@lisaray7587]

Nevrr

[@brotherloveinhaiti409]

Ok

[@negmarron1791]

That view is a seller

[@brotherloveinhaiti409]

True indeed

[@dmarcellon]

Damn and l am paying close to 3 grand a month in the US with no views😳 😕 😐 😒

[@brotherloveinhaiti409]

The perks of paying that price in Haiti monthly is a gated mansion with views and a pool

[@ramatgan1]

Don't use music it is annoying.

[@SWiseman]

Very nice. I'm interested in a property in a quiet area with wifi access and hot water available, secure, room to grow food that rents for under $500 a month.

[@brotherloveinhaiti409]

You’re looking for a fully furnished apartment (24-7 electric?) comes with Wi-Fi already?

[@SWiseman]

@@brotherloveinhaiti409 partially furnished is fine. Electric most of the day would be nice. Some solar is ok too

[@estherdurace5584]

It’s worth it , you should get it

[@brotherloveinhaiti409]

🥳🥳🎊🎉👏🏽👍🏾

[@brotherloveinhaiti409]

This is one of the many areas in port au prince. Outsiders come in and want to visit the stigma about Haiti, me I just turn down a block I drive by everyday and experience a new world. Higher in the mountains, nice homes, and the further you go up, you start going into uncharted territory, off-road.

[@alexskatit4188]

@@brotherloveinhaiti409 I know all the areas of Port-au-Prince. Yes people build nice homes behind walls. The lack of decent roads and basic infrastructure is not a stigma, it is reality. Outside of Belvil which is a gated and planned community and a few main roads, it is a city of corridor size unlined streets without sidewalks or proper drainage. It is an urban mess.

[@brotherloveinhaiti409]

&Alexskatit , it wasn’t taken as an offensive comment. Haiti is a virgin island so some of the main roads are virgins too😂

[@alexskatit4188]

@@brotherloveinhaiti409 I hear you my brother but Haiti is not virgin. It is the most ecologically destroyed country in the Caribbean. It lost its virginity decades ago and is now a "woman" of ill repute.🤣
