I really appreciate that, thank you. It has been a painful 2 years and we're just trying to piece everything together again. Hope to have a full site redesign in the coming months, new hires, new contacts...fingers crossed!

I hate to promote my own services, but we do attend the Superclasico every year so it is not impossible, it's just pricey based on some of the factors listed above + very limited supply. And it can be a real pain depending on what the clubs are doing for security that year (closing gates early...

Congratulations!

If you cook frequently I highly recommend purchasing a nice chef knife. A good, properly sharpened knife just makes things so much easier and fun. It is also much safer. A dull knife may or may not cut the way it should. As for sharpening, it is a world in itself and if you're not into it you...

Just my 2 cents as a novice aficionado of kitchen knives and sharpening: Hard pass on these guys that go door to door especially if you have anything even remotely considered decent steel. You're better off tracking down your nearest local shop that sharpens (sometimes key makers/ferreterias do...

Door to door knife sharpener probably. Does it sound like this?

Infobae estimating up to a possible 40% reduction in USD pricing. https://www.infobae.com/economia/2020/05/24/las-inmobiliarias-retornaron-a-la-actividad-pero-ya-proyectan-una-caida-de-los-precios-de-hasta-40-en-dolares/

Anyone else seeing a very slow delivery date for funds? I set up a second Western Union bank to bank transfer and the delivery date is April 21? The first one after filing the declaration form was delivered in 4 days.

In my experience paying ABL is the responsibility of the tenant and typically stated so in the rental contract. As for repairs/fixes...this is very circumstantial. As you noted, normal wear and tear is indeed mentioned in most long term contracts as the owner's responsibility. It is a debatable...

I've watched the real estate market casually over the past few years and have seen listed prices steadily rise (who knows what is actually selling). Assuming prices are indeed rising and sales are still taking place, might this be because the economy is looking less and less stable and people...

Ran into the exact same issue, same card, same bank. Try $7,900- for whatever reason it worked today when it declined $8,000 seconds before.

This is dead on. My guess is that you are calculating the peso fee + withdrawal amount of pesos and dividing by the USD withdrawal amount? You'll prob end up with about 33/34. With a card that refunds those fees you should be getting 38-ish right now.

I did with Schwab a couple of days ago and no such luck. $4,000 pesos limit still.

What rate is Schwab giving right now?

Some people have been reporting $8,000 pesos withdrawals from Banco Frances with a less than $10 USD fee, but I've had friends try and only received the typical $4,000 max with 2 transaction limit per day. Might be the luck of your card. Banck Nacion seems to have the lowest transaction fee...
