    Hi friends, I have arrived in Argentina, no DNI yet, working on getting out of the Airbnb bubble. Seems a lot of places I have spoke to require almost triple the rent to move in after all is said and done, the fees don't bother me, I just want to know if this is standard practice. Thank you.

    Update, I got it done today in Arizona. It was extremely straightforward and easy. Much easier than apostilles I did in New York City many years ago. Just swear in front of the secretary of state with the documents. Notarize. Apostilled.
