Making sense of "expenses" in RE listings

[Silvie]

Those are monthly "maintenance fees"

Don't forget if you are buying with dollars outside the country you are in a very strong position to negociate the price.

Hi Jimbob. Things have changed dramatically since December 2023....With the Frozen/falling dollar. Many/My landlord(s) prefer pesos and IPC index adjustment every month/quarter. The dollar isn't a good savings refuge NOW. Is behind the Local inflation.

Thanks for the reply Rich One, alas I don't think I made myself clear.

The paying in $$$'s was with reference to buying power and reducing asking price for the apartment/house itself and not with regards to expenses. Which you are right is almost exclusively in pesos in my experience over the last five years of renting here.

I was referring to Rental asking price, NOT expensas.

Ahh ok, thats the confusion then. I was replying to the OP who was talking about buying prices of apartments and not rental.
