Sounds like an unforgettable experience! I was looking at pictures and they go almost everywhere! Do you know if they make trips to other provinces or nearby places?

Hey, Kurt. This is extremely stressful to be stuck away from your family whom you can't protect. I'm sorry to hear this. If they were in Buenos Aires I would be happy to jump in and do what we could to take care of them. As a life-long gun owner and supporter of gun rights I have to say that...

Really? $4,000US is $18,800AR at the official rate and $24,400AR at the blue rate. You cant live comfortably on that? ;) What am I missing?

I'd have to concur with a lot of what has been said. I have a family of 4 - (2 kids under 13). We live in Belgrano - one of the more expensive places to live in Buenos Aries and we live well on $4000US per month including rent, food, private school, eating out, etc. I manage the Argentine...

All new electronics should look used. Like they said, load software, photos, screen saver of you at a picnic with your drunk friends on the personal one. On the professional one load a screen saver of any large company's logo, and a bunch of work-type files. Try not to bring more than 1 of any...

This is a follow-up to a previous question; Is it possible to get credit here in Argentina (say, to buy a house) if you have your income from outside Argentina? For the question, consider that one will declare their external income for tax purposes. Many thanks!

Here's the rumor. CFK will either annul Arg passports or limit the times per year Argentines can travel outside of the country. It's just a rumor, but it follows perfectly the Venezuela plan.

As the situation becomes more challenging, my US Passport gains increased significance. :) Query: I possess both a DNI and a US Passport. Which document is advisable to use when departing Argentina, and which one is preferable for my return? Thanks!

And, I would agree with some of the other posts. You can't be a bambi here. Be respectful at all times, but hold your line! Otherwise you will get taken advantage of. Use this event as a warning. You have a relatively easy case. A worst case might look like you owe the employee more than your...

As any owner of a business here will tell you, the laws are completely on the side of the employee. We caught an employee stealing - had it on video. Dismissed the employee who then sued. Went to court and showed the video. Decision in favor of the employee because the employee didn't know we...

I'm looking for a clothes dryer. Can you give me your personal experience with particular brands of dryers here? Quality of construction, drying ability, etc? Many thanks!

I'll let someone else tackle the math corrections. However, if buyer and seller have accounts outside of Argentina it's a non-issue.

I'm not wiring funds from Argentina to an offshore account.

Everything is in white. The area would be Recoleta and / or Palermo. Thanks!

Hi everyone. Are there any Argentine Real Estate Agents on this site? Or, can you recommend a great local agent to me? Requirement; have a bank account outside Argentina. Thanks!
