$50 bucks? That's it? That seems like it is too little if they are always helping.

Thank you Johnny!!! Ok this is helpful! Can I DM you and ask you which lawyer you used? I would rather use someone to get my tax ID number. I tried but was a bit of a mess. They wouldn't give me it and one of the AFIP offices I went to was closed now. What about if you want to sell your unit...

Thank you!!! That is what I thought. I didn't think it could be much if you are doing it yourself but I wanted to make sure. I heard it's easier for people from Brazil vs. other Mercosur. Thanks for the great advice about letter writing. Maybe it will get easier with Milei.

@Darksider415 thanks for sharing all of this info. My friend is from Brazil and her spouse is going to be going through this process. What out of pocket prices did you have to pay the government? I assume since you did it yourself it was very easy. Any big fees? I will tell them to come and...

@FuturoBA did you ever get the title deed? I looked at a new construction in Palermo Hollywood today and is the same deal from the sounds of things. They tell me that the title deed won't be ready for a while as even though the building is done they didn't sell all the units. They say it can...

I didn't know that Pirate Bay was still around. Is it safe to download movies?

Visited Salvaje and enjoyed it. They open early.

I liked the coffee in Brazil better than here. I also liked the food in Brazil very much. @Darksider415 do you like the food better in Brazil or Argentina? I thought it was great in Brazil. Here it isn't bad but I was in heaven in Brazil.

Yep. BA is a blend of NYC and some European cities too. Just go around Plaza Serrano and you will see plenty of bars. But they are all over Soho and Hollywood. On Western Union it is easier just to go to a larger office. The one you went on Armenia is a larger store and always have many...

Some of the best advice I have read on this forum. Thanks @Darksider415! Amen. I have never seen anything like this here. It's not wonder the country is an economic mess. Everyone wants a paycheck but no one wants to do any work.

Everything here seems inefficient and difficult. I tried getting my CDI tax ID # and that was an ordeal! Everytime someone would tell me something different or tell me a form was missing or that I couldn't do something or that I needed to go back to police station, etc. It is like they will...

I agree about Buenos Aires being a great city. I still cant get over how little the salaries are but how all the purchases are cash. That actually gives me some comfort that things arent over priced because it is not like the US where people get overleveraged and go bankrupt here. You ain't...

Some foreigners just seem dumb! In researching a possible purchase in Argentina I have figured out that we aren't in Kansas anymore! Things here are very different. I see some dumb Americans doing dumb things here in Argentina. For example on the old forum I see posts like this below...

Woo hoo! That is terrific. Did you move in already? Was everything as expected? Did you have any issues at all once taking possession of it? Did the monthly expenses match up with what they said it would be? I am going through the process of looking at some properties but they did not...

@FuturoBA did you complete the purchase of that boleto? How did it go? I am looking at a new construction that is a few months out and I would be essentially buying a resale and I was curious how your transaction went? There really aren't a lot of properties for sale that are good. Many...
