Granada - Nicaragua’s
Grandest City - Why
Granada? - One more thing: If the old Spanish colonial structures in
Granada appeal to you as much as they appeal to me…you can buy one for
$80,000 to $100,000 (it’ll need a lot of work)…or you can spend as much
as $200,000. A few years ago, these places sold for $40,000 or $50,000,
or less. The trouble is there aren’t many of them. The city burned in 1856
and was rebuilt according to the same plan. Most of the colonial-style
houses are 150 years old. You can count on your fingers those that date
back more than 400 years. From The Best of International Living -

secrets to investing in real estate in Nicaragua - The word
is is out: “Nicaragua is the new Costa Rica” but with prices 35-55%
lower than its southern neighbour. Nicaragua is well and truly bouncing
back from its troubled and often misunderstood past and beginning to transform
into a sought after investment and tourism destination. Jun/06
Investing
in Nicaragua: Welcoming warmth and profit potential - Investing

Law 306
makes Nicaragua the best place in Latin America to open a hotel, restaurant,
or other business - Investing
in Nicaragua - Just six moths ago, Nicaragua enacted the most attractive—and
most aggressive—tourism-incentive law in Latin America. If you’ve ever
toyed with the idea of owning your own B&B…running a sailboat charter…leading
adventure treks into the jungle…dishing up meals in your own restaurant…or
operating any tourist-related business…Nicaragua might be the place to
do it...and now might be the time. by Jennifer Stevens
Memories
Of Cuapa -Passing
Through The Interior Of Nicaragua ~ By Benjamin Murphy - Passing
through a landscape rich in mysticism and stories is what you often find
when you travel in Latin America. The surreal is an everyday occurrence
and it makes traveling an exciting experience. Crying trees, mountains
with donkeys on top of them and glowing statues of saints are all part
of people's everyday lives. Feb./03
Nicaragua ~ Central
America’s Hidden Treasure ~ by Jason Fortin - Sandinistas.
Communism. Civil War. Words that do not exactly go hand-in-hand with tourism.
Unfortunately, these are all words that many still associate with Nicaragua,
and the main reason tourism hasn’t flourished there. Times are changing,
however, and now there is even speculation that Nicaragua will become the
next Costa Rica. I have recently returned from a vacation in Nicaragua,
and it’s my selfish hope that it never does become Costa Rica North. Although
I have been to Costa Rica twice, and love it for its natural beauty, I
dread running into so many Americans and Europeans (and paying gringo prices)
while trying to explore a foreign land. Oct./05
Nicaragua
~ Exploring
The Undiscovered ~ by Vinnie Apicella - “Nicaragua? Why Nicaragua?”
The question’s been asked over and over by everyone I’ve come in contact
with since I returned from vacationing and investigating investment opportunities
at a new development called Rancho Santana in this economically down-trodden
Central American country. A year earlier, I’d have asked myself the same
question. Now, my response would read something like this: “Because I see
a good opportunity there, and a country abundant with untapped natural
resources and beautiful coastline that’s been compared to the likes of
California in its infancy or more recently, an up and coming Costa Rica.”

The Best Real Estate Potential in Central America - Nicaragua:
The Best Real Estate Potential in Central America - If you fantasize
about a private retreat that sits perched on a rocky cliff overlooking
a roiling ocean… a place where you can stand on your deck with a cocktail
in hand and watch the sun set pink and orange beyond a watery horizon…

Nicaragua's
“other” coast: A long term investment play - The
last undiscovered islands in the Caribbean - Nicaragua's "other coast"
(the Caribbean) has long been the poor stepchild of this part of the world.
Its little Caribbean cays fall south of those of Honduras, Belize &
Florida - south, and, to date, off the typical traveler's radar screen.
We believe this will change, though. For the past few decades, tourist
development in this part of the world has made its way predictably south
from Florida's cays. This southward trend will continue, over the coming
decade, we predict, to include Nicaragua's outlying Corn Islands.
Nicaragua
update: More
tourists & greater moneymaking opportunities than ever before -
"When I tell people that my favorite country in Central America is Nicaragua,
they think I've got a screw loose." - A serious case of bad press
- "Nicaragua remains one of the most misunderstood nations in the world.
This country is not in the midst of a civil war...not a Communist
state...and
not a "miserable hell hole" as one acquaintance of mine
recently suggested. I was just there, for the third time in as many years.
My impression? This place is more lovely and, more importantly, shows more
promise and offers greater opportunity than ever before. by Jennifer
