SECTION ONE - EXOTIC REAL ESTATE

How to Buy Property in Chile: The Legal Issues
 By Zandra Valenzuela Delgado
How to Buy Property in Chile: The Legal Issues - There is more than a little confusion on the Internet about how to buy property in Chile as a foreigner. There are many articles that cover the great deals in Chile, which often include a few fuzzy details about the legal requirements, but a surprising few that really dig into the legal issues involved.
 
Real Estate News From Russia
By Rhiannon Williamson
Real Estate News From Russia - Global online travel company Opodo recently placed Russia second only to Bulgaria in its industry respected report relating to predictions for the top ten emerging destinations for travellers in 2007; and Opodo’s opinion of Russia as a hot market for travel is supported by many other global brands and experts who also see the real estate and investment markets in Russia as emerging positively. 
 
Bali: Tropical Dream Homes
By David Collins
Bali: Tropical Dream Homes - Dreaming of stealing away to some far-off land?  You pack’n beach blankets or snow skis?  Will you need a crash course in Portuguese or just a brush up on your Mandarin?  When it comes to great escapes the options are endless, there are nearly as many where, what, and whys as there are people considering them.
 
Stop Dreaming - Buy That Land in St.Kitts
By C. Nicholas Guise
Stop Dreaming - Buy That Land in St.Kitts - We fell in love with this area, buying land a few years ago for $4/sf and there are many opportunities to still get in early before full off-island developments take hold. 
 
Dominican Domesticity - Come Live the Latin Life in Punta Perla
By Wendi R W McGowan
Dominican Domesticity - Come Live the Latin Life in Punta Perla - As the second largest nation in the Caribbean, the Dominican Republic occupies the eastern two-thirds of the island of Hispaniola and is roughly the size of Maryland, US.  Columbus discovered the island in 1492 looking for a seaway to India.  In fact, he like it so much, he decided to stay!  The odd thing is, Europeans have been coming ever since, but with less than 20% of the tourists coming from the US, it remains an undiscovered “secret” for Americans. 
 
The Best Way to Buy Thailand
By Leif Simon
The Best Way to Buy Thailand - It’s easy for you to own land in Thailand. All you have to do is invest 40 million Baht (about $1 million) in a project considered “useful for Thailand” (not real estate, mind you). That minor detail out of the way, you then have to select the land you want from a list of approved areas (you didn’t think you could buy anywhere you want, did you?) 
 
Undervalued Argentina: Four Ways This Inviting Nation Makes Very Good Sense Today
By Nikki Sheehan
Undervalued Argentina: Four Ways This Inviting Nation Makes Very Good Sense Today - Whatever your dream, you may be pleasantly surprised to find there's one nation where it's not simply attainable -- but remarkably affordable, too: Argentina. It's varied, beautiful, sophisticated… and undervalued, which means it makes a lot of sense right now -- whether you're in the market for a primary residence overseas, a vacation home, or simply a smart investment.
 
Speaking Spanish: An Essential Tool for a Successful Escape to Mexico and Latin America
 By Rob and Jane Mackler
Speaking Spanish: An Essential Tool for a Successful Escape to Mexico and Latin America - If you are going to live overseas, you need to be able to communicate.  Your language skills don’t have to be high-level, but you want to have the ability to really interact with the locals about everyday matters. This is what differentiates you from the average tourist. Sign language doesn’t do the trick, and do not expect that everyone speaks English. On the contrary, most people in the world don’t.

INTERNATIONAL REPORTS ON OVERSEAS RELOCATION
The author of this No-Nonsense Expats Guide to Asian Sales and Marketing has spent more than 25 years in China trade and Asian sales and marketing generally, and is based in Kuala Lumpur where he has been for 7 years now. He has set up a number of American and European companies out there, and has had great success at doing it, so what he has to say will be of interest to anyone who has an interest in entering the Asian market. He focuses on the day-to-day aspects of running a foreign office from a Stateside or European location, how to handle business meetings, establish distribution channels, deal with "entertainment" and the inescapable phenomenon of the bribe. This report is a compliation of 20 years of first hand experience.
Privacy - Your most important possession - They've Declared War  on Your Wealth & Your Privacy  ..and You Could be the Next Innocent Victim! - The Privacy Report - Regain Lost Privacy With The Lifeboat Strategy - Mark Nestmann was one of the people whose work I consulted when writing the book version of Escape From America. The ongoing erosion of privacy in the United States is the most important issue facing Americans today.  Without privacy, we have nothing, or less than nothing. Privacy is a human imperative because privacy of self is an important biological necessity of a sane and stable sense of self. It is a scientific fact that a rational person cannot have their autonomous sense of self (their sense of privacy of self,) compromised and still function as a healthy individual.  Thinking and creativity require the capacity to make independent judgments, an invasion of our privacy such as that going on in America today violates that capacity. It is more than important to reclaim our privacy, it is a biological necessity. Those who want to know about privacy and how to regain it turn to Mark Nestmann; he is the authority on issues of privacy, and he has a wide range of solutions to our loss of privacy problems.

Once a government is committed to the principle of silencing the voice of opposition, it has only one way to go, and that is down the path of increasingly repressive measures, until it becomes a source of terror to all its citizens and creates a country where everyone lives in fear.

But, increasingly, large-capitalization stocks are looking mighty attractive in the rough market environment we’ve been enduring since May. In fact, for U.S. dollar-based investors and euro investors alike, this is the best time since 1973 to buy global multinationals on the cheap. 
 
Why Belize Still Remains an Attractive Offshore Tax Haven - Even For US Citizens
  By ShelterOffshore.
Why Belize Still Remains an Attractive Offshore Tax Haven - Even For US Citizens - Following the various terrorist atrocities across the world in recent years, and partially as a result the on-going global battle against money laundering and drug trafficking, many of the higher taxation countries - such as the US and UK - have begun restricting and eliminating the attractions of tax havens for their citizens.

Island ResidencyObtaining Residency And A Second Passport From The Dominican Republic - Obtaining Residency And A Second Passport From The Dominican Republic - John Schroder has written numerous articles for EscapeArtist.com - He has devised a unique residency / passport program that is quick and effective. While not given mention by the so-called 'instant passport' websites, John's program results in residency in less time than any program we know about.  In addition, with John's program one ends up with a legitimate passport, unlike the sort of document that the 'instant passport' scam artists proffer.  Take the time to contact John and find out what he can provide in terms of residency. The feedback that we get from John's clients demonstrates that John has the speed record for providing offshore residency.  Getting a passport after residency involves method.  John knows the method.  If you want residency and a passport in hurry, go see John -

Ten Days Under the Tuscan Sun and in the Shade of Umbria
 By Adrian Leeds
Ten Days Under the Tuscan Sun and in the Shade of Umbria - It was simple enough to get there from Paris -- EasyJet was easy and cheap...a little more than a one hour flight to Pisa from Orly Airport at 6 a.m. without much ado or hassle for about 100€ round trip. The little Pisa airport was a simple, too. A two-minute shuttle took my daughter and I to our rental car at the Hertz lot -- a bright blue Fiat Panda that seemed to have "we're in Italy" written all over it. The luggage fit perfectly in the trunk and off we went.
