There are many thousands of grooms who specifically care for horses. Polo, or “The Sport of Kings,” as it is often referred to is frequently thought of as something that extremely wealthy people do for fun. And it is. However, Argentina is more affordable than most countries and there it is played at a higher standard than anywhere else.  Argentina’s has the worlds best polo teams has not lost against another country since 1932! Argentina offers an ideal setting for […]

For many years developers and investors alike have been speculating that San Telmo will become the new Soho due to the fact that many of the bohemian pioneers that made Soho what it is today have now been priced out of the market and are looking for […]

Syria being a good example The increasing effect of climate change should be a warning to all agricultural investors and this is doubly true for climate-sensitive tree-crops, most notably almonds which are considered the cannery in the coal mine. Almond trees: fragile flowers Almonds are the fragile-flower of the tree-crop world, only truly thriving in a limited number of Mediterranean-type ‘Goldilocks’ climatic zones where the environmental […]

Why would anyone go through a campaign that lasts a number of weeks, costs a few thousand dollars, and requires keeping your property fastidiously clean to then say, well, we don’t have to sell? Why would […]

What happened had to happen. After a year in which the Argentines faced a devaluation of the peso of 50%, and the doubling of the price of the dollar, a surge of inflation and the virtual disappearance of mortgage credit, the property price bubble began to deflate. In one year, the average real values at which houses and apartments are sold fell 10.2% in dollars. The data comes from the Association of Notaries Public of […]

There are of course advantages, disadvantages and tradeoffs associated with every marketing approach; and the best strategy for the marketing and sale of a specific property will vary based upon the ownership objectives and the particular property. One approach, which can be the optimal method in certain instances, is private, pre-marketing offers. This sales technique can be advantageous to a vendor of a high-value property wishing to sell in a […]

After US President Donald Trump imposed new tariffs on Chinese goods, Beijing punched back with duties on US exports including most of its $20bn in agricultural commodity sales. Soybean exports, worth $12bn in 2017, were hit hardest. The oilseed’s conquest of farm fields in the past 20 years has largely been down to US farmers gambling on China’s demand for protein to nourish pigs and chickens. Beijing raised tariffs on soybeans by 25 percentage points in July, pricing the US […]

A central tenet of the co-working phenomenon was the assumption that the mingling with other real estate salespersons would expose them to a bounty of new transactions. With that in mind, many brokerages have taken the bait to tear down office walls, dismantle cubicles and remove any sense of workplace solitude and more important privacy.
