Podcast – The Central America Real Estate Show Vol. 7: Beautiful Boquete, Panama
Located 1200 meters (3900 feet) above sea level, this little Panama mountain boasts the perfect climate. It is obvious why it is such a hit with expats and retirees. Great weather, lots of restaurants, and a walkable, small town feel.
Paul McBride joins the show to discuss Boquete’s enduring appeal and why you should consider it even if you want to be near a beach. We also talk about the real estate market, how the area has changed over the last decade, and where you should be looking for investment opportunities.
Additionally, Paul tells us about the costs to build a home as well as local market prices and why he has called Boquete, Panama home for over a decade.
