British Virgin Islands to Culebra
July 18th, 2007
Some people have inquired as to how we are going to get everything to Culebra (to the Palmetto Guesthouse) without spending a fortune on a container for shipping? My answer -
Closing on the Palmetto Guesthouse
June 22nd, 2007
You may have noticed from the brief [June 20] post below, it is now official, as of June 20, 2007 we own the Palmetto Guesthouse on Culebra. Remember, this post ONLY discusses the closing, so as you read through and get near the end of the day and you see how we have to race around keep in mind that we have had NINE months of this. Also, although I make light of the situation below this purchase would have never have happened if it was not for the efforts of our attorney, Ignacio, Sara at Metro Island Mortgage, Joe, and Sandra Wagner of Blue Horizon Realty who stuck with us when most other realtors would have been laughing at us. If you are looking to buy on Culebra we highly recommend her. Post starts now.
We Own The Palmetto Guesthouse
June 20th, 2007
After a very long day which started at 4:00a.m. Terrie and I finally own the boutique lodging on Culebra know as the Palmetto Guesthouse. It seems really strange and somewhat surreal to think that we are now homeowners and business owners, or business owners and homeowners, depending on how you choose to look at it. However, when I catch a glimpse of the monthly mortgage and hazard insurance payments, I get snapped back to reality very quickly.
