Dimitri Svolos How The New ROP Land Titling Law Fiasco Can Hurt Panama's Global Image

The recent public forum held in Panama City last Thursday, October 29th, 2009, and last month’s public disdain and rejection of proposed law project 71 have brought the issue of ROP land in the forefront of Panamanian news. The merits of this new Project Law 71 and its predecessor Law 23 have been debated and analyzed in great lengths in blogs and online forums. What I would like to discuss here is the effect that this whole ROP Coastal and Island Land Titling “gong show”. In last week’s forum… Continue

Dimitri Svolos Panama's Air Accessibility Will Get Major Boosts

There is a really promising news in today's La Prensa regarding the long awaited and urgently needed international airport that will service Panama's central provinces (Cocle, Herrera, Los Santos).

Dimitri Svolos Is Our Investment Money Safe? A New Initiative Offers Help!

As an expat living in Panama for quite a few years now and owner of ROP land and other investments , I can only be appalled from the recent installment of "gong show shenanigans" taking place before my very eyes regarding the Island and Coastal Property titling legislation. The Martinelli administration is now backtracking on a campaign promise and is bringing forth Law 71 that aim to amend the previous Law 23 passed by the Torijos administration as its swan song. Eric Jackson of… Continue

Dimitri Svolos Possession Rights Property In Panama: Is It A True Investment Opportunity?

It is a well known and documented fact that Panama real estate prices in the country's interior have risen significantly (and in some cases prohibitively) in the last two years or so. This is more the case for beach front properties or properties that are now in the "second stage" of development; "first stage" being the initial investor rush that bought bare land and have since then subdivided or developed housing projects. The days of buying beach front land in Panama for cents per meter are n… Continue

Dimitri Svolos Dengue Is Knocking Hard On Panama's Door. What Can You Do To Prevent It

Health authorities are in alert for a possible Dengue epidemic in the country. The risk of an epidemic to be released is now high due to the fact that since 1993 (and up-to-date) 50% (!) of Panama's population has been infected (in varying levels) with the Dengue virus. In other words, Dengue has now reached critical mass in Panama's population and is about to "blow up". For these reasons, authorities request that the population reinforce precautionary measurements and avoid the breeding ground… Continue

Dimitri Svolos Panama Facts You Won't See Advertised

Over the years that I've been living in Panama I came to the realization that there are some inherent cultural and lifestyle differences that, if not understood and tolerated, will weigh heavily on the lives of every expat living here. Coping with a "cultural change" should be part of the preparation and due diligence prior to investing and ultimately relocating to Panama. However, a lot of expats move to Panama on a whim or under "false pretenses" supplied to them by slick advertisers and "smoo… Continue
