Quote from @Paul De Luca: @Rance SmithWow, that's nightmare situation you went through...Just curious, did you do a sewer scope inspection prior to closing on the building?

The border on the South side of our property is the Belize river. 

This is why in the "proper" construction world, the GCs have many meetings with their subs to de-scope the bid.

I still believe that if you are not either from Mexico, or at least a Spanish speaker - you should leave investing south of the border alone.

I'm in a group for STRs in Delaware, and we had one lady get scammed out of around 4K.

Texas division of banking (whatever they are called in that state) probably should have done something but appears they didn’tDHS actually is one of the departments that prosecuted criminal financial crimes - most think of them only as border patrol as their major function but they also investigate this type of activityhttps://www.dhs.gov/hsi/investigate/financial-crimeTime will tell if these cases ever go anywhere but for those involved probably just happy someone finally picked up a phone to atleast listen to IRS criminal is another good one to sic on them..

However, given that Trump is very big on "sealing" the border, could it impact the steady population growth these towns are having.
