Maybe something like this.I will pay X with a down payment of Y.

But you won't know until you take that first step.To use a basketball analogy, you're dreaming about playing for the NBA when you haven't even tried to play a pickup game at the Y.

There will be a HUGE difference between "X" and "Y".

This is why most properties are 'bought' with a lease-hold contract of x years + y years extension (mostly 25-30 years + 25-30years extension).Bali is an organized wild-west with a lot of opportunities, that's for sure.

I turned y attention to the Pacific and selected inland cities like Merida and Guadalajara.

We would like something that can compute CAM and taxes, etc.

Get me closer to my goal of Y?

You mention having the 17 y o sign when they turn 18 in 5 months.

Quote from @Sipan Y.: @Bruce Woodruff Thank you Bruce.

However every people and every city has its own intricacies, what's normal in area X doesn't mean it's the normal in area Y.
