Mostlylost Posted August 25, 2021 Report Share Posted August 25, 2021 They want you to talk with an advisor AKA SALESMAN. Just like a timeshare they know that it is easier to close the sale in person at the moment of the pitch and the chances once you leave of a later sale fall exponentially. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyPanda Posted August 25, 2021 Report Share Posted August 25, 2021 I agree, Gringal. They are in the business, and every business knows its pricing long before the customers arrive. So the variables have all been figured out. Now, when they want you to know is a different story. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't live in the US, so we need to compare to the cost here. Otherwise, for that matter, you could compare to prices in Nicaragua and other places, but irrelevant.......

One thing that many people forget is the amount of space that you actually need as you get older. I purposefully bought a one bedroom/one bathroom one level house because it's perfect for aging in place. What about guests? I decided that I would rather pay for my family guests to stay two weeks in a local B&B than pay the extra $$$ for a larger home (and the maintenance that it entails) with multiple bedrooms & baths that are unoccupied for a large portion of the year. YMMV. imho, IF La Pueblita had some onsite short term rentals available to rent to members' guests, it might help some people downsize more easily. The pricing is under Membership types. I finally located it. A notation also states that there will be a adjustment of the monthly rate based on inflation, PLUS 0.5 % per year. I have a feeling if there is deflation, there is no adjustment..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was even a re-sale on the MLS a few weeks ago To my knowledge, it is all membership and monthly rental. The salesman said nothing to me about purchasing.

Would you please post the website that you found that information? I have been all over https://lapueblita.com/ and simply cannot find ANY information of the kind that you stated above. Edited to add: FOUND it under "Living Options" not under "How to become a member".

Seriously this is meaningless unless you know what you are getting for this price, and is it independent living or assisted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
