Nicaragua has some “interesting” concepts in regards to property laws and the right to “own” property.

One of the problems in Nicaragua is that they have an interesting court system and police system. Think corruption and if you are in possession of a piece of property and the police don't feel obliged to move you off it, its yours to use as you see fit.

When I was last there I saw “beach homes” that had been abandoned in various states of construction. Some had squatters living in them, others were just vacant.

Nicaragua is not a country I would want to go to live in as a foreigner. Oh, and when I was last there, it was clear that the ruling party doesn't care about the people, only about making sure rebellion doesn't sweep the rulers out of office. Nicaragua was deeply in debt to Venezuela, and not the economic wheels are coming off that bus, so Nicaragua is in for hard times and that could spell civil unrest.

I don't want to be on any bit-coin bump list.

Anyone who would move to a country without the rule of law is a fool.

My goal was to retire in Honduras, that is, until the drug lords took over.......My BIL is from there and the only way he vacations there now is via a direct flight to Roatan........They won't step foot on the mainland.

You mean as opposed to the corruption in the USA where if a developer wants your property they bribe a politician to condemn your land and then hand it over at pennies on the dollar while our corrupt courts sign off on these deals?
