Especially in that climate,
empty rentals don't keep
freezers, a/c's/fridges
running. [Cost prohibitive.]

We don't know for sure they
own any other properties or
even the one they live in.

Of course what you say is logical. I'm only speculating as to what VDS might've done. If he had a vacant rental, he coulda stashed Natalee's body there.

I have been following the case via Greta from the start, but only sporadically over the last week due to family obligations so i'm playing catch-up with you guys right now.

Ok, posted earlier that Van der Sloot was moving money around in I think 13 bank accounts. Posted today. From what I've read before somewhere in the last 6 weeks, Van der Sloot is old money in Holland. Family owns land which if I remember is a premium in Dikeland, my apologies to people with alternative lifestyles.

It would stand to reason that he would invest his money in something on Aruba, why not real estate. I think he owns these properties and uses this company to book them so he doesn't have to go through the headaches. All he would have to do is call and say, "Helga, vee are having friends from the old country come on island for an extended stay. Yes, they are here to give Anita support. So, please do not rent out unit X for the next 6 weeks. Danke, Helga." Simple as that. TAW
