MISSION
The mission of Pied-a-terre at Casitas Aparicio is to provide stress-free, management-free and affordable luxury vacation living to individuals who may not otherwise be able to afford owning, operating and managing their own vacation property from abroad.
ISSUES WITH OWNING VACATION HOME IN FOREIGN COUNTRY
LIABILITIES AND UNANTICIPATED EXPENSES
Oftentimes, the reality of buying a vacation home in a foreign country exposes the absentee owner to a myriad of potential recurring liabilities and unanticipated expenses.
They come to realize that their home cannot be maintained as a successful rental unit in their absence, or as a vacant property, without incurring the cost of hiring a rental agency and a property management service, oftentimes two separate services, who may or may not do a good job in protecting the best interests of the property owner.
