My First Entry
Here we go- my first blog entry. I’ve been asked by several friends and coworkers; “What’s possessed you to write an online diary?” So first off let me say, a daily “diary” is certainly not my intention in creating this journal. I’m not here to talk about what I had for breakfast this morning (delicious as it was.) I’d like to think of this as a way to share my personal knowledge and experience regarding current and timely investment opportunities with my friends, family, clients and partners. This is also a great venue for me to keep those same people informed of my companies’ latest endeavors as well as the evolution of our projects.

As many of you know, I’ve taken a particular interest in Argentina’s real estate market, specifically Buenos Aires and Mendoza, after remarkable investment opportunities were made available due the country’s economic crisis several years ago. And though these opportunities have been much publicized, I’ve still been asked; “Why? Why Argentina?” I would like to say that my black box, which is fed with copious amounts of charts and data, issued a proclamation that the time was ripe to enter the real estate market there. However, things don’t normally work that way, at least not for me. My determination to enter this market really began as a personal journey, a tourist visit to Buenos Aires in fact, and was gradually transformed by my experiences and what I witnessed firsthand, into a determination to pursue a vision. So, while in the past few years there has been a lot of positive media coverage relative to Argentina’s real estate market, there is a big difference between words and action. Hence, I have used my conviction to take action and enter this market and am currently in the process of turning my vision into what I feel will be a profitable business and investment opportunity.
Next week I’ll tell you a little bit about my first visit to Buenos Aires, and what specifically it was that really clarified my vision and opened my eyes to the amazing opportunities Argentina offers its investors.
Until then…
