This is a very interesting article describing what the modern day Luxury Buyer looks like and what they are looking at. I think this author has hit it right on the head, especially where the buyer’s scrutiny of the developer is mentioned.
According to this article, a group of 11 former investors have brought suit against Intrawest ULC and Playground Real Estate.

OUCH is about all I can say about this. Innocent until proven otherwise and we are only getting one side of the story here. Either way, I fear this is going to be a story that will be repeated over and over again in the future. The only difference will be the parties involved.

AARP recently named Panama’s mountain village of Bouquet as one of the Best Places to retire abroad. In this article, they list several solid reasons for Panama to be attractive to retirees and then go into detail on the beautiful mountain town of Bouquet. Definitely recommend this one.
