  Travel notes: Experiencing the Panama Canal from both ship and shore

Today the Panama Canal continues to be a true marvel to experience, both on a ship cruising through it and from shore excursions along it. More....

 Building in Paradise

 

When I first arrived in Panama in 2006 and asked about building a home, I was told to run away and run away fast!  As time went by, I saw some impressive construction taking place, both commercial and residential.  My fear factor diminished and I decided that the time was right to build my dream home.  I selected a nice lot in Panamonte Estates here in Boquete and broke ground in May of 2013.  Thirteen months later, we moved into our home with a punch list of items that I counted on one hand.  With that experience, we began our newest service that we can offer our clients.  We started a build-to-suit project management service and we are starting with a nice rental community project.

We have built 6 luxury homes now and we are working on our largest project yet, a 7,500 sf ultra luxury home near us here in Panamonte.   

     

        Let us know if you want a proposal for designing and building your dream home.
