"oh yea that WILL happen....maybe when our grandkids are OLD!!!"
Let's hope! .. but, with two super powers behind the project I don't think so.
It will be interesting because there willbe one super power against it ----- USA.
Maybe the election results will slow them down.

Hola Grover - Gracias! My husband has been a member of this board for years and warned me in his typical.. "the best wood in the world has a rough
exterior"... one of these days he is going to make a direct statement that makes sense. Actually, maybe he did.. as he walked away he said "God help
him" -- no Latin blood in mi marido.

Capt. Mike - Do your home work if you are interested in Campo Lorenzo. We have been looking at real estate for years in that area. It's all about a
Titulo.

It will help your Nomad credibility if you make some posts about trip reports or other things that interest you about Baja. and add some comments to
other peoples posts. if the only thing you talk about is trying to sell your project people are not going to take a liking to it.

Gee, another strange comment! If I were to talke about trip reports or other things I would go to the other areas. According to Doug, this area is
for Available Real Estate.
I didn't read the rule about having to post a general interest story for every post placed here. Please direct me to that rule! Also, I checked the
other posts in this area and general posts -- and guess what -- most of them don't have general posts (some do).
You are an Elite Nomad (?) and know this -- so what is your real problem... or your real agenda.
Your comments are completely out of line with the other 3 or more star members.

Pilar2006 I can see you have an attitude problem here.
I did not have any agenda other than I was one of the people here that was trying to help you.
I did not tell you to post a trip report in the real estate section. I was only trying to tell you to lighten up on your project posts and try to make
some posts on something else that might interest some people here you can post them in the trip reports or general Forums. but I can see now that your
only interests are selling your project so good luck
go back and read my posts I started out skeptical of you the you pulled the Wool over my eyes and won me over and now you have stuck the sword in me.
that will only happen once. and that is only because I like to believe there is some good in everyone and I gave you a chance.

Bruce - I appreciate your attempt to help me.. but I shouldn't need help, now should I!
I just placed a real estate post in "Real Estate Available." Without cause or knowledge, a couple of members decided to sling mud at me. I simply
pointed out how rude and silly they were. At the same time I invited our group to watch this thread to view the range of gringo attitudes! I won't
share their comments with you.. that would be like pouring gas on a fire.
Interesting that their are over 900 hits in two days. Trust me, they may look like new members but once this thread is over I don't think you will
ever see them again.
Maybe you and the bullies on this site can stick to the topic "Available Real Estate." I don't mean to offend any of those who have stayed on the
"topic." and the many senior members who have been outstanding.
Don't expect me to back down from the bullies, I may be Mexican and I may be female but I was taught to stand up to jerks and macho males!
My husband, a long time member, was shocked by Bob and Susan's rude comment! He has had several very good conversations with them and is very
disappointed in them.

If my opinion matters to anyone, Pilar2006 posted an ad in one of the ad forums... Why this caused an uproar is strange to me...?? That is exactly
what this forum is for REAL ESTATE.
She followed board rules... there is no requirement that people wanting to sell things first become close friends with the rest of Baja Nomad.
I have no interest in Punta Colonet other than the history of the area, which was named after a sailor named Colnett.
If you don't like what is being sold, why attack the person trying to sell...? That is not going to make him/her want to be a friendly Nomad, that you
claim you want Pilar to be here.
"Can't we all just get along"??

Wow, this is an interesting little dust-up.
Given the shrill tone here I thought I'd better introduce myself (rather than silently reading all of your posts as I've been doing for several months
now). It might cost me down the road if I don't!
I love Baja, I've been dozens of times, and I've got "the disease." I care very about about the well-being of the region, and I always try to honor
the people, plants and animals who live there when I visit. FYI I have nothing for sale.
Pilar- I support your right to post as you please. If your project is indeed 1) legal and 2) environmentally sustainable then I wish you all the luck
in the world. No doubt there is a bit of irony in the fact that a bunch of gringos jump all over you for developing real estate in your own country
(if that is the case). But at the same time, the "eco" description is a bit fuzzy, and if you're trying to create a truly environmentally sustainable
development that's a pretty high bar to reach. I share some skepticism with others on that point. Can you tell us more about how, specifically, this
project will measure up on that criteria? My support would depend entirely on that point.
If you were doing something truly sustainable, I'm all for it. Anything short of that and I'd have to side with the critics who have seen Baja suffer
through all too many ill-conceived real estate nightmares.
Hello other nomads- Que viva una Baja limpia!

what's a titulo? a mammary gland on a dauschund?
not interested in owning.......i like renting, you can walk from a lease. Ain't nada guaranteed re land rights in a country that allows bands of
roving thugs to decapitate cops.
nothing but corruption prevalent everywhere down there and it ain't gonna change in my lifetime. Mexico will always be AS IT IS NOW. A 2 classes
state ruled by those with the money which promulgates and perpetuates their power. I thot Fox would be a welcome change - he's just like all his
predecessors and to be followers.

selling your property is fine and good luck with your project but...
don't try to sell it telling people that "things will happen soon" like an international airport...it just won't happen
this is mexico...everything is slow....

Hola Sandbox. it will be as "eco" and the group wants it to be. Me, I'm for a gringo resort but they are looking into bale-straw and adobe housing,
solar, grey water systems, desalinization, etc.etc. I'm only one vote out of twenty. Yeap! I didn't use the gringo trick of keeping 51% ownership.
The group comes from all walks of life. They are all very familiar with Baja, most of them travel to Baja several times a year and some of them own
other properties in Baja.
They are very excited about working with their future neighbors in creating their own community and have all stated they don't want a "Cabo." Gee, I
like Cabo. They are very outspoken (unlike me) and very active in our Town Hall Meetings. Should you like to correspond with them just send me your
email address at pilarn99@hotmail.com and I will forward it to them and ask them to write you.
Sustainable.. I just hope we don't have to change the name from Playa de Arena to Campo de Arena
Sincerely, Maria Del Pilar

Bob & Susan -
The major problem I have found with some of the gringos in Mexico is that they tell half truths. A lot of the stories that come out of Baja are half
truths - so they can't be considered lies, but they are self serving. For example, where did I ever say "things will happen soon." I wrote an
airport will come to the Punte Colonet. Did I say soon? today? tomorrow? next year? Anyone involved in Mexico knows nothing happens quickly in
Mexico. If you are going to quote me try to "at least" quote me honestly! and good luck on selling the property... Sincerely, Maria Del Pilar

In what community do you hold your townhall meetings? I don't see a town in your picture. Could you show more pictures?

Renting is very smart in Baja as long as you don't build a $300,000 house on it. We have a Gringo friend who is trying to sell a $375,000 home on 99
year leased land.. right, any lease over 10 years (including extensiions is void)
I understand your comment but you can sub "USA" for "Mexico" and "Bush" for "Fox" and I could still understand your comment. Did you know there are
more murders in Chicago and Baltimore "per capita" than any city in Mexico.

ethicly you should't even mention
"an airport will come to the Punte Colonet."
because it may NEVER materalize...
Realestate sales in Mexice alreasy has a bad rep
electricty is 6 miles from our property and we may NEVER see it EVER!!!
just state the facts...i want to sell some lots...here they are...bring your money or walk away....
we'll be by next week and will take a look...
