    One option is to look at local realtor websites—they often have rentals. Look by location...in other words, Google “real estate Grecia, Costa Rica,” for example Another good resource is Facebook. Join specific Facebook groups such as “Expats in Guanacaste, Costa Rica” and ask for rental agent recommendations.

    I use AirBnB if it is just a couple of days...and I am pretty specific in my requirments (must have washer/dryer for example as I travel light) and it must be walking distance to local sites. And I ALWAYS message the host before I reserve and tell them a bit about myself and inquire if they might extend a discount. Works more often than not.

    I almost always get a discount. Keep trying. It could be, of course, that I am a frequetn AirBnB guest. Tell them a bit about your self...esp your age so they can see you are mature. 🙂

    It was not clear this was not going to be a live Q&A on zoom or Teams - this text style is not helpful. Sorry, but very disappointed.

    I have been on this website for 30 minutes. I don't know what is going on. This is crazy. Why not have a zoom meeting where there is sound and you know what's going on

    Start by reaching out to IL correspondents: Italy@InternationalLiving.com and France@InternationalLiving.com. And join specific Facebook groups such as "Expats in Florence" -- just search FB for the communities you will visit.

    I start with Google lights and Kayak. I use the flexible date functions. And once I find some options, I go directly to the airline and search further. I ALWAYS book directly with the airline and not third-party vendors cause if you get stuck along the way, the airline is always your best resource to get you unstuck.

    hi
    i really wanted to get on this discussion but it wont let me in. I'm moving to Portugal with a target date of October 2024. My target area is Porto and vicinity. i need a rental that will allow two dogs and will begin looking at real estate for purchase over the following six months.
    I'm a comfortably retired, female senior citizen, divorced. I'll be attending the IL conference in April in Portugal but would like to have some real estate advice prior to that.
    regards

    I think this Q is better suited for the real estate experts, so I will ask our tech guys to move it there...

    It has been a long while since I have been to Argentina but I loved Buenos Aires and Mendoza...and when I go back, I'd like to see Barriloche.

    Hello IL Team,
    I suggest that future Q&A sessions on travel topics, with experts like Suzan Hazkins, should be conducted on a live video session on Zoom or other video conferencing platforms. This would make the session more interactive and allow participants to engage in real-time. I believe this would be appreciated by the members and look forward to it. Thank you!
