According to a well-written opinion in Oct. 2007 edition of ‘The Economist’:

“Panama’s real-estate market is in the midst of an unprecedented explosion. A combination of easy credit, foreign demographic trends and, most importantly, quite a bit of speculative momentum appears to be behind the surge in investments in the luxury residential market. The intense level of enthusiasm is raising questions about the sustainability of demand, the likely strain on infrastructure, and the potential risks to some investors and end users should the market suddenly burst.”

What I find interesting is the relatively small number of fixes it would take to make your project in Panama City, Panama the tropical home in paradise your eventual residential investors are dreaming about.  If the luxury demand is supported and sustained by Panamanians providing world class services, everyone wins.

Surely there is a way to help prep Panama City, Panama to be the new leader in Central America, in updating infrastructure and learning what it takes to become world class in delivering services and supplies.  If in helping to lead more peaceful management of its infrastructure’s unprecedented growth; as a sidebar, it makes Panama a happier and healthier place to live –wouldn’t that be an added benefit? Let’s talk about it, and how doing it…is being good.
