Our recent Cotacachi real estate tour looked at a number of Prima Vera II condos for sale in the $50,000 to $60,000 range. Here is one of the four Prima Vera II blocks.
While viewing this unit we talked to American owner Bill Daily about the cost of living in Cotacachi.
Here is Bill and his wife Jo.
This is their condo…with a comfortable view balcony
Two bedrooms.
One bedroom is used as an office…
plus a full kitchen.
Here is their living room.
We asked Bill about utility costs and he told us that property taxes were $38…a year.
Propane is $2.50 for 20 gallon bottle for cooking, heating and hot water. They use about $5…a month.
Water is $6 a month, electricity $20 a month….broadband $49…condo fees $100…so in all there basics are about $185 a month.
We also saw a rare Primavera I resale.
This is a popular block because of added space and a Bar B Q room in…
the gardens.
that are not shared
and have excellent long rage views.
These units stand alone and are a little further from the noise of town.
You can get details from owner Bob Humphrey at bbhumphrey@starband.net
Tomorrow’s message looks at cost of loving on the Ecuador coast. No this is not an error. We’ll look at the cost of living on Ecuador’s coast as well… even lower than Cotacachi’s cost of living. Thursday’s message looks at two huge Ecuador tax benefits.
Until then good living wherever you are.
