I am in the process of buying a condo in Simpson Bay! Yeah! Lucky me. I have a few questions.
I want to have a friend/ electrician come down with me and upgrade the electrical box and all the plugs and light switches. Do I need to get a permit for that?
If I hire someone on the island, how do I pay them ? Can they take a check from the US?
Do I need to set up a bank account and if I do, do I have to get a local checking account?
I live in New England and I want to send a car and a bunch of boxes, probable 20 or so.
Should I get a company from here and have them send it all the way through or am I better off getting a US company to get it to Miami. Then using another company to get it to St. Maarten.
I would love to hear about experiences others have had. Good and bad.
