I asked someone who I thought might know and he didn't really know anything about it, other than to state that a closing on the French side takes about 3 months, so we will not hear for a while, I guess. I doubt they will do any promotion until the sale has actually gone through, even if it will remain some type of a rental.

I've never heard of a hurricane that is a category 6 or 6+, is that something new?

Martini--what's your definition of an outsider? My understanding is that many or most of the villas along Orient are currently owned by folks from mainland France.

I'm thinking the low asking price is because it's been around a long time and is in need of all new wiring and plumbing!! Anyone knows anything about those two things, know, that don't come cheap!! AND the next big question is, "How do you find a licensed and insured plumber and electrician on the island that do the job, scure all permits!?" This is a BIG job!!
Sand Gravity, got to love it!

What's this got to do with the topic at hand?

Wise investments . No need to mentioned the price . Plus added to our second home in Beacon Hill. Why should allow tom , dick harry to come to our Island to try take away our land and property . Not anymore . Talk is cheap .
