We were looking at our map and browsing the internet and determined our house up on the hill in San Pedro Garza Garcia is only four miles from the largest building in Latin America (Torres Obispado) and a little over seven miles from what was the largest building in Mexico (Torre KOI) before that. I think we can so the both of them from the house on the hill but I am going to confirm that with Lynn, my brother-in-law and our contractor and lawyer or my artist brother-in-law Lauro who has promised us a couple of pieces specifically for the house that we can add to our collection of his work.
Lynn is our partner in this enterprise. It cannot be overstated how much it has helped us that at he is both a practicing lawyer and the owner of a construction company. He has deep connections in the kind of subcontractors and laborers as well as knowledge of the local economy and opportunities in the specific neighborhood where we are planning to continue this work. The economic realities in San Pedro are just as complicated as they are in the USA. Lynn has the finger on the pulse of raw material and labor prices, knowledge of what is a good deal and, more importantly, what is not, when to buy, when to sell, and about every other aspect of doing anything to do with real estate in his part of the world. We are glad to be in business with him. You can see his picture in front of the apartments to the right.
Work continues on the house on the apartments. The current schedule has the transition from work on the apartments starting in late December or early January. A couple of images of the current state of construction of the apartment transition below.
