Our sister publication, Coastal Uruguay, has a series of futuristic time warp articles comparing Spain in the 70’s to present day Uruguay. The estimate of how things might unfold appears to accurate. (I lived in Spain back then for awhile; I’ve seen it first hand.) This same group of articles clearly identifies the challenges…..and the opportunities.
In this parallel universe, the challenges are almost identical. Are the opportunities? If the history of the motherland repeats itself here, things could get interesting on the Coast of Uruguay. The gods may smile on real estate for many of the same reasons here in the Land of the Sun.
Here’s a link to the page where these posts are found, Futurism and History. Do yourself a favor and read these, particularly if you’re researching the country for possible investment.
As Empires crumble into the sand, tiny Uruguay, the little train that could, remains steady.
Stay Tuned!
