Featured by the New York Times!

The interview I did with the New York Times was featured as part of an article on real estate in Nicaragua! Check out the article.

Recently I was interviewed for an international real estate feature about the property market in Nicaragua. I was extremely honored to be chosen. The Times has been my favorite newspaper for years for their excellent international and political coverage. In fact they are the only paper I subscribe to. I would like to give a big thanks to Vivian Marino and the staff at the New York Times for the opportunity. If you like it please share the article and help us promote growth in this beautiful country!
