What is a typical expat home or apartment like in Boquete?
We asked expats what a typical home or apartment in Boquete is like. They answered...
"We have a 2 bedroom rental house up the hill from Boquete town. It is our preferred area. We were lucky and planned well in advance of moving here," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Boquete, Panama.
"3 bedroom 2 bath homes. In Boquete it is typical to have a home but there are some apartments available. When you make any change to your house you will be overcharged and you will receive poor quality work. Your electricity will be high, and undependable, and you will never have the bill delivered to your house. It is your responsible to know when the bill is due and your responsibility to go to them and pay it. (the Post Office does not deliver mail. you may not even have a street name and house number.)," commented one expat who made the move to Boquete, Panama.
