You do some pretty amazing work. Loved the shower that looked as if you were in an aquarium.

Thanks Landshark. I appreciate the advice.

This forum has been a huge help for this newbie. Want to have an outdoor shower installed. Have seen some very elaborate and colorful tile work done. Saw one in Encanto that had sun, surfboard, margarita glasses, it was pretty over the top. I'm thinking just a happy sun face and a little...

Thanks. I can hardly wait for Saturday morning traffic and jacking around with the trailer. At least it's a small trailer.

Thanks Landshark. So, it looks like I'll be hauling a trailer load again. How do they handle general household goods that are not new - i.e. towels, sheets, bedding, kitchen stuff, cleaning stuff? I was going to provide receipts for anything new with any significant value, say over $20. I...

Have not tried Vasquez, will check the CA store above that delivers. Thanks for all of the advice.

Yes, first I went to some place Mueblo something or another and then they referred me to Hacienda. Very nice people but with all the sofas they had she said none were real leather. They could order something, but I kind of like to see it, touch, sit on it.

Also, if I buy stuff here and need to bring down, how do you pay the tariff or tax at the border?

I went looking for a leather sofa on Saturday. We hit two different local furniture stores, and neither carried any real leather. I'm looking for a leather sofa and some Mexican themed wall art. Any ideas?

Sounds like a fun kayak trip. From San Jorge, not Playa La Jolla.

So given all of these new complexities, would you recommend title insurance or not. I've seen pro and con info on the internet. I believe my quote was just over three grand for a $165,000 property. Not sure what to do.

Uh oh. I was supposed to be closing next week, but just heard it will be pushed out to July 4. How and where do I get a 1) RFC, 2) CURB, and 3) valid immigration status? I have tried calling the Mexican Embassy in Phoenix, but all I get is a recording. I was told by seller and seller's agent...

Thanks for the advice. Looking forward to that reef. I'm surprised you can see it at one mile out.

Thanks for the replies. I believe there is a rock island at the mouth of the estuary that is way exposed at low tied and is fully underwater at high tide. Anyone tried fishing there? Other than a heck of a tidal current, I would think that is good. Someone also told me there is a reef one...

Always said - later in life, I'll take up golf or fishing. Moved to the Texas Coast, and fishing was the natural choice. It was right out my front door and hundreds of miles in any direction. Moved to Phoenix two years ago, and have only casted once. Now buying a place in Playa La Jolla, and...
