I spotlighted Panama for my readers for the first time in 1998. I told them I believed this country was the investment opportunity of our lifetime. In the 27 years since, I’ve put my money where my prediction was. My husband Lief Simon and I have made 16 property investments in this country.

Waterford, Ireland, circa 1998, when Lief and I first came to call it home, was a bit worse for wear.

I went to work for Agora Publishing as a copy editor fresh out of school aged 21. Then I spent the next 14 years working my way up that ladder from editor to manager and eventually partner.

He said he’d reached his limit and excused himself from the bidding. He’s left the building. “Our buyer from Dublin doesn’t know this, but it won’t be long before he figures it out.

You’re moving to a new country. You’ll need a place to live. I say rent one. At least at first but maybe forever. Maybe your chosen haven won’t turn out to be all you hoped it would be. Or maybe you’ll find that the country suits you fine but the neighborhood where you’ve settled doesn’t. I’ve yet to meet an expat who regrets having made the move overseas, but I know many who weren’t happy with their initial location choices. That’s no problem—as long as you haven’t purchased your home.
