Local fishermen spend the day out on the water, and surfers wander from the beach to Read more

Buying property in Ecuador is a great way to invest your money, as well as set yourself up with a retirement or vacation home. When it comes to buying property, foreigners automatically have the same right as Ecuadorians. What is more, no special visa or residency is needed to purchase property, and for those who wish to obtain their residency in Ecuador, there is no better way to prove yourself to the government than by investing in their country!
