Should I buy or rent a home in Panajachel?
If you have not spent a lot of time in Panajachel, you should rent before even thinking about buying. We asked expats there about the buy vs. rent decision...
"Buying a home in Panajachel can be a great investment, as the area is known for its stunning natural beauty and vibrant culture. However, it is important to consider the cost of living in the area, as well as the availability of services and amenities. Renting a home in Panajachel may be a more cost-effective option, as it allows you to enjoy the area without the long-term commitment of buying a home. Additionally, renting can provide more flexibility if you are unsure of how long you will be staying in the area. Ultimately, the decision to buy or rent a home in Panajachel should be based on your individual needs and preferences," wrote a member who made the move to Panajachel, Guatemala.
