Puerto Lopez, Manabi Life style, building supplies, workers, contracts

Post new topic

We are about start building a home in Puerto Lopez.

The last news that I had about the town is the gov declared it as Protected Area (wich I hope it means the municipality will work harder in order to keep the place cleaner)

The water system is done  (but there is not pipes, wich means will take time until have water in home)

I will like if out there is a expat or a ecuadorian who has experience building and if someone can recomend a realiable profesional who can do electrical plan, sanitary plan, architectural plan, etc

This is my lot

Be aware of real estate agents. Are over pricing, really too much and they are not locals! I will suggest just contact the owner and negociate by yourself, or better: Find a reliable ecuadorian who can be your smoke screen!
