To skullyboy - I have been coming to Belize for 9 years. Purchased my property very soon after my first trip, so I have been in the planning stages for some time. Project completion (house including rental apartment) will take about 8 months. We have had the dock constructed (in order to facilitate delivery of building materials) and the property cleared, leaving the coconut palms by the water. I have no reason to believe that I will encounter any problems that can not be corrected by myself or my builder. Therefore, yes, I would do it again in a heartbeat.
For Pedro 1 - The builder is Graniel. Excellent reputation.
