Property in Salto, Uruguay
| Property in Salto, UruguayMy wife and I would like to purchase a home in Salto Uruguay. Either an existing home or land to build. |
|  I've been to Salto on business.. importing citrus... but my 2 hour meeting wont count for much on giving you any useful information. Closest friends we have to Salto are in Paysandu... that dont help either..Suggest you google : salto uruguay inmobiliaria You'll get a bunch of hits... click the links and you should see lots of properties. I hope you and your family can take the heat... Last summer it was in the 40's for many, many days.. good luck... |
| How did you come to pick Salto? I've been there for a couple days and it was nice, but I think maybe a bit in the middle of nowhere which might get boring after a while. |
| When expats that have lived in various countries suggest that you rent for a year or two before even thinking about buying... it's often because they have learned a thing or two... take heed of their wisdom! |
| Lee some people like boring. It's nice to have a home that is some what secluded where you can relax and be apart from others. |
Comment #504/02/09 16:38Rural east Colonia departmento | You're right Adam. I find that east Colonia offers the pleasures of country living situated less that 2 hours from MVD and Buenos Aires in case you feel the need for a bit of city life. The wide river beaches have lovely sand and although the water can appear a bit muddy at times, its usually much warmer than the sea to the east. There again, we all have different preferences thank heavens :-) Patrick. |
| Living in Salto. My husband and I think we are interested in Salto, also because there is a university there. We love the university atmosphere and not so much the ocean, except to visit. We want to be close enough to Motivedeo to go for a 'vacation'. Our thought is to perhaps purchase (eventually) a place large enough to have students living with us. Is this an unrealistic idea? We also would love the hot springs as I have arthritis. I already receive SS and Phil is 59 now. Not everyone is looking for the nightlife. We love the idea of Ecuador because of the ecology (trees, wildlife, etc.) but understand that there are many problems there, so are leaning towards Uruguay; however, I look at property closer to the ocean area and it is almost as expensive as Albuquerque, where we live now! So, we are looking for less expense, something perhaps to renovate in the future and STUDENTS to keep us young. Are we being too idealistic? Sandy |
| Yeah, people will want to sugarcoat information and not make it really clear to you that it is not advisable to travel and stay in a particular place. I would take time and study the real estate arena of Salto as well as the greater Uruguayan picture of things. How far is Salto from Montevideo? You need to also factor in that. Nonetheless, whatever reasons you have in choosing the place, let that be your guiding principle. |
| This page is of keen interest and happens to cover several of my present fixations; sea or ocean water temp, Salto's pluses and minuses, distance from MVD. Another site says not to go to roughly the NW part of the country because it's the Brazil-to-Argentina smuggling corridor with increased crime but that sounds like a rather remote consideration. College towns are often lovely. It's too bad they're all PC indoctrination centers now, more of the unhealthy US influence worldwide. |
| "Life in Salto"
So what has people interested in Salto, anything in particular?I'm yet to go there myself (it is a bit of a trek from Montevideo!) but I have heard great things about it. Here's my two cents, but I'd love to hear from a Uruguayan if anyone is reading this! Salto (city) is 500km from Montevideo along ruta 3. I'm not sure of the condition of this road (the roads in the coastal region are better maintained because of tourism there...some roads in the rest of the country are pretty rocky and may not be the most enjoyable of drives!). Maybe one thing to keep in mind for people retiring here is the distance from larger scale medical services in Montevideo or Buenos Aires. Would that be an issue? The population of Salto city is 118, 000...small for a "city" but big for Uruguay, the second largest hub in fact. So if you don't want to live in Montevideo but still want people and activity then this may be this place for you. Many people also like its proximity to Concordia (and Argentina in general). I wasn't aware of a university in Salto though, what is it called? An obvious draw to Salto is the hot springs, everybody raves about them and they are no doubt excellent for your health. When I lived in Budapest in Hungary I used to go to the thermal baths all the time, it does wonders for your skin, your respiratory system, and stress levels! I haven't heard much about this Brazil-Argentina smuggling route, I really don't think Salto is any more dangerous than Montevideo, some may even argue less so. |
| Uruguay is a wonderful place to live, I bid you and your wife, only the best of luck in all of your endeavors. |
| Salto indeed is a nice place to think of when retiring. I would suggest that if you are thinking of moving in Uruguay, aside from Montevideo, go and try Salto. I have to agree with the rest of the post here. This place is one of the best for those who are retiring and the original poster probably had managed to bought a house now. Have a good day guys. |
| Getting to Salto Salto is connected to Montevideo by regular bus services. There is also a local airport and there are plans to improve it. There are occasional charter flights that land there bringing tourists to the local thermal baths. Local business people are also keen to expand the airport to allow freight (particularly fruit) to be shipped directly from the region. You can learn more about Salto on the link below. |
| "Property in Salto, Uruguay"
Sandy, Wow, another visitor to the board from Spain. Welcome! Thanks so much for posting this great information about getting to Salto. This will come in very handy, that is for sure. I have never been to Salto, so I am wondering if you have any preference for any of the individual bus companies that runs service to Salto? By the way, do you know anyone by the name of Eliza? This post reminds me very much of a conversation I once had with someone by that name. |
| "How to get to Salto"
Hey, The best way to get to Salto from Montevideo is to take the bus, though it takes 6 hours! There are a few companies that serve this route, the number of departures probably depends of the season but you can check at the Tres Cruces website below. |
