Message to Paraguayan entrepreneurs looking for clients
Hello,
After having read several hundred testimonials from °µÍø½ûÇøriate foreigners in Latin America and in particular in Paraguay, published on the internet (messages, articles, videos, podcasts) or in books but also sent by email, it seems important to me to solve the problem skilled labor (masons, carpenters, joiners, electricians, plumbers, breeders, farmers, mechanics, caretakers, ...) who speak Spanish before buying land in Latin America :
1 / Is there a company in Paraguay (online or not) that can quickly and easily recruit competent and honest staff in any field ? In Central America, these companies exist and °µÍø½ûÇøs use and appreciate them.
2 / how much does this service cost per hour? monthly ? year round ?
I am posting these questions on this forum to try to resolve issues that I need to resolve before considering buying land in Paraguay but also to inform °µÍø½ûÇøriates in financial difficulty because they work in South America in the disaster area. tourism or in the highly competitive sector of helping foreigners settle in (in Paraguay, I have already found around thirty specialists in this field. If you would like to obtain their contact details, I will gladly send them to you by message. staff) that many foreigners (whom I have 'met' on the internet) say that they have given up settling in Paraguay because they have not found in this beautiful country a company that allows you to recruit quickly and easily a specialist in this or that, and who has been noted by his former clients.
“The issue of security is a serious issue in all Latin American countries. The problem does not concern only those who are not indigenous.
I am fortunate to have friends here who are from the middle and upper class of Asuncion, and I know many people from Asuncion.
They know exactly what to do and what not to do and many have guards in their homes. But I can't think of anyone who hasn't been assaulted or robbed, or who hasn't had their car or home broken into.
At first glance, this didn't seem like a big deal to me. But the longer I've been here, and the more I see and know Asuncion, the less confident I am about my personal safety here. "

wow, that's interesting, nobody robbed me in Paraguay. And not even my friends. I know an old lady, she was robbed in 2001. Paraguay and Uruguay are the most secure countries in the South America for sure.
I dought main reason to not consider PY for exoat destination is lack of skilled workers.
Another french °µÍø½ûÇø pushing his " services " to others upcoming °µÍø½ûÇøs.
Thats legion on the French community and says a lot about the overall state of mind of locals.
Hello,
Dear Tucanoprod,
Paraguay and Uruguay are the most secure countries in the South America for sure.
There are far fewer homicides in Paraguay than in Brazil but more than in Bolivia, Argentina, Chile, any country in Europe, Southeast Asia, the Republic of Georgia.
On the other hand, in Paraguay, theft is cultural according to a Paraguayan anthropologist. All foreigners who have built a house or / and created a hotel-restaurant in Paraguay have had equipment, tools, etc. stolen. Some have lost several hundred thousand dollars over the past ten years because of the theft. This is the reason why there are armed vigils in front of many Paraguayan companies and in the residential areas of Paraguay.
Since you have been living in Paraguay for several years, you cannot ignore the reason why there is always at least one person in the homes of most Paraguayans.
On this forum, you will find the testimony of a Uruguayan who lives in Spain and who says that in his country, if he leaves his house, he will be robbed by his fellow citizens and neighbors. On the other hand, my goal is not to live in the capital but to create a small business far from the capital, if possible.
Dear Paulopereirra, You are right. I have been approached and I know several people who have been approached by these people. I don't need them to apply for residency. On the other hand, I need the service I described above but, to my knowledge (I would really like to be wrong), no company offers this service in Paraguay currently.
It is not for nothing that North Americans have created closed communities organized in South America (for example in Chile) or in Central America (Panama, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Guatemala, ...). It is to be able to live and work in safety. An °µÍø½ûÇøriate just sent me this video :

@PatrickLeclerc I am absolutely amazed by your comments on safety and crime in Paraguay. We have no alarm, guard or any security system. We do not even close the back door of our house when we go to sleep at night. Our car is never locked. Not even in town when we go shopping. In fact I do not even own a key with which to lock it. There is petty crime, but also a high level of honesty. I frequently read about people who lost wallets with documents and cash, only to have it returned by the person who found it. Murders can be devided into 3 groups: household disputes (husband kills wife, or wife kills husband) Alcohol related (friends having a few drinks and watching soccer, and then a "misunderstanding" arises) drug related (being in the drug traffiking industry, investigating it, or interfering with it.
