Jeff-Thank you for including me in your new Medellin Guru posts. My husband and I love this newsletter: it seems to be geared more toward “more mature” expats rather than the audience targeted by Medellin Living. We spent two months in Medellin last winter and are planning on a longer stay this upcoming winter, perhaps 3-4 months so we are looking for a longer term lodging this year. No, we don’t expect you to find it for us but do you have a suggestion of a search site besides Airb&b? We speak Spanish.
Thanks, Leah Rosenthal
Hi Leah, thanks!
I have seen that Airbnb does have some lower cost apartment rentals available from some of the local Colombian real estate firms and some local Colombian owners. But make sure to look for properties with ratings and make sure they have hot water. Two Spanish language sites you can try are https://www.homeaway.com.co/ and http://www.tuapartamentomde.com/pricing.html plus use a google search of “apartamentos con muebles medellin”.
Hi Jeff,
I have a quick question on paying the EPM bill remotely. We have an apartment that we want to keep the electricity on while we are out of the country but we don’t have a cedula or a colombian bank account. Any ideas on how expats handle this issue?
Thanks for your input.
Hi Mark, expats with Colombian bank accounts can pay bills like EPM electronically when traveling and other expats I have talked to use friends to pay bills when they travel.
