We're in the market for villa or condo - well managed buildings (we live in the UK) aimed primarily at the rental market.
Looking at about 150,000 US$ ish.
We'd like to see some genuinely good prospects and not be dragged around a building site by an overpaid wideboy in an armani suite and a mobile phone.
How do we we start?
Do we just turn up and look in some windows, what about the new builds that are all on the net - are they cheaper when you actually get into the office - is it better going direct or through an agent?
.... and lastly what sort of financing is there - bearing in mind we're UK citizens - can we get local financing? What sort of deposit should we be aiming at...
Didn't realize I had so many questions! 
Sorry... any help would be greatly appreciated.

I hope you have a strong stomach. I always thought I was a tough SOB, but I finally gave up after 3 failures. All in that price range as well. Be prepared for GREEDY sellers and lots of double talk . My agents were good to me though. Michele will be good to you. She tried to help me out, even though she wasn't involved.
