Bad Apple In Caldera Village, Boquete?
Jun 12th, 2007 by Don Ray
I received the following Question from a couple that had a bad experience in Caldera Village, Boquete:
Question::We got involved in a property scam. It was for property in Boquete called Caldera. The owner was Carlos Gomez. He sold time share type ownership and then sold the property and did not return any of the money from the timeshare. Have you heard of this man or Caldera? Is he still operating in real estate?
J&W
I responded that I did not know the individual or the development and asked if they had bought from the individual or heard about him from someone else. They replied the following this morning:
Yes we did buy into Caldera Village in Boquete. Carlos Octavio Gomez was the owner. He lives in David. He has yet to return our money. He sold the land moved all assests out of his name etc. Bad character. We are still trying to get our money back.

This is another example of buyer beware. There always two sides to a story. Carlos, I will be happy to print your side.



I have seen tons of signs in David for Caldera Village. I personally don’t know this Gómez guy, but i’m not surprised that he pulled a fast one. I’m sure there are a couple of others ready to make a buck at the expense of foreigners or sell swampland as prime realestate. They are however few and far between. Most Chiricanos are very friendly honest people.
Hi Emily. Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment.
