There are 2 very good reasons why Bello isn't a good idea.
While a lot of the girls come from Bello, in Bello most aren't hookers. They're friends, neighbors, cousins, classmates. All the people around them can ignore where the girls get their money, as long as they're doing it somewhere else. If they're whoring right next door, the nice girl next door who goes to the store for you becomes a working girl who might try to fuck your husband and take his money.
The second reason is, most mongers want to survive their trips. You park yourself in Bello and start running 3 girls a day through your door and pretty soon someone is going to ask you for a charitable donation, probably forcefully.
Your best bet is to either go where the girls already are working, El Centro, or go where the girls want to be working, Poblado or Laureles.

[QUOTE=SurfLooker;2455990][URL]https://instagram.com/mavel03[/URL][/QUOTE]She was wifed by a gringo and taken home to the United States. He made sure to feed here the finest foods for dinner. Lots of fast food burgers fries and extra large drinks for lunch, and he made sure after she sucked the cream filling out of his cannoli she was fed a proper breakfast burrito. Her poor diet now prevents her from having any sex drive and she knows that she does not have to fuck to get his money now and if she gets tired of him she can take half his shit and live like a queen in Colombia in about five years from now. She hangs out with the females who scream that their men should treat them like queens and then treat their men like an ATM and a handy man. She learns that the real beauty about being a woman in America is she can join almost any group of women and can find a new way to treat her Husband who brought her from the slums of Colombia like he is the worst man in the existence of this world. When they fight she reminds him that he was a pig who paid for sex with her until he wanted a wife and then he keeps her from achieving the best life possible because he holds her back. In case you have not realized I'm full of shit. I don't know this Instagram girl. I just wanted to high light the toxic females we have at home and I openly encourage younger men and my teens to travel to were prostitution is legal before wasting their time trying to find a wife at home. I hope this had some of you laughing! Happy mongering!

My manager girl told me this morning (keep in mind my lease is up tomorrow) that they offer is $80/ day for one month, or $73/ day for 2 months. Now, for the past 48 days, it was $50/ day. She said they have received a lot of interest in the apartment, recently.
I think it's bullshit. She ended by saying if I have an offer, she will happily run it to the owner. I told her I think that's fairly ridiculous. Now, that being said, I certainly don't want to spend my next 24 hours searching for a new apartment, packing, etc. I have enough sauces and condiments to fill a trash bag, alone.
So, since I do not have a set departure date, and really no interest to leave.
Should I simply offer the equivalent of $50/ night? SURFER500, you previously advocated for that. I'm wondering if anyone has been keeping an eye on AirBnB, recently. I have not. My first impression would be that tourists / businessmen have been leaving, with no replacements arriving. Thus, shouldn't the renters being controlling the current market, and be in a position to negotiate? Why would a gringo penthouse owner want to risk a week or months of an unpaid vacant apartment, to gouge me for an extra few hundred per month?
I'm open to all opinions on this, I just want to feel comfortable with what I offer, because there is no time to bullshit, and I have no desire to go back and forth.

I think it won't be hard to find something but maybe without hot tube, to speed things up, set the price to above $1000 and other comparable options to rent for a month. Then I will offer them a price with the AirBnB as backup and use it as bargain chip.

So, since I do not have a set departure date, and really no interest to leave..[/QUOTE]I've only been to Medellin once but I travel a lot for work and book abnb whenever I travel. In short your assessment is correct. In situations like this they should be trying to keep what they have. I am not currently in Medellin, but I do know how to gauge properties. Yes they can get $100 USD a day for a penthouse when it is busy. My penthouse that I own in San Antonio would have cost me roughly $3000 dollars to own with a mortgage if I did not buy it cash. The same would be true for both my houses in central California if I did not do the same. In short yes they can ask for a little more depending on if he is operating at a loss having you there at $50 a day. I was looking at some penthouses to buy on my next trip to Medellin and the price range for the ones I looked at was between $400 k- $700 k. I'm not sure what the owner paid for his penthouse, but if he did not buy it in cash renting it at $50 a day is an automatic loss. Offer what you feel you can afford for the penthouse and if they say no move on. I'm not sure about your financial situation, but if an extra $900 a month is going to make you this nervous then maybe you should downgrade or find another penthouse that has been vacant since covid-19 lockdown. People who have zero coming in will definitely perk up at a chance to make that zero go to $1500 a month or even $2000 usd a month. Don't get blinded by the comfort of staying static where you are. Whenever you rent you must always be in the mindset of being ready to move on because the owner of the rental property is banking on you not wanting uproot your life. They will make small increases every time they revisit you for a contract extension. It will boil down to whether you want to stand your ground and not let it raise or if they raised it small enough to get you to be content with the new terms. I hope this helps. Good luck and let us know how it goes!

So, since I do not have a set departure date, and really no interest to leave..[/QUOTE]I would go to the Casacol website and look at comparable properties to gauge what the rates are, however what I do know for a fact is that they have lot of vacancies, and potential renters are currently making low ball offers to owners.
From the pictures you've posted (besides all your cream pie honey's) , having a large balcony and / or Terraza along with a Hot-tub, and views is somewhat rare and very sought after by renters, if that is the case, there may be some actual interest by others.
If you leave, the owner will incur some cleaning costs, and may have some deferred maintenance issues, etc so having you stay is to their benefit. So if you think you might be around for at least another three months, and will agree to this in writing, I would offer the $ 50 a night for this entire period. I am assuming that your in a building that has a thirty day minimum rental period versus an apartment that can rent by the day and / or week which is very rare. If that is the case, the $ 73 a day is a bargain during normal times for that type of property, but the owner will have a lot of turnover, vacancy time, cleaning costs, etc. So having a long term tenant is in his best interest, versus trying to squeeze a few hundred extra dollars out of you unless somebody is actually looking to rent for an extended period of time.
My three part strategy would be:
1. Immediately begin looking for a replacement apartment and have it at the ready.
2. Offer $45/ day for where you are but accept no deal of more than $50/ day.
3. Remind myself throughout the negotiation that the owner is looking to secure any deal that will cover expenses for as long as possible through the end of August.
The worst case scenario for you would be the inconvenience of a move. I think you will have little trouble finding a comparable apartment for the same price or less. It is very much a short term renter's market. The owner is trying to get you (by raising your rate) or someone else to cover costs until the tourists are back. As you say, once you leave that apartment becomes one more Poblado white elephant amongst a pile of others you see every day on facebook gringo sites and airbnb.

Glad to report Meddy is back!! Lot's of available talent around. These next 3 months should be interesting with the boarders closed. Casas are opening back up as well as I got handed a couple of casa cards downtown. Might be the best time to be in Medellin in a good while.
