What is a solar/finca?  I'm looking at houses on clasificados.com.  It translates to solar/villa.

We're moving WHERE?

A solar/Finca is usually a plot of land with or with out a house, roads, electricity,sewers, etc.  It could be a farm as well...These are generally in VERY rural areas....don't buy it UNTIL you see it!!!

Im just thinking about renting but your advise is still good.  Rural sounds good. Thanks.

Solar is a lot where you can build a house. Solar/finca is a lot in a rural area where you can build a house/farm and where is (some) space for farming or ranching.
