Alto Vista Real EstateBuying the home of your dreams
“I could not imagine not living close to the white beaches and azure ocean.”
My parents have been visiting Aruba over 25 years, simply because they fell in love with this beautiful tropical island, says Anne Staal, realtor at Alto Vista real estate. 15 years ago they bought a home to make it their ultimate vacation dream house, but they ended up extending their stay.
It hasn’t been any di� erent for me; I call both the Netherlands and Aruba home, having recently bought the house of my dreams. As a professional licensed realtor, graduated and working for a while in the Netherlands, a� er which I “moved back”, so to speak, to Aruba, I can say that a� er 12 years I understand what motivates people to buy or sell real estate.
At Alto Vista Real Estate we know our customers and our market. Our team consists of local agents with di� erent cultural backgrounds and with a profound knowledge of buying selling, renting and invest-ing in real estate.
To me Aruba is a prefect island to invest in real estate. Despite the world wide crisis the housing market has been stable, not plummet-ing into a negative downward spiral. Of course the e� ect here were also felt, but di� erently. In fact I think that investing in real estate will grow, because of Aruba’s location, culture and quality as a vaca-tion destination.
� e market is still moving, the players have changed. Before 2007, the main investor looking to buy a home or invest in Aruba would have been an U.S. customers, because of the direct � ight to cities in the U.S.A., the convenience of having U.S. customs at the airport, making each trip a domes-tic � ights and the presence of familiar American brands.
But there’s been a downfall in numbers because of the crisis hitting the U.S.A. so hard. Right now hand we see an in� ux of Latin American customers who are discovering the bene� ts of owning a vacation home (and a source of rental income) on a tropical island virtually around the corner.
And Europeans, es-pecially Dutch, I � nd, are looking di� erently at Aruba. To them Curacao is the Dutch “tropical dream island”, but as it goes with any culture, more and more people want something distinguishing them from the mass public, even if it’s an only an island away.
And who can blame them? Located outside the hurricane belt with constant tropical temperatures and cooling trade winds and with international � ights arriving daily are certainly a plus.
Having grown up close to the ocean, I could not imagine not living
close to the white beaches and azure ocean. Plus shopping , entertainment and food wise, there is an abundance to choose from.
My personal experience of buying real estate wasn’t any di� erent. I have bought a piece of paradise, where I can create the home for my family.
� e lush tropical garden with colorful � owers and shrubs in di� erent shades of green, to me was a big selling point. Being quite homely, I enjoy being at
home with friends, family and of course our puppy, Baba. A� er all don’t we all sometimes want to go home, shut the door and shut out the world for a while? Whether it is lounging alongside a colorful tiled pool, hosting a bb party or just kicking back and enjoy a large siesta in
the shade.
Enjoying the live we with our loved ones and making the most of each day. Aruba
is the prefect tropical combination where real state and dream home go hand in hand, whether it is to spent a nice relaxing vacation, to enjoy your retirement or as an in-vestment for your family.

Der’e gai, Der’e gai Pa nos soy’e
Der’e gai, Der’e gai Pa nos plum’e
St John is coming, St John is leaving
See the stick in his hand,
With his eyes tightly closed
Bury the rooster, Bury the rooster
So we can slay itBury the rooster, Bury the rooster
So we can eat itBury the rooster, Bury the rooster
So we can pluck itBury the rooster, Bury the rooster
So we can slaughter itBury the rooster, Bury the rooster
So we can pluck it.
One of the most unique festivities of Aruba is the celebration of Dia di Dera Gai. On June 24th (or St. John’s Day), the traditional day to bury the rooster. Although many activities will start before this date. � is celebration has it’s origin amongst pagan Indians centuries ago in Southern Mexico on the border of Guatemala. It really started as an agricultural rounding o� of the harvest and starting with a next cycle of planting.
� e Indians, living close to nature, tried to please the gods to ensure the next years harvest. Traditionally they would worship the Sun, as the source of light, and thus � re would be a sacred way to cleanse and purify.
So when the earth had given its fruits in harvest, the remains of the � eld were burned, to purify the � eld and to get rid of the remains (such as stemsor leaves) of the harvested crops. From the Mexican border these festivities found their way through Central America, Venezuela and Aruba. Aruba adapted, changed and ampli� ed the tradition.
Roman Catholic faith in� uenced the way the tradition was held. St John the Baptist became the patron of the harvest. It might be interesting to note that throughout the world and espe-cially in Europe, such ritual � res are still being held.
� ese traditions are linked to the Sun’s Solstices. Solstices occur twice a year, when the tilt of the Earth’s axis is oriented directly towards or away from the Sun, causing the Sun to appear to reach its north-ernmost and southernmost extremes and marking the beginning and ending of seasons. Sometimes these bon� res are held just before Easter. � e pagan rite of midsummer was later christened by the Roman Catholic Faith into the birthday of John the Baptist. Another interesting fact is that usually in the Northern hemisphere the harvest is usually celebrated at the ending of October ( Halloween).
Because of Aruba’s geographical location and the calendar of the local crops (maishirabo or sorghum), the harvesting cycle is di� erent.Like at Halloween, it was believed that the night before Dera Gai has
mystical qualities and � re would clean out or ward of any evil. So the bon� res usually light up near the homes (den sabana), on the23rd of June, the eve of St. John’s birthday.
On the 24th there would be all kind of games, like athleticprowess running and jumping.All these games should take place before four o’ clock; the“burial of the rooster”. (Deramento di gai) would take place before sunset. � e rooster symbolizes virility and growth In a clear-ing with sandy soil, a hole would be dug.
A live young rooster then would be placed in the hole and it would be covered with half of a calabas (gourd) so that the calabas would be on top of the ground. Tradition has it that only man can dance Dera Gai, woman can only be spec-tators.
A blindfolded, man would be turned around by a lady while dancing on the tune of the Dera Gaisong, so he would lose all sense of direction.
With a stick in his hands, while doing a shu� ing dance, he would try to feel his way to the buried

Even though it might seem fun to have a bon� re. Fire is always dangerous and to avoid accidents please take enough precautions: Before you start • Never use fl ammable liquids like paraffi n or petrol to get it going as this can result in uncontrolled spread of � re or explosion. • Check immediately before lighting that there’s no animal or even a young child hidden inside. • Never put fi reworks on a bonfi re, even if they’re dud. • Make sure there is enough clear space between any buildings and your fi re.• Check to see where it wind is coming from• Keep fi re extistingishers at hand• Don’t burn dangerous rubbish (e.g. aerosols, paint tins or foam-fi lled furniture). • Remove any rubbish from your bonfi re area in advance so there’s nothing that can be thrown onto the fi re on the night. When it’s all over� e work for you doesn’t end a� er the bon� re is over.� e bon� re needs to be put out completely, to prevent reigniting of the � ames.If you are in doubt call the Fire department for tips on how to make a safe and enjoyable Dera Gai.

An Abundance of PlantsSanta RosaWhen you think of Aruba and plants, for most people the � rst image that comes to mind is the famous Di-viDivi tree, or the pure white beach, close to the azure blue ocean. Or perhaps you think of the Aloe � elds, close to Aruba Aloe Farm, one of the famous export products of Aruba. And who can forget the Cacti, abundant in their presence around the North Coast and Aruba’ s National park, Parke Arikok?
But Aruba has more plant life then you might ex-pect. True, Aruba’s soil is not one of the fertile lavish lava earth, like other islands in the Caribbean, but the unique combination of being an island that has formed as a plateau, still provides plenty of diversity for di� erent species.On Aruba you can � nd patches of sand, to limestone, quartz diorite and sometimes clay.
Geology students visits the island to practice their � eld skill because of the di� erent geological formations that can be found. Local plants
thrive in various locations, from the arid loving vegetation in a “Rooi” (dry river bedding),or in our fresh water vegetation around the Bubali Pond, like Brazil wood, an export product used long time for its bright red hot iron (braise) colored dye properties and brackish water enthusiastic, like the mangroves in Savaneta.
We also have two orchids species that are native to Aruba, tells Fac-undo Franken,policy advisor at Santa Rosa, the headquarters of the Department of Agriculture, Husbandry and Fishery. Exotics like Mahogany can also be found on Aruba in landscaped ter-rains, but because of the climate, the trees are short, not your typical closet or table material.
As Aruba is located only 12 degrees north of the equator, we are blessed with tropical temperatures that on average never drop below 25 degrees Celsius(77 F). Combined with our almost ever blowing trade winds this creates a tropical climate that is home to plants that can adore long hours of direct sun, constant wind and little water.
So it’s no wonder that Cacti and Aloe are popular in landscaping gardens, because of their low mainte-nance.In fact, the o so popular Divi tree, is actually a Fototi tree (related to a mangrove species), that has been pounded by the trade winds into its characteristic shape.
� ink of it as a willow, that when grown carefully will become a bonsai tree. Did you also know that the Divi (Fofoti) tree has no spikes, whereas the Acacia tree that looks and grows similar has an abundance of them? Another famous tree is the Kibrahacha that blooms between April and May with an abundance of yellow blossoms.
Because of the arid climate, most plants will burst into an abundance of � owers during the dry season right a� er
the rain in order to provide their seeds with the best growing conditions.
And not all Cacti are created equal. On Aruba we make a di� erence between a Cadushi, a tree like Cactus that can grow
“After a rainshower, plants and schrubs will burst into an abundance of fl owers. ”

10-15 meters high, that � owers at night and has fruits that we call Dader and the Breba that looks more like a lone branch, sometimes with a single arm shaping it like a four with round fruits. Funnily in Curacao and Bonaire the treelike cactus is called Datu and the lone Cactus is called Kadushi.
Because of their shape single Cacti were o� en used as natural hedges, creating a living mini ecosystem, where wildlife and other plants would thrive.
Over the past few years, the public’s attention has been shi� ing to go greener; not only by using less energy, but also focusing on ways how to create a more sustainable living environment. For instance, devel-opers and architects have been creating with the natural features, like a bolder or a group of Cacti, instead of planning a complete di� erent design.
More and more people are opting to re-use water from their septic tank or installing grey water systems and advanced drip systems that are e� ectively delivering water to the roots of the plants, making it easi-er to create a garden with water loving plants and trees.Banana ( both the green and yellow are o� en planted close to the wash-ing machine watering outlet, since both plants don’t mind full sun yet love the phosphate rich water.
� e second thing most plants (and especially fruit trees or vegeta-ble plants) need is shelter from the sun. By planting trees, or actually shrubs, since most trees do not grow high because of the sun and the trade winds, you can create a cooler place for your plants to thrive.
Some people use netting that will allow for the winds to cool, but takes away the intensity of the sun. As a rule of thumb most plants still need two years of regular watering.
As we are the Department of Agriculture, we focus on help-ing local farmers and preserving Aruba’s fauna. We grow local plants to preserve their heritage and over the years we have seen an increase of people visiting us and buying plants. We are famous for our famer’s market.

Over 15 Years Experience In Building Your Dream Home
Tropical ArchitureSustainable & greenDidn’t we all dream about living on a tropical island? Powdery white beach-es, lush green palm trees waving in the almost ever blowing trade winds and crystalline azure blue waters. What better than to gaze at the starry tropical night and let the so� breeze lull you in to wonderful dreams, before another day in paradise starts?
No more heating fees, no waking up to a stone cold room, scraping ice of your windows, pure sim- ple bliss, living on atropical island.
It’s curious, when you say tropical island, most people imagine Robison Crusoe like living or on the other side of the spectrum lush colonial style homes, breath-taking tropical gardens, pools & ponds with all modern comforts, says Leo Ponson, architect and owner of Archiosa. In fact on Aruba you can � nd almost any building that you can think of. Nowadays with the emphasis on going green and building more sustainable,
there is a trend of using natural in� uenc- es when building as much as we can.
Architecture is the art and science of the built environment. It comprises building a home, designing a garden
to bigger developments such as neighborhoods, parks and cities, but it also includes micro level designs like which materials to choose or what plants to use. Architecture by its nature is complex. Simply put, it’s the science of balancing and measur-ing out mass, space and volume in any given situations. Others call it an art, shaping our dreams and hopes with stone, metal and glass.
Most architects, and I’m no exception, are guided by a mix of the nature of the destined building ( it’s intent) and its surroundings. A storage unit won’t need a lot of natural light, whereas a kindergarten associates with light airy room to play.
People are creatures of habit. Looking at the way the buildings have evolved on the former Dutch Antilles, you can see that the more colonial style homes are reminiscent of the traditional European way, with their tiled sad-dle roofs. Since the trade ships needed ballast, the (inexpensive yet heavy) tiles were shipped here while the precious spices and salt jour-neyed back to Europe.
Some basics here. Maybe you remember the sun turns between two imaginary circles that cut the world horizontally and the earth is
“Tropical Architecture is about mixing environment, purpose, vision and materials ”

tiled at an angle while turning around its axe. � e farther away from the horizontal center (equator), the less intense the sun’s rays and hours of daylight. � e sun rises in the East and sets in the West. � e axes that the sun moves in between are called tropic of Cancer and of Capricorn (Southern hemisphere). � e sun passes twice the equator, once around March 21 and once again around September 21 and when this happens the sun will cast no shadow.
Normally the sun’s shadow cast north at noon.When the sun reach-es either Tropic, it’s the height of summer for that part of the world. (If you are living north of the equator the longest day of the year is around June 21, south of it it’s around December 21) Since Aruba is only 12.19 degrees North of the equator, the sun’s force can become quite intense, especially when she passes directly above around May 8 and September 21. A funny coincidence is that you can actually see the sun move along it path. Especially during December and Febru-ary it seems like the sun sets on a di� erent place.
To withstand the constant tropical and sometimes really hot climate, simple solutions were used ( remember those where the no air-con-ditioning days). � ick wall and small windows to keep the cool air in and the hot air out. Since the trade winds almost constantly blow North East, the homes were located with mayor ventilation (doors and windows) away from the sun’s daily path and into the wind. And even inside the homes the bedrooms were located on the east (windy) side. Did you notice most older homes are almost always at an angle from other newer homes?
Like I said before energy saving solutions are now a major part of designing. With newer materials and energy saving option, like water re-use or the use of LED, it’s easier to build more sustainable. For
me the challenge is to � nd di� erent ways. We all know its cooler in the shade. Yet when building a home, the landscaping is usually le� to last.
Did you know you can reduce your energy cost by simply planting a tree in front of your window? By reducing direct sunlight on your windows, you can reduce your energy cost. You can also create shade with awnings or, like in the old days, shutters in front of your win-dow, which will still let the cooling breeze through. Specialty window dressing may also be an option. For the” Cocolishi” (the extension of our parliament) we created extended roofs to shade the glass façade and it was calculated we would save around 8% in energy costs.
Each day brings us new solutions and ideas and by combining some old and something new we can build together a sustainable future so we can dream and live in paradise.
Special � anks to Leo Ponson, architect & owner of Archiosa

Curtain CallThe solution for your windows.
“� e right type of window dressing can set the mood of a whole room in an instant, making your house your home”
Close your eyes and think of light � owing from crisp white curtains framing the view of our beautiful azure blue ocean. Or think of modern shades made of those clean materials that keep out the heat, yet � lter the light to a delightful ambiance. Curtains or the current virtually endless options in fabrics or materials, window solutions, are essential to creating atmosphere, whether it’s at home or in your o� ce. It’s funny how a window solution can set the mood for a whole room. Roman, honeycomb or rolling, horizontal or vertical shades will add a touch of simple e� ciency. Lush long embroidered drapes will instantly add warmth and co-ziness to an empty space. Yes, the ru� es from the past have moved on to rich washable fabrics that complement a room rather than smothering it. A pattern or bright colors in the fabric can lighten up a dull room in an instant. Somehow
with the right window solution a living room feels more like home and your children’s room more a magic recluse, then just as room. It’s true nowadays the possibilities of styling your windows are vir-tually endless, say Elsje and Carolina Lacle, owners of Curtain Call, it hardly matters what size or shape your windows are. Square, oval, rounded, there can be a customized solution. Since Curtain Call is a spe-cialized company, with over 5 years of experience on Aruba. It’s customary for us to meet with our clients in their home and measure each side of every window you’d like to have dressed. It o� en seems like most frames are equal, but in our experience, it’s better to be exact. At Curtain Call, we have a wide selection of window dressings, ranging from fabrics to synthetic materials, to natural bamboo and we can virtually create any solution to � t your style. We also carry embroidered or patterned fabrics, in di� erent prints and high quality
brands. From simple stripes to intrinsic patterns, there’s an abundance of choice.
We also carry rolls of fabric, to create your own curtains, cushions or upholstery. Sold by the yard in di� erent colors, print textures & prizes.
And of course, at Curtain Call you can � nd anything that accents window dressing, like bars, trims, tabs and tiebacks. When people come to Curtain Call, they know they want quality, but the abun-dance of choice can sometimes be overwhelming. � at’s why we help our clients with a personalized consult in our showroom and try to see the best � t of window dressing for our customer’s interior. We
deliver quality. Take for instance one of our top sellers at the moment, a pull up curtain that doubles as a sun screen, actually keep-ing the heat out. Available in di� erent
colors and sun � lters, it’s a perfect solution to keep your home stylish cool. Of course, living on Aruba, the most famous window dressing are shutters. We carry an updated version of the traditional shutter in di� erent types, so we can accommodate almost any budget. Another great window solution is a rolling curtain that you can “set” in three modes. Fully closed, privacy mode, or open. But the best thing is of course to see for yourself, which solution would � t your home or lifestyle. Since we visit our clients, to get the right � t, it’s best to call beforehand to make an appointment.

Cas Decora A traditional cunucu home
“ The beautiful decorations are typical for a Cas Decora..”
The Typical Country Homes Cas Decora
“ The decorations were used to ward off evil”
Aruba has about 300 country houses. � ese typical country houses referred to as “Cas Floria” or Cas Decora” (Cas = house and Floria = � ower) or Flower decorated houses.� ere are believes that these decorations are Indians markings; how-ever, these decorations are purely imaginative.Decorations of this sort are no longer utilized by present day builders, but can still be seen on many old typical Aruban country houses. First house decoratedCountry houses can be seen especially in Pos Chiquito, Sabana Baso-ra, Sta. Cruz, Paradera, Noord and in the country side of Aruba.
In his book “Mille� ori di Aruba” , father Nooyen states, that the � rst house that used this type of decoration was the house of Bernardo Eman Croes in Pos Chiquito in 1920.
But using Dr. Johan Hartog’s book “Aruba, breve historia” as refer-ence material, he writes that in 1820 some Masons from Curacao started with this type of decoration in Aruba. If we take a third book as reference, the book “� e decorated house in Aruba” by Ito Tromp,
One of Aruba’s monuments is this lovely cunucu home at Boegeroei 18. Built in 1945 by Johan Cornes assisted by his brothers that both were masons, the home is located on a spacious lot.
� eir cousin, Pedro Giel, painted the roof red. � e deco-rations, so typical for Aruba, were created by their uncle Janchi Giel. Even though during the years there have been made modern adjustments to the Cunucu home like new door and window frames and glass panes ( which have no historic value), the home is considered an beautiful exam-ple of the “Cas Decora”.
Also additional is a large cistern to collect rainwater that considering the exterior suspension of the tubing wasn’t originally planned when building the home.
On an archive picture of the home, kindly provided by the current owner, it clearly shows no cistern. We can only as-sume that even then people became aware of water re-use.
� e same picture gives an accurate image of how the home looked before more modern updates were done to the home. For instance ridge, twill lines and the decorative spheres (pirons) on the roof were painted a bright white and the home seemed to be a darker color then the decorative signs, which currently is the other way around.
On the pictures you can also see a wooden paneled door, also known as “Saya cu dèki” was the main entrance and the double shutters cover-
ing the windows. You can even see the swing gate at the corner porch plus gas bottles, giving away the modern date of the picture.

he stated that a� er he was confused with two di� erent year men-tioned, he decided to ask Julio Maduro, a well know Aruban historian. Julio Maduro told him that around 1880, Johannes (Janchi) Wol� , started with the decoration of houses and that Janchi himself said, he learned this trade from his grandfather, who in former times built the � rst lighthouse at California Point.
So we can conclude that Johan Hartog was right that the � rst houses were decorated around 1820, but that some Masons came from Cu-racao and introduced � ower decoration is something that must be veri� ed. � e designs and its originMr. H.J. Mulder made a paper (study) with the title”De vermoedeli-jke herkomst van De Heksentekens van Aruba” or “� e Presumable origin of the � ower decoration in Aruba”. In this paper he rules one by one out from where these decorations came.
In the past there were stories that these designs had a certain type of voodoo, meant to keep away the ghosts of the Indians, but these stories vanished. Also that these decorations came from Indians was ruled out. � at the Masons came from Curacao and introduced these decorations was ruled out as well.
� is is because the decoration work done by the Masons on the coun-try houses (Landhuizen) in Curacao were very nice, but these decora-tions were di� erent from the Aruban typical country houses. So if all the above stories were not quite right, where did these designs come from and what is their origin?
Mr. H.J. Mulder made a more in depth study of the origin of these
designs, but to make a long story short, the conclusion is that it was not the Indians, but immigrants from Europe that came to Aruba and probably introduced these decorations. All Mr. Mulder’s theory men-tioned in his paper can be found in the Arubiana department. As our Cultural HeritageAs we stated above, the � ower decorated Aruban country houses were probably introduced by immigrants, and were adapted by Arubans and some Arubans made their own creations based on what they had copied. In his book “� e decorated house in Aruba”, by Ito Tromp, he gives a resume of family traditions in which Janchi Christiaans started to cut the molds of zinc plates and carton.
Also Janchi Christiaans had his own creation and system while Leon-cio and Bonifacio Henricus, produced their own fantasy, and this is what made these decorations so popular, because lots of people could convert their imagination into expressive art. � is form of art must be seen today as part of Aruban’s cultural heritage and I hope that we can save guard this tradition for future generations. All the above mentioned literature is available in the Arubiana department of the National Library for research, but cannot be borrowed.

Better Homes for Better Living
Over 15 Years Experience In Building Your Dream Home
If there’s one thing, no household is without, that’s a waste bin. In Aruba, almost each home has one of SERLIMAR’s mini-containers, completely black or black with a blue lid.
Every day of the week, between 6 a.m. and 8 p.m., their trucks, drive desig-nated routes to pick up the household waste and dispose of it at Aruba’s o� cial land� ll, located at Parkietenbos.
Because the amount of households is evolving and changing, with the devel-opment of new projects or re-modeling of neighbor-hoods, we have recently updated our routes to serve the Aruban community even better. SERLIMAR also strives to make all of its operations environmentally conscious.
� e name SERLIMAR stands for” SErvicio di LImpieza di ARuba” or Aruba’s Cleaning Service. Originally we were a division of the Department of Public Works (D.O.W.), but 25 years later, we are proudly cel-ebrating our anniversary next month, July, and a separate organization operation “Sui Generis” employing 170 people, says Natalie Wol� , policy advisor.
We still work closely with D.O.W., like cleaning up the streets a� er the last lap during Carnival. Ever since 2005 we have been improv-ing our residential and commercial services, to � t our motto “Cum-pliendo cu nos servicio ”, (Bringing you service).
Our main service is disposing of household waste ( waste collec-tion). If you own a house on Aruba, you can register to obtain a
free household container, our so called mini-container . Simply bring proof of ownership or an authorization of the property’s owner and
a valid I.D. For a small fee the mini-container can be dropped o� at your home. When registering you’ll also receive which day the waste
removal will take place, but you can also call our o� ce with any regards you have at tel: 584-5080 (Mon-Fri 07:00-12:00 & 13:00-16:00), our sta� is more than happy to assist you.
We o� er a wide selection of service to help you dispose of most waste in a safe and sus-tainable way. Besides household waste dispos-al, garden or green waste takes up a big part of residential waste management.
Currently we o� er various ways of waste collection, depending on the size and scope of your project. If you are thinking of trimming down a few branches over the weekend, our newest addition “� e Blue Bag”, might be ideal.
At SERLIMAR we have developed “� e Blue Bag”, especially for residential bulk waste. Sturdier then your average trash bag, with extra room to tie the ends and free pick-up, it’s the answer to and other small waste.

You pay AFL 25 for a set of 10 (33 gallon each), but when you’ve � lled 5, you can already call to them pick up. It’s like your waste magically disappears.
� e second option is to call and have a small container brought over for the weekend, the 1100 L container this container is ideal for the heavier yard work or small home improvement projects. � e cost is AFL 50.00 to drop it o� for a weekend.
If you are seriously planning on remodeling, cutting back your yard or other heavy equipment, we o� er you “30 Yard Giant” (23m3). For A� . 225, including delivery and pick up, you’ll have this beast at your dis-posal during the entire weekend, starting from � ursday till Monday

Of course you can always take your waste to the land� ll and dumping it free of charge.Remember to always transport any waste safely by adding a net on top of your open pick-up, in case of light items such as leaves, and ensuring bigger item, like fridges, are safely secured. Since we have recycling programs at our plant, where we separately collect glass, paper, cardboard, metals and green waste, among others, we highly appreciate it, if you could deliver these sorted.
SERLIMAR also frequently gives back to the Aruban community by facilitating free waste containers in each barrio (neighborhood) of Aruba. � at’s how the idea of the “Caya di Medio Ambiente” was born. An environmental street” is an area where individuals can depos-
it their waste separately. It is a modern version of a mobile land� ll. Besides containers, we have a crew and heavy equipment to help you unload.
Check our website to receive more infor-mation about events, special o� ers and news. We’re glad to get rid of your waste!

Buying at an Auction
“An auction is a di� erent way to buy real estate; you’re more then welcome to assist as a spectator.”
We’ve all have seen the announce-ments in the paper or heard about uncle Joe who bought his dream home at an auction. � en again, very spooky tales are told about buying not your money’s worth. So how does an auction work?
� e most common way to buy a home is between making up an agreement the purchaser and the seller, with or without the help of a realtor. In some cases however homes are auctioned o� . � is is called a so called a foreclosure (or in Dutch “Vrijwillige of Executoriale Veiling”)Buying foreclosures is an art and does not mean you will get a deal. If you are not sure, it’s better to ask professional advice from a real estate agent.
A foreclosure can be voluntary, but will frequently take place by order of ` the bank. If the bank is of the opinion that a customer can no longer meet its obligations, she can commission a notary to proceed to a public sale of the house or land on which a right of mortgage has been established. In such a case it is also said that the bank “proceeds to execute”, hence the term “Executoriale Veiling”. You can � nd the terms of these auctions at any notary o� ce. Any one is free to attend an auction, if you are thinking of buying, be sure to comply with the rules. ( Usually they are published together with the Auction infor-mation)
At foreclosure by auction generally the possibility exists for a certain date (that it is mentioned in the notice of the foreclosure) of bring-ing out an o� er. People who are interested in a speci� c object can submit a written o� er to that foreclosure to the notary handling the concerned foreclosure. � is o� er is transmitted trough the notary to both the creditor (in most common cases the bank) and the debtor. If the o� er is accepted, then the foreclosure sale is revoked. If the o� er is rejected, it is expected that at the foreclosure the object will produce more then the o� er made.
If the foreclosure is initiated by the mortgage holder, then it makes a di� erence to the procedure that is followed. Moreover there will apply always particular foreclosure conditions. � ese are possible among other things are related to the nature of the foreclosure. It is very im-portant in advance of taking knowledge of the general and particular foreclosure conditions.
� e foreclosure is built up out of two parts: the foreclosure at bidding and the foreclosure at junction or Dutch auction (Afmijning). Participants bid openly against one another, with each bid being higher than the previous bid. � e auction ends when no participant is willing to bid further, or when a pre-determined “buy-out” price is reached, at which point the highest bidder is provisionally granted the object. � is is kind of the suspense part of the auction. If nobody bids, the property is taken o� the list and noted as unsold. So if you are waiting to get the lowest price, it might just happened, you played your cards wrong.
� en the second part of the auction takes place. � e notary adds to the highest bid a sum that has been predetermined with the creditor.� e notary begins with a high asking price, which is lowered with equal amounts, e.g. 100.000 AFL until some participant is willing to accept the auctioneer’s price, by calling out “mijn” (Mine ass the pos-sive of me) Hence the term “Afmijnen”.
� is part is also referred to as Dutch Auctioning, since this way of auctioning o� is traditionally common on the � ower and fruit auc-tions in Holland Especially this part is quite tricky. If you have a cer-tain amount in mind and someone else calls just before you “Mine”, the object is sold to someone else. � is can be a nerve-racking mat-ter. You can have a certain amount in mind, for which you want to buy, but if someone else calls before you, that person is the purchaser or “Afmijner”. Particularly for inexpert foreclosure purchasers, the afmijnen can be a nerve-racking matter. Too early afmijnen results in paying more than planned
A foreclosure is never without dangers! If you are not quite sure, you can ask a third party, like a realtor to assist you. � e amount that has been “Mined” is put on top of the highest bid and is the closing amount to pay. If no one has called mine, the notary, at a committed sum, will hammer the auction o� .
It is likely to think that the highest bidder or the “Afmijner” will now be the purchaser of the object.� is isn’t always the case. With in the general conditions, the foreclosure seller can stipulate various condi-tions, under witch an object maybe granted. Or the so-called pur-chaser can be acting out of a third party. (e.g. a realtor)When every-thing is agreed upon, and when all costs involved, like the purchase price and additional fees are paid, the notary will draw up a so-called certi� cate of discharge, in which is observed that all has been paid by the purchaser.
� e property title of the object is obtained when the notary registers a copy (duplicate) of a set of notarial deeds consisting of the individual deed of special conditions, if any, the record(s) of opening bid and Dutch auction, the deed of assignment, if any, and the instrument of mandate, if any and the certi� cate of discharge with the land register. If you’d like to obtain more information, we are more then happy to assist you. You can e-mail us or call us for personal contact with one of our associates.
