Why not use contain?
 
'contain' => array(
            'Property' => array(
                 'conditions' => array(
                        'Property.id' => $foo),
                 'fields' => array(
                       'Property.field1,
                       'Property.field2')),
                            'Country' => array(
                                    'fields' => array(
                                           'Country.name'))));
 
Something along those lines.

Subject: Re: Finding deeply related models


Oh no ways.... 

Hmm..

$this->Property->recursive = 1;
pr($this->Property->find('all'));

and it prints out the properties without extended associated data...

$this->Property->recursive = 2;
pr($this->Property->find('all'));

and it returns nothing at all... 

hmmm let me look through my models - maybe I have some code in the callbacks
which is causing problems...

Where on earth did you get that idea?

See: http://book.cakephp.org/view/439/recursive

Check the model tests in the source, there are many examples of
setting recursive to 2, 3, and even 6 (in the testReadFakeThread
method).
