I’ve lived in Mexico for over 5 years and own real estate here. Personally, I would avoid properties marketed in US dollars because they target foreigners and likely are overpriced. The other issue is that although the “asking” price is USD, when you sit down to close the deal, the dollar amount is converted to Mexican pesos at the mid-market rate for that day. If the exchange rate moves the wrong way, a buyer would pay not only more (in pesos) for the property, but they would lose additional money when transferring funds from a foreign currency. As examples, the Canadian Dollar has lost about 13.5% to the peso in the past 12 months and the USD has lost about 9.75%. This is because of complicated issues with the central banks but won’t last forever (but who knows). That probably makes right now a bad time to purchase or build a home if using foreign funds that must be converted to pesos. Oh, don’t forget that Mexico real estate is for the most part a “cash” based business. Mortgage loans would have sky high interest rates.

Hey! I participated in the video. You can either gain or lose with the exchange rate. It happens with foreign investments. If that is really a concern, they may use derivatives to hedge their position. The dollar also has its own momentum. It can go up or down. So, if it is a good moment to purchase or not is not just determined by the dollar and the peso. It is determined by a group of factors.

@@MomentumBlockhome Foreign investors, especially those looking for short term rentals, should educate themselves about the history of the currency exchange rates as well as income and capital gains tax laws in Mexico. Just one example, Airbnb requires the host to have an RFC number registered or they withhold 20% of the rental for income tax.

What I see from here Playa del Carmen resale is very hard and long. Another thing if you think buy a land and build a house the price to build can change fast . The quality is not so good , depreciation is fast here. I see alote owner start to renovate after three years because competition. Another thing most of the time they don't really think about reserve found for condo, they can ask you money to fixe something in the building. I meet two builder here and both don't really have money to build they have the land without permits and they try to find investor because if you build, a 8 unit you need minimal of 400 k USD to start the project, but you need 700 to 800 k usd without the land, anything can happen here when you build, base product going up last year's like sand 30% all is build with concrete.

I’ve traveled all over mexico, lived in playa del carmen and my main take away is: it is the most egregious lipstick on a pig ive ever seen. Consistently about most all new condos in all riviera maya. It’s built super cheap on the inside, electrical, piping, etc. And then overpriced because of location and pseudo luxury finishes. Couple that with the extremely harsh climate of constant humidity with high salt content. Electric appliances usually last 60% of what they normally would. power outages from an underdeveloped grid is common. Many expensive issues you don’t find out until after a while. Beware.

Nor tie- up 100- 300 Gs in a place based solely upon STR cashflow projections at (or near) the TOP of the market...) The ONLY savvy "time to BUY" is AFTER a correction, when it's 'rebounding....' presuming another 8- 12 year run? Then RESELL again, before the next one! (THAT IS the most important, "investment" POINT. Or it was... before 2020 plus?! These days... who really, knows???)

As a landlord of many rental properties and real estate broker for over two decades, I would say never invest in rental real estate that is located a long distance from you. Too many things can go wrong. When they do, you have to pay someone to fix the problems in your absence, and those things can cost lots of money, particularly if you don't have a trustworthy property manager and network of trusted repair contractors. I have a friend that purchased a couple rentals in another state where she planned to rent one and let her daughter live in the other while going to college. She figured she would earn some quick equity as real estate prices rise. The last I heard the Airbnb didn't do so great last year, presumably because the property wasn't cash flowing since it was purchased with a home equity line on which interest rates have doubled since a year ago. Also, there is always the risk the daughter may decide to go to another college. Like financial planners say about stock speculators. They're not investing - They're just trading. Same goes for real estate speculators.

I am a retired real estate broker/agent in Baja California Sur..., representing buyers and sellers here since 1996. There was no mention of closing cost or annual fee for a bank trust (fideicomiso) when a foreigner purchases property in the restrictive zone in Mexico. Closing cost can be 4-5%, annual fee depending on which bank holds the bank trust and the amount of purchase price, average is $600usd and more.

Also no mention of the VAT 16% tax that presumably comes out of the quoted rent. Also condo fees and maintenance costs. Additionally if the new financing arrangement causes a surge of demand for investment, this might drive up supply of rentals, possibly coincident with a crash of the global economy after 2025 when WW3 is expected to have begun (no joke). No way I would get stuck with a 7 - 9% mortgage headed into the dystopian world incoming. Developing world real estate will increase in value, but the supply of renters and vacationers could plummet at any time. Although any WW3 and CBDC crap (devolvement of the West) would send Westerners fleeing to the developing world, which may prop up supply of tenants. Note no fidelcomiso needed in the interior.

I agree with several of the comments to be careful, and interview folks who have invested for over 7 years. All the folks you spoke with are entrepreneurs, and are starting projects, and don't have track history. But I mostly would be cautious because the global world structure is changing. 10 years from now the world will look like nothing you could have imagined. Things are going to get better, not worst. But there is a time of the dust settling after major shifts, which we are currently in. And you may want to wait until the dust has settled. All that being said, trust your intuition, that is your highest wisdom.

I participated in the video, my name is Adrián. I invite you to check the company's portfolio (Inversiones Capital) of past projects. Naomi is a presale and, as it is well known, presales have higher risks themselves. We should always keep in mind that there are risks involved and we should think about our preferences. If we cannot assume that level of risk is better to avoid getting in. And yes, I am an entrepreneur. And about the market's momentum: it is really hard to beat the market. Even harder when you are waiting to buy a house as you are betting against a multi-year trend. So, the market's momentum is important. But as you say: trust your intuition. That is why you should deeply research and decide what is your own choice.

Love your channel guys and great info about Playa Del Carmen. As a long time real estate investor I’d be very cautious of financing any property to rent. Cash is indeed King in this business. There’s a big difference in what happens when something like the pandemic comes up and you “own” your property instead of having it financed. The bank wants to get paid even though nobody is booking your room. Please don’t purchase properties you can’t afford to have sit idle.

Less red tape and headaches with start up and maintenance of the rental business….but in the end, if you find the right professionals + property manager, it has the potential to be a smooth investment in PDC 👌 thks for sharing!

Lots more options in Mexico. Many real estate experts point out that there has been a lot of overbuilding in 2021 and 2022. There is too much product out there so Airbnb owners are forced to drop their rent prices. Tulum is a disaster. There is no infrastructure. No septic systems for many recently built properties. There is no decent electrical grid. Even the restaurants run on generators. Watch "The Dark Side of Tulum" on RU-vid. The railroad is very political. Not popular with the indigenous people as it will do a lot of damage to the surrounding environment. I would not buy now. Especially in that area. Good wishes though with how you decide to proceed.

The west coast and the interior of Mexico are also awesome. Yes, lots more options in Mexico. Tourists and investors decide what to do.

You are two nice young people, but I would caution you to avoid offering anything that could be construed as real estate or financial advice. Better to stick with your very pleasant travelogues. The reality is that foreigners contemplating buying real estate in Mexico are facing a road fraught with financial danger. It is a mistake to assume that the norms of property ownership associated with English-speaking countries apply in Mexico. They don’t. I won’t belabor the point, but a little research will easily uncover many cases of foreigners attempting to buy or buying real estate in Mexico getting completely burned. I’m not saying it can’t be done, but any foreigner purchasing real estate in Mexico needs to complete a thorough due diligence and be prepared to lose the entirety of their investment. It’s not for the unsophisticated or faint of heart. I do love the Yucatan Peninsula. First traveled there when PDC had 3,000 people. It is still a nice place, but in 1986 it was truly idyllic. Travel safe and continue to build pleasant memories. One last thought… NEVER, NEVER even think about buying a timeshare! Anywhere!

I’ve lived in PDC now for 1.5 years. My brother has been looking at purchasing a condo. One thing I’ve noticed a lot from being here and looking into that space is that it’s almost impossible to resell. Many people have had their condos on the market for 3 years. There is a lot of sketchy buildings and even trying to get good reliable contractors for maintenance is tough. The realtors here are full of a lot of BS. any government projects like the Mayan rail track will probably never come to fruition.

Also / you’ll have to essentially pay all cash for the place. Mortgages are insane and it’s so complicated. That fancy condo on 38th is essentially just used as an Airbnb.

I participated in the video, my name is Adrián. Thanks for the comment. There are 3 disadvantages that are true: quality is really important and there are too many buildings that have not good quality and they sell them too cheap. That also affects the secondary market: as some houses are built with the low quality they cannot sell them. About reliable contractors for maintenance: networking is the key to this. I also have this concern and that is why I network so much. And we should not forget the long-term market either.

Hey Tiffany, I work in real estate here and it's been my experience that well-priced and well-located resale properties do Not sit on the market long. If a property is sitting on the market it's usually because of some deficiency such as blocked views (I generally do not recommend back-facing units for that reason) or very close to night clubs etc.

I appreciate this content and love Mexico. I also have great environmental concerns about the Yucatan area basically from Cancun down to Tulum. All of that environment is a beautiful Matrix of Swiss cheese like limestone. Many people know about the cenotes that can be found there also. Development seems to be not giving a high regard to the sensitivity of this geographic environment. The consequences could be absolutely devastating for the local people and nature, for tourists, and for investors. 🌴

I bought a condo in Aldea Zama and I want to warn everybody. There is no plan for Tulum, developers can build what they want without proper roads, sidewalks or bike lanes. It’s designed to make walking impossible, with endless loops and dead ends to discourage walking so everybody has to take taxis or rent cars. It’s supposed to be ecological but there is nothing ecological about it. There is no trash separation, no composting, no recycling, no water treatment, no grey water usage. Loads of diesel generators around. Land is so expensive that it raises the price of everything and the taxis have a mafia where you cannot even call one, you have to take the one that is parked next to your building and be forced to pay $10 to go into town, twice for the beach. You pay it because the heat exhaustion is real. Don’t be fooled, there are so many condos now that now they do not rent like they used to. I went two months without guests because of the seaweed problem.

Dear Mitch. I participated in the video, my name is Adrián. I would love to be interviewed in 5 years, for sure. In most countries, the government changes every four years or less. It is commonly called democracy. We cannot control politics. But ownership rules are much harder to change. Notaries are independent and they are expensive because they are trustworthy. The registry itself is also trustworthy and rules can be enforced in international courts. I would like to know more details about your friend. Did he use a trust? Did he open a company? Because it really depends on the vehicle that he used. Foreigners cannot directly buy property near the coast. It is true, and one of the guys that were interviewed mentioned it. But you can own the vehicle that owns the property. It is the same in stocks. You own the vehicle. Not the thing itself. I always advise doing your own research because everyone has their own bias, experience and beliefs.
