Playa del Carmen Real Estate Deals Guaranteed to Improve Beach Time

Top real estate deals Playa del Carmen

If you have ever considered a life abroad, where your hard-earned money goes further as far as lifestyle goes, you are not alone. It is estimated that up to two million Americans live south of the border. Popular Mexican destinations for American and Canadian expatriates include the Pacific Coast’s Baja California and the south-eastern Mexican Caribbean region, home to the world-renowned Riviera Maya.  A third top choice is the colonial state of Guanajuato where San Miguel D’Allende, rated in 2017 by Travel & Leisure as the #1 city in the world, is located.

One of the primary pros for establishing a new life in Mexico is the lower cost of living. Not only are doctor’s appointments, groceries and taxes much more affordable, but purchasing a home on or near the beach is a very achievable dream.

Mexico’s close proximity to its northern neighbors is another contributing factor for those contemplating the purchase of a vacation home or a permanent international move. Direct flights to and from many Canadian and American cities offer snowbirds, retirees and other sun seekers an important convenience should they need to return home to tend to business or family matters.

The Cancun International Airport is located at the northern point of the Riviera Maya, just forty minutes from Playa del Carmen. In the last ten to fifteen years, real estate prices in this area have soared. Regardless, thousands of international expats continue to flock to the Mexican Caribbean to enjoy a higher quality of living for significantly less than other metropolitan cities worldwide.

The seaside city has much to offer visiting travelers and residents alike. Dozens of eco-parks are scattered amidst the lush jungle surrounding Playa del Carmen. There are performing arts theaters, galleries, a planetarium, an aquarium and museums. Hospitals and clinics offer excellent facilities with a myriad of health and dental specialists providing top-notch services and treatments. Furthermore, there are three commercial shopping centers, furniture stores, prominent banking institutions, schools, universities, Home Depot, Office Max and many grocery superstores including two Wal-marts.

Yet, while you can find almost every convenience from home in Playa del Carmen, it has remained a small and friendly city – one that can still be navigated via bicycle. Although it enhances life here in Mexico, speaking Spanish is not a necessity. The Riviera Maya accounts for forty percent of the country’s tourism revenue; so a large majority of those employed in this region speak English.

Since the real estate market has been hot in the Riviera Maya for over a decade now, it has drawn investors and has resulted in many exciting developments. Unfortunately, this boom has enabled some, who call themselves agents, to swarm in to claim their piece of the pie, without being licensed or even understanding Mexican real estate laws.

That being said, with minor due diligence, you can find licensed real estate agents and advisors to work with. There are several established companies in Playa del Carmen that have the experience and the resources to make the acquisition of your dream home a very pleasant process, as it should be!
