Select Mexico Properties

Although the economic downturn has hit many American families hard, people are still buying Mexican vacation homes. If that seems like a strange purchase, think about it for a moment. If you’re looking at a Mexican vacation home as a status symbol, then you might be right. Many Americans, however are looking at Mexican vacation homes as a solid investment, and a way to shield their savings from the possibility of recession.

Mexican vacation homes turn out to be a great investment, especially in areas like Puerto Vallarta, where the tourists are flocking in record numbers. Puerto Vallarta is undergoing a building boom the likes of which we’ve never seen before. Many new faces are expected in Puerto Vallarta, both as tourists and permanent residents.

Right now, more than 50,000 retirees call Puerto Vallarta home. Many of them live in homes they originally built as Mexican vacation homes, and converted to their full time residence when they stopped working. The property values here have tripled in the past ten years. They’re expected to double in the next five, and people who own property here in Mexico will reap excellent ROI.

The real estate market here favors the buyers right now, but with the coming influx of people, the prices you see today won’t be available for long. By 2015, the population of Puerto Vallarta is expected to increase by nearly 75% over what it is today. Along with this increase will come a shortage of prime properties. Those prime properties are being sold right now to investors who want to take advantage of the coming tourist boom, the rising property values and the low cost of living. (Not to mention that Puerto Vallarta is one of the nicest places on Earth!)

A Mexican vacation home is a great way to protect your investments and provide a comfortable, enjoyable place to relax and unwind. Many people who build Mexican vacation homes choose to rent them out while they’re away, turning them into income generators that can pay for themselves. What’s not to like about that?

We have prime residential properties for sale right now that will allow you to take full advantage of the rising real estate values here in Puerto Vallarta.

The worst part about a Puerto Vallarta vacation is coming back home! If you’ve ever been here, you know exactly what I mean. The entire area is beautiful and relaxing. You know what? The people who live in Puerto Vallarta find it beautiful and relaxing, too! That’s what has so many visitors thinking about a Mexican vacation home.

Life here is different. It’s slower and more relaxing. Neighbors still greet neighbors, and the “urban lifestyle” doesn’t mean so much here. That’s not to say that Puerto Vallarta isn’t exciting. Quite the contrary. But if you’re ready to look at making changes to your lifestyle, look at what a Mexican vacation home in San Pancho has to offer.

Why San Pancho? San Pancho is north of Puerto Vallarta. It’s close enough to take advantage of the services available there, and all that Puerto Vallarta has to offer, but it’s far enough away that the tourists don’t make it up here in the same numbers that they do in Puerto Vallarta.

With a Mexican vacation home in San Pancho, you’ll literally have the best of both worlds: everything you need can be found in Puerto Vallarta, and everything you want from a Mexican vacation home can be found in San Pancho. No compromises, just the best of everything.

The cost of living down here can’t be beat, either. There’s no better place to spend your vacation dollars than in San Pancho. Your Mexican vacation home can double as a second home, when you’re looking for somewhere to winter over, and when you’re ready to retire altogether, make your Mexican vacation home your permanent address.

Millions of Americans already own residential property in Mexico. They’ve discovered that it’s the best way to preserve and extend the wealth they’ve worked hard to accumulate their entire lives. Mexico is close to the US, and yet, it offers a unique culture and charm that can’t be found elsewhere.
