I've noticed in many older Mexican kitchens, including this first one, there aren't any above counter cabinets. Why is this? It means you continually have to bend over to the under-counter cabinets for everything - china, glasses, etc.

Great video. Great contrast choices. Keep doing one of those real estate comparison videos when you travel to a new place. I think buying a home in Mexico can make sense if you know you want to live in it full-time 7+ years and you have already lived in the target area via a rental. If you have Mexican residency, buying a home as mostly an investment play seems like a questionable Mexico investing choice currently, given the run up in real estate values and given Mexican treasuries are earning around 10% interest. Speaking of Mexican Treasuries, think about doing a short video some day on starting a Cetes Directo account. Some of your viewers might find that interesting.

US dollar is at all time lows to the Mexican Peso right now. $17.95 Pesos to $1US. That’s almost a 15% decline from the high of $21 pesos Mexican to the dollar last year. Expats & tourists are both feeling that pinch right now. At least it’s not as bad as the decline in the Canadian $1 which is down 21.7%, the EU down 18% & the UK pound down 23.7% to the peso in the last year.

Great video. If we were still looking for a home this would give us an excellent idea of the range of options and styles. We ended up with a mix of these two: a very modern house on a moderate size lot with a large garden in the rear and a creek bordering in a small gated community with children playing in the streets. There is plenty of opportunity to modify and make the home our own from a screened in terrace and ceiling fans to photovoltaic and whole house water softener and reverse osmosis filtration system. My engineer wife brought only a tenth of her workshop, but she is admired by every workman we hire. And as Paul says, projects are reasonably affordable in Mexico. Oh, our HOA fees are only $400 MXN per month.

Mexico homes all have issues with gas, water and electrical connectors, connection and supply. Home in the cold areas are generally very cold in winter. Many locations in Mexico get very cold winter. People think of Mexico as warm climate but not. Many places in Sonora, Chihuahua, Coahuila, Toluca,... Have issues with pipes freezing in the walls. Very very hard to find central heating. My home in Monterrey has 8 mini split units (lots of electricity) to heat and cool the home. Very common to have $1000 USD a month to heat or cool on the worst months.

@@greenzone5146 true. Apples are generally red and orange generally orange. Not the point. That is why I said "many" locations, not all. For some people over 75 is hot and want air conditioning. Plus it adds value. When looking at a home, must check structure, wiring, plumbing and workmanship. Don't worry about the flooring, worry what is under the floor. What you will find is sad in all of those items if property inspected. We can do better. I know, personally several owners of some of the largest construction firms in Mexico. They agree the work is not on par but they also tell me the buyers don't understand what they are buyer so they sell it anyways for profit. Shame on them and the workers and the buyers. This is a great topic to tell all our friends, relatives and public so we can push up the quality of the products being sold (home), improve the labor force with training and educate buyers. Knowledge is power.

Nice video and explanation of housing in Mexico. I just bought a very well constructed home in Reforma, Oaxaca. It is a 10 minute walk to the business area of Reforma, and 30 minute walk to Santa Domingo an the Zocalo. I paid 6 million pesos for the house and did major updating to replace all the wiring and water systems, and rehab the whole home to new standard. All the living is on one level. As an older man I wanted safety and comfort. Low maintenance was a major goal. I love living in a Mexican neighborhood with access to the tourist area. I walk 5 - 10 miles a day and never get bored! I love living in Mexico!

Both are more than we would be looking for. Our goal is to start in Mexico, stay until our senior dogs pass away, and then travel around Mexico for a couple years and then take several years to slow travel south until we finish in Argentina. We speak Spanish, have lived abroad before, and have no desire to surround ourselves with tourists and expats. We thrive on the cultural experiences and do not want USA-light. We love our country, but need the adventure. When we do finally settle down, we want to renovate something in a typical middle class place.

Thanks for the video. My wife and I are also looking for homes in Mexico, and prefer single family homes, something that you can actually work on and make it your own. I think gated communities are good when you first start off, renting, but to buy I don’t like them because I’m not a fan of any HOA’s. Plus having your own courtyard and garden is always a big plus for us.

We bought a home with gorgeous gardens and a gated community. While I hate HOAs in the States, I like not being on our own in a country where I know the language, but I am continually discovering how much I don't know about the culture, from electrical systems and plumbing, to kids and holidays. We didn't want an expat resort, so a close Mexican community has many advantages, despite living in a very rural location in western Colorado for 50 years.

Hey Paul and Linda; Great video as always and nice to see Linda participate and enjoying herself. Quick question about real estate prices in Mexico. I see a lot of properties, listed by different companies, list the prices in U.S. dollars. Does that mean that they are targeting these properties to foreign investors? Maybe the real question here is; when other properties are listed in millions, (or tens of millions) of MX Pesos, what percentage of local population can afford those prices?

If it were me, and I had to choose between the two places, the hosue wins out. The price difference could be used to do renovations. I live for outdoor spaces. I've been looking in the Cabo San Lucas area for a vacation place, as I'm tired of paying Air BnB fees. Prices are high in that area, and I haven't found anything I can afford that I love. I'm starting to give up on the idea, as I only spend time in Mexicol about twice a year.

I'd rather live in the cooler and less humid interior and then travel to the beach during the winter months. anyways, will be interesting to see if you guys pick one of these places or keep looking.

It's interesting I never really saw "Americanized suburbs" in my Mexico travels. Didn't see many front or backyards with grass and stuff. The homes were built right out to the street and (seems) the first thing they'll built were tall walls all around the property topped with security spikes and stuff. And they'll put in patio areas all over and use a lot of big planters for their garden greenery. Also one caveat, they don't have zoning laws like we have in the states so if you're buying a single home somewhere, 6 months down the line someone might put a nightclub in next door. Just saying.

I like both even though they are very different from each other. But I think I like the possibilities of the first house; add a small swimming pool and a Jacuzzi, remove the bars from the windows, and, well, a lot of improvements, but the location is better than the other property (in my opinion). Saludos ✌️

Paul- Agree with your assessment, and just think of the new video content with a house! We know all about that! Unlike the US, renovations are actually fun the Mexico at least in our experience. Enjoy your search! 🤗

Hi guys ! Love your Chanel ! My husband and I currently live in SMA but have been to Tequis before and thought it was quaint ! We were thinking of going back over and looking at property for sale. My question is this. Did you guys settle here or are you still searching for the perfect location ? If your there we would love to meet you both 😊

@@qroo I agree with you in more space...That is why I bought a 3/2 condo , with big balcony , even when it is just hubby and me, but the extra space really help with home office, and guest space..also the garage and extra room for storage is a great bonus...no more cleaning pool or any yard maintenance is my husband favorite..lol...I travel and come back and everything is where I left it...Safety is key specially in Mexico...hope you find a good one..Love your videos.

Love seeing the personal tour. Would live if you showed the neighborhoods too. How far from beach?
@roundpaws
@roundpaws 2 жыл бұрын
You could speed up / edit the tour to allow time to see the area and drive to town etc. I find one of the biggest decisions is location amd proximity so it is nice to get a feel for those things when you live far away

Paul and Linda forgive me if you've covered this topic in a previous video. But what about financing on Mexico? Do most people pay in full? Thanks for the video. For what it's worth that courtyard is awesome.
