We Bought a 4 Bedroom Home in Puerto Aventuras Mexico To Use As A Vacation Rental - Lessons Learned

[@amyexner]

Omg..that’s my dream.. I’m currently have my house up for sale-downsizing-and planing to buy a place in Mexico. I can’t wait when the time come to shop for a place in Mexico; like the idea where this house is located…done with playa del Carmen, and Puerto Vallarta.

[@DestinationRetirement]

Congrats! My vacation rental is in Mérida. I am finding so many of my friends with international homes are wanting to do house swaps. Can't wait for that. I have to keep working for a few more years, so like you, I am renting my house out until I can be in the Yucatan full time!

[@davidpatton7940]

Wow, what a beautiful house. Thankyou for doing this info tour. God bless.

[@WayneGluyas]

Beautiful home. Smart investment. Congratulations well done & thanks for sharing your journey RE arriving at purchasing this property.

FYI, beaches in Mexico are public even in a gated community, anyone can walk in the beach, that is in the Mexican Constitution, a street vendor can go to any beach in Mexico.

Not really, they need a permit and the permit holder is always a syndicate , they work for the syndicate.

[@moisesvazquez1388]

@@arturoag6609 You are wrong. I have family working in the government and SAT is going after these people that don't live in Mexico and make a profit without paying taxes. You will see that happen very soon

[@alalesc3796]

This is an amazing beautiful house!! Nice couple!

[@dreamretirementinmexico]

yes super nice couple ...and their home is awesome. :)

[@amyexner]

How much was the house?

[@Rafagazz]

Very good deal my friends

[@digital1937]

It's a nice home for $480K. The kitchen seems a little confined with that wide wrap around bar and maybe an island would have been better? How easy is it to get around in the Puerto Aventura area without a vehicle? It would be interesting to know if they paid cash for it or financed it, how much property taxes are, how much the property management company charges, and how much rental income they make after expenses are deducted?

[@MrShekinah777]

I was waiting for the same information. 3 out of a 10 for the questions asked 🤦🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️

[@HectorCampos-bx4pi]

And with the new TULUM Airport, almost right next to it, is even better.

[@moisesvazquez1388]

FYI, Article 27 of the Mexican Constitution paragraphs 4, 5 and 6 states the following: 4- La modificación al Artículo 27 repercutiría favorablemente en los ingresos tributarios de los municipios, ya que al tener los extranjeros la propiedad de las tierras para uso habitacional, las autoridades podrán recaudar el impuesto predial. 5- La adquisición de tierras en las fronteras y en las playas se condicionará especialmente a que el uso de las tierras sea destinado para viviendas única y exclusivamente; además de que no tenga un uso comercial, industrial, agrícola, o cualquier otro que implique explotación económica directa o indirecta. 6- El extranjero deberá convenir con la Secretaría de Relaciones Exteriores la compra de la propiedad. Basically it says that you cannot profit or make money from a house you bought and that you have to inform SRE about the property you are buying, if you fail to do this you could be in trouble and you could lose your investment you just made. You can check article 27 from the Mexican Constitution. Thanks

Everybody does do , they buy and rent

[@lupitatorres3697]

Pero: ¿como es que pueden los extranjeros comprar propiedades, si no son ciudadanos?.

[@scotts5142]

@@lupitatorres3697 There is multiple ways the easiest being you get your temporary residence and work your way to citizenship. The other way is to open a trust and purchase it using said trust . There are a few other ways but I'm sure you know how to use Google. 😁👍

Literally every new condo project in Tulum has people using it for airnbnb

Beautiful place

[@OIRAMAGETRO]

If I were to buy a home in Mexico and pay the entire amount without a mortgage, how would I go about moving money from my account in the US?

[@PrimoChris09]

A suitcase

[@saralopez8200]

Just saw their episode of House Hunters International and they made it sound like they were going to live in the house, not buying as a STR. 🤔

[@Dean403]

I've been looking at property there and how the heck did they get that place for $480k? Even a 3 bed condo is listed for like $600k+!!

Not in mexico , they said in mexico eat cats food, why you wants to live in México then.

[@HectorCampos-bx4pi]

Ive seen people in the United States living in the sidewalks eating cat foof with pizza left overs... hahahah

[@latinoandproud14]

480 K, really even 8 bed 8 bath are not worth that much,the average salary there is about $500 .

[@PuraVidaVacation]

Actually it depends on location. There are houses in Puerto Aventuras in the millions. For that community 400-500K is common.
