Investing in Real Estate in Mexico has never been easier, safer and advantageous if you hire a licensed and qualified Realtor that looks out for your best interests.
Your investment can be risky, complicated and a bad experience if you decide to use a pseudo Realtor that doesn’t care about you and is only looking to make a juicy commission.

If passed into law, foreigners buying a home in Mexico could do so without obtaining it via the Bank Trust (Fideicomiso in Spanish) approach; which has been the way Realtors have...

The number of properties sold in the Los Cabos real estate market for 2012 was up 9% from the year before. In 2011, there were 440 units sold in Los Cabos and...

With more than 340 days of summer-like weather, Los Cabos continues to be a vacation paradise. And with so many beaches available to the public, is it any wonder, the sister cities of Cabo San Lucas and San Jose del Cabo have enjoyed the high volume of tourism they have over the years.
In Baja California, federal law dictates no beach can be inaccessible to the public. According to the Constitution of Mexico, 72 feet from high tide is designated...

When you hear that Cabo is safe and Mexico’s economy is strong many would think “That’s not true, I just heard on the news that Mexico is dangerous and we should stay away!”
Whilst it is undoubtedly true that there are areas of Mexico that are dangerous, to simply tar the entire country with that brush is stretching the truth to breaking point. In fact, conspiracy theorists would say that in order to not violate NAFTA and other agreements the US cannot directly use protectionism, so it leaves it to the media to play this protectionist role. The US media has portrayed...
