Hi Jan. So happy you like my videos. Thank you so much. Would love to meet you in February when you come down to PV and discuss your needs with regard to purchasing a home here in Puerto Vallarta and perhaps looking at what is available on the market then. If you would like me to email you some available homes, so as to get a feel for the market here, please drop me an email at stan.freeman@cblacosta.com. Look forward to seeing you soon. Cheers. Stan

@@user-dq7nq7kl4s Thanks for your message. I’m happy that you got to experience Puerto Vallarta and found it to be a beautiful place. I do understand that it may not suit everyone and respect your decision to look at other places in Mexico. Have you looked at Mérida in Yucatan. It’s beautiful there too although not on the coast it’s only a half hour from it. If you change your mind and consider PV again please look me up. I truly hope you find the place of your dreams in Mexico.

Nice video. Well done!

Ok so I have just got to ask this question...I am toying with moving to Mexico from the U.S. using my social security. My fiance will also have hers. Combined, we can't afford to live here with only soc sec. But apparently we can there. But with so many affordable, beautiful places there, friendly people and great climate, why are so many people trying to get to the states? To my beautiful natives of Mexico....If you can't afford there, you DEFINITELY cannot afford to live here! Whatever you were told about the American dream is a lie! It is ridiculously expensive, the food is crap and the healthcare system is broken. Save yourselves and live in your beautiful country and I will see you someday hopefully. Can someone PLEASE speak to this?...and keep it real please!

You are correct about the American dream and how it is no longer viable. Most of the people crossing the border now are not Mexicans but are from all parts of the world. Many Mexicans are returning to their homeland and that’s great to see.

@davidsebastianelli1326

First off, the people crossing the border are coming from everywhere, even from as far away as China. Most of the Mexicans that you speak of are coming to the US to work. The average wage in most of Mexico is around $12.00us dollars per DAY. (As a comparison, a Mexican lawyer makes around $2200us per month and up) They aren't coming to the US to live or take our jobs. In a few months of working here they can make as much as what it would take a full year working here. They usually go back and live on the US dollars that obviously go a lot further living in Mexico. BTW- PV is one of the more expensive places to live in Mexico and it gets extremely hot and humid during the summer. I live like a Rey without skimping in an area that isn't considered a tourist hot spot for around $1100us per month, that includes paying $80.00us for full coverage health care through IMSS that is free for citizens born here. You can also use private health care that is extremely affordable. To see a specialist will set you back around $40.00us and a Doctors visit for minor things costs around $3.00us. My friend had to get 10 stiches for a surfing accident while visiting and it cost him $42.00us including antibiotics and pain killers. Most of the food is organic and inexpensive. An avocado costs about $0.45us and fish taco con todo runs about $1.35us. Everyone is friendly and helpful. Before moving here I remote beach camped and surfed throughout Baja for over 40 years with never any problems. This year you have to show an economic solvency of approximately $3100usper month in order to get a Temporary Resident Visa, otherwise you would have to do border runs within 180 days to renew your FMM. Do lots of research before moving here because It's not for everybody! Buena suerte!

Wages are very low in mexico, also quality of live and the level of insecurity keeps going up here in mexico. If you wanna go buy clothing, shoes, computer, fridge, tv, etc, everything is more expensive here than in the us, import taxes are very high in mexico. Here you gotta pay to drive on most freeways and that is expensive for most mexicans

See you soon! October 10 👏👏👏👏counting the days.

Hi Julie. I hope you do get in touch. I will help as best I can. New video coming tomorrow.

That's a long hurricane season. What about mosquitoes and diseases they carry? They love me. 🥴 What about cockroaches? I used my cc when traveling in another country and someone at the restaurant wrote down the info & used it and I didn't find out until a month later, when my cc company contacted me. So, I do have concerns about accessing & spending $ there. Thanks for the awesome video! 🙂

Hurricanes are always a concern but fortunately we get notice and have time to prepare or move somewhere to safety in the event of a big one. Of course you must have hurricane insurance on your property here. As for cockroaches, yes, they are here in PV too. They did survive the asteroid after all LOL. I live in a condo on the 4th floor nd have never seen one in my condo but have downtown a few times. Not as bad however, as some places in Mexico like the Yucatan. Never, ever let a credit card leave your person in Mexico. What happened to you has happened to me on one occasion. I was careless and handed my card to a server who took it away to process. Now in PV and most of Mexico they bring a hand held credit card terminal to your tablet. If they don't have one follow the server to their terminal and stay and watch them process it. Your concerns are not unfounded but there are solutions to most of the issues and he quality of tLife in Puerto Vallarta Mexico is worth the trade off for minor inconvenience. Thanks for your comments and keep watching my videos.

Are there firecrackers going off a lot in Puerta Vallarta? I am in Oaxaca City now, and firecrackers go off in the middle of the night. I plan on visiting Costa Rice while I maintain my apartment in Mexico. My lease is up in February, and I want to move to a beach town. I am thinking aout Puerta Vallarta.

Hi Thomas. I do believe you can find perhaps a studio for that amount. You need to Google rentals in Puerto Vallarta and spend some time searching. I found this one yesterday www.mordidas.com/studio-apartment-for-rent/ So they are out there. With a bit of time and perseverance you should find something. Also look on Facebook as there are many Puerto Vallarta Rentals group pages there. Good luck!

Hi. Buenos Aires is a more Mexican neighborhood as opposed to an expat neighborhood like Zona Romantica. it is a small barrio to the east of the tunnel and on the hill behind ZR. So you can walk down to the beach. It is a pretty laid back, quiet neighborhood. Definitely worth exploring.

I want to know how much is the electricity bill in PV?

@LIVINGINPUERTOVALLARTAMEXICO

10 ай бұрын

Your electricity bill would depend on your usage. If you run A/C units all day your bill would be a lot higher .than if you only ran them at certain times. CFE is the Mexican Electricity company and they have three tiers of billing. The more you use the higher your rate per Kwh (kilowats per hour) of usage goes up. Here are their rates of usage.. Basico: up to the first 250 Kwh the price is 0.713 pesos Intermedio: from 250-450 kwh the price is 0.838 pesod Excedente: over 450 kwh the price is 2.862 pesos Hope this helps.

Like most realtors l , and used car salesmen, you never said the prices. Otherwise a good video

Hi Douglas. Thank you for your comment. I like to think that my channel and my videos are more than an advertisement for my real estate business but rather offer value and valuable information on moving to and living in Puerto Vallarta. That’s what this video is all about. Living in Puerto Vallarta would involve renting or buying a home here so I did put some information about the advantages of buying in Puerto Vallarta towards the end of the video. This was not meant to be a video about properties, their attributes or their prices. There are other videos here on my channel that are specifically about certain properties with their prices and also videos on certain neighborhoods that discuss the attributes of the neighborhood and the available condos and prices in that neighborhood. If you would like information on property prices in the different neighborhoods I would be more than happy to provide those for you. Please subscribe to my channel and you will see many upcoming videos on properties available in the different areas of Puerto Vallarta in which prices will be posted. To offer videos with value rather than just advertise my listings is my main goal. Cheers.

this Expat term is sure getting annoying, if you leaving in PV you are an immigrant

@LIVINGINPUERTOVALLARTAMEXICO

10 ай бұрын

Frankly, I believe there are a lot more serious issues in the world right not to worry and be annoyed about. However, the Cambridge Dictionary defines an expat as: “someone who does not live in their own country” It defines an immigrant as: “a person who has come to a different country in order to live there permanently” So, we can see that both terms can be applied to someone that has moved out of their native country to live abroad.
