Rent is so cheap in Mexico...no need to buy. Look for long term rentals on Airbnb. Recently found an entire house in Puerto Vallarta for $950 a month and a decent 2 bedroom apt with kitchen and aircon for $450 a month.

I was able to finally make it down to PV from Aug 14-28/2021 and see it all for myself including the surrounding towns and interior. It was great to drive through all of these neighborhoods and get a good scouting report. I did and saw so much and it ended up being better than what I expected. My mind is made up and God willing, I will be back for good within 1-2 years max. 🙏🙏🙏

The 2BR 2BA for $639K in Amapal was stunning. At best that would get you a studio to maybe a 1BR (unfurnished) in NYC where I live. And the rooftop he showed you at the end I saw in a House Hunters International episode when he showed it to some buyers. Really beautiful.

Great video. Thank you. Contemplating a move to Mexico in the future.

I’m renting a condo in a small building up on a huge hill. A 2 bedroom 2 bath with balcony full ocean view with city below. Also ocean view from master bedroom. Rooftop dipping pool, gas bbq, washer, dryer, bathroom, outdoor kitchen and bar. Incredible view of the bay, four flights up. 5 December area on a hill close to Leys market. ALL FOR 700/MONTH!!!!! A BARGAIN!!!! Electric is extra.

Definitely get in touch with Taniel. He knows the area really well and more importantly, will take care of you and make sure you get what you want and can afford.

Very informative video's put units are way to expensive, this is basically for millionaires. Any suggestions on any channel that can show and make recommendations for budget constrained seniors on a pension ?

Great video! Thanks for posting. He knows his stuff.

FYI Bill Gates is selling villas here in Punta de Mita. Four Seasons to be exact. 25 million usd. Funny how many people think the prices are going to be low. Beachfront is the most expensive real estate in the world, it does not matter what country its in. Location location location. Buying a condo in Mexico city downtown is like buying a condo in New York downtown. Same price tags. The best way to do it, is using your equity with low interest rates, to buy a second home or property in Mexico. Hopefully the buy is a good money maker and the property will pay for itself. Although it is a great investment, buyers always buy for the fun. lol

I loved the 2BR/2BA condo in Amapas (the place with the “green pool” that Riso fell in love with as well). I’m wondering what the monthly rent would be on a condo like that, if one is interested in renting as opposed to purchasing?

Entertaining and informative-love this video specifically. The Avalon is unbelievably gorgeous and Taniel would be the go to agent when we are ready to buy.

If you are considered a resident of Mexico, then you are going to be taxed on your worldwide income, ranging progressively from 1.92% - 35% depending on income level, regardless of your nationality or where the income was earned. On top of your obligation to file and pay US taxes, Mexico has income taxes of its own. For 2020, the national income rates for resident expats are as follows: Earnings in Pesos Rate Applicable to Income Level (%) 0 - 125,900: Exempt 125,900 - 1,000,000: 15% 1,000,000 and above: 30% Expatriates also pay local taxes to their state in Mexico. These rates are different in each state and generally range from 1% to 3%. Capital Gains Tax in Mexico If you are a resident, capital gains apply to worldwide income. Currently, the rate is 25% on the gross amount of the transaction or 30% of the total capital gain. For expatriates, the capital gains tax will depend on the tax cost basis, the type of asset to be liquidated and the sale price.

Thank you .

It looks nice but very expensive, my 3 bedroom condo in chicago was only 250000. Like less the half

Anyone told you that you look like the VP some?

I love Puerto Vallarta, so don't think I am anti PV or unduly negative One or more of the drug and human trafficking cartels have moved into Nayarit, which is not far from PV. I was surprised to read about it just a few weeks ago, since I loved driving to Tepic and viewing the Huichol/Cora indian arts. I hope enough of the cartel's families live in PV so it will not feel the effects which are plaguing some other parts of Mexico.

Are your videos designed to cater to retirees and expats with money? Cuz a lot of us want to come down and live simply and cheaply and these homes aren’t that. Kind of him to show you around but not practical for most of us.

Gringo real estate agents aren't going to make much money off selling places in that range, so no offense to them but avoid them. The exception might be if they are genuinely sympathetic to your budget and have some knowledge to share that isn't aimed at making themselves a buck. It would help tremendously to Speak Spanish and to actually be in the area you'd like to buy in to find a good place for that kind of money. It might also make sense to get some cheap land and get a middle class Mexican style place built. The average home price in all of Mexico is somewhere around 50K so it's definitely doable if you don't mind a place that is more "plain" than what you find in videos aimed at expats. You will get a lot more bang for your buck in small towns or cities that aren't geared towards expats like Puerto Vallarta, Ajijic, San Miguel de Allende and Los Cabos. For example, instead of living in Puerto Vallarta you might look in around a smaller town nearby like San Francisco ("San Pancho") that's still charming with a great beach but off the typical expat retiree radar.
