With the ever-increasing demand for housing in the Riviera Maya, property has been inching up in price over the last several years. People in search of moderately-priced accommodations that are also easy to maintain are starting to feel the effects of the rising cost. While the cost of living in Playa del Carmen is 50% lower than it is in main retirement destinations in the United States, and property is much cheaper, finding affordable housing in the region is starting to prove slightly more difficult today. With this in mind, there is still plenty of affordable housing in the Riviera Maya to overcome this obstacle. You can still be within minutes of the beach or Playa del Carmen’s famous 5th Avenue without spending a fortune. In fact, you can purchase a home for a lot less than you think.
