If you are thinking about thinking about buying a Puerto Vallarta Condo, and making the unique combination of traditional charm, beautiful beachfront and modern comfort of this city your new home, you probably have an idea of what you want your lifestyle to be like. But now begins the work – how to search for that right property.
A good place to start is by getting to know what Puerto Vallarta offers. There are many neighborhoods, both established areas that have been favorites for a few decades now, since the time when Puerto Vallarta was first discovered by the American expat community, and their are newer communities offering a slightly different take on this city's unique lifestyle.
One community which offers a good choice of Puerto Vallarta luxury condos is Amapas, which is located on the hillside, only a short walk from downtown. This community is becoming one of the top favorites for Americans and Canadians currently buying properties. Also a short walk from downtown are the up-and-coming communities of Alta Vista and 5 de Deciembre. In both of these communities new condos with beautiful town and bay views are available starting at very accessible prices, sometimes less than $200,000. Other options include a fixer-upper home; while these can be bought for slightly more than the starting price for a condo, after a renovation, the home could be worth closer to $500,000.
Further away from downtown, about a 30 minute drive, Nuevo Vallarta is already popular for condos in the golf course communities, starting around $250,000. Puerto Vallarta beachfront condos in this area start around $450,000. Besides the championship golf course, there is also a shopping mall. Nearby in Marina Vallarta there are many more shopping options.
Puerto Vallarta includes many other communities and developments, offering excellent options for a broad range of prices and lifestyles. If you haven't visited Puerto Vallarta yet, take a look at some online Puerto Vallarta listings and become familiar with a few properties that catch your interest. Many listings include a Google map, so you can locate the property and get a feel for which neighborhoods are catching your interest as well. TOPMexicoRealEstate.com has also integrated Google Street View into its listings, so you can actually take a self-guided virtual tour of the neighborhood.
Once you have a feel for what you like, contact a knowledgeable, experienced agent to present you with more options and guide you through the purchasing process.
