Have you visited a Mexico retirement community which you feel could be the place of your dreams? Maybe Puerto Vallarta on the Pacific coast, maybe Cancun on the Yucatan Peninsula? If you have imagined your dream home, but know that it's outside of your budget, one solution is to plan ahead, buy a plot of land and build that home exactly the way you like it.
While land in both of these locations is best bought of the beachfront (directly on the beachfront the demand is high, supply is limited, and so prices are quite high,) only a short drive away from the beach you can buy a decent sized lot for a reasonable price.
Puerto Vallarta land, for example, can be found for as little as $75,000 USD. Whether up on a hillside overlooking the bay, or in a newly developing community, lots for low prices can be found within walking distance to many services. In new areas, many new services may be on their way by the time retirement rolls around for you.
Cancun land in good locations is a little less common, but is nevertheless available for good prices. One example is newer developments just outside of town – towards the airport, or Isla Mujeres on the other side. Prices are reasonable, and again, while many new services are appearing in these areas, a short drive will bring you to the large malls of the hotel zone, and the convenient shopping of downtown.
In either area, a spacious home, well constructed with a custom design, can be built around the $100,000 mark. For around $200,000 USD (after some other little expenses) you can be ready for retirement in the house of your dreams.
If you are looking for a lower price range, other areas that are just beginning to grow as top tourist destinations offer even lower prices on good lots. Contact an experienced, qualified agent to help you find the area and the property where you can build the home you want for retirement.
