What's the best kind of Playa del Carmen real estate or condo is right for you? This depends on a lot of factors, and is combination of your personal needs and tastes, and how the property itself and the surroundings contribute to your needs, as well as the property value. One of the charms of living in Mexico is the variety you have to choose from. To help you in your decision, consider the following points.

  

Focus on Your Key Issues

Think about what you really need for your lifestyle. If your agent presents you with an excellent Playa del Carmen condos for a good price that has the space you need, but it's in a gated community instead of downtown, give it some real consideration. On the other hand, if you need to be close to a school for your kids, make sure the properties you are considering have easy access to a good bilingual school (these are becoming increasingly more common in Mexico.)

Consider the Future of the Neighborhood

Looking at what a neighborhood is now just isn't enough. While even the world's most experienced experts never agree about predicting markets, observing some basic points about a neighborhood can help you decide if it's right for you or not.

  

Besides the basic influence items such as services, access, new development, and nearby homes being upgraded/improved have on property value, you also have to consider your personal needs. If you want a quiet, calm retirement, it would be best if new development are family and retirement-focused homes and some convenient shopping and dining. If you like nightlife, are their bars and clubs opening or being planned?
