Have you been considering Puerto Vallarta real estate? Personal motivations for buying a Mexico home in this beautiful city on the Pacific coast vary from retiring in one of the largest expat communities in Mexico to purely investment motivations; but these reasons tend to be among the top motivations for everyone who buys here.

1. Warm Weather, Beautiful Beaches

With a climate that averages around 70 degrees throughout the year, and wide beaches stretching out along the bay of Banderas for miles and miles, vacationers have been attracted to this area for decades on end now to enjoy this area, and so have many who have chosen to make Puerto Vallarta their second home. Whether you like deep sea fishing, or just a relaxing evening walk in the sand, the area's oceanfront will not leave you disappointed.

2. Great Expat Community

The lure of life on the beach has drawn about 50,000 Americans and Canadians to move to this city, with a large number of retirees, but also families and young couples in large numbers. You will get to know people from back home with similar interests, as well as find surprising friends you never expected. Along with the large number of tourists and expats have come many modern services, such as modern malls, English movie theaters, world-class hospitals, golf courses, marinas and more. There are also many clubs and organizations to be involved in.

3. Investment Potential

The excellent services, and the popularity of the area among expats means that property value has great potential for constant appreciation. The large tourists numbers mean that rental potential is also high. More so than with condos there are opportunities to buy well-built Puerto Vallarta homes that have been somewhat neglected at a low price, and restore them, increasing the value, and providing yourself with an excellent home.

4. Low Cost of Living

Compared to oceanfront communities in the U.S., the cost of goods, utilities, and leisure activities like restaurants or nature adventures are considerably lower. You will enjoy life more, and your savings will be healthier. While prices are a little higher than less popular parts of Mexico, Puerto Vallarta also offers many more services and activities (such as excellent hospitals, and good golf courses.) It's an ideal balance.

5. Life in a Culturally Rich City

One of the initial lures of Puerto Vallarta back in the 50's was the quaint, traditional Mexican village atmosphere, which can still be found in the old town center, where farmers show up on mules to sell their goods. Added to this is the history of Hollywood films and actor's romances here, which first brought large-scale attention to the original expat neighborhood. Whether interested in art, theater, history, or music, you will find it in Puerto Vallarta.

These are only 5 reasons, albeit good ones, and very common ones. If you need more, come visit, and start your search for your dream home in Paradise!
