In the past five months Tulum real estate owners, the hotel industry, service providers, travelers, people who live year round in the Riviera Maya region and visitors have all noticed a big change The Mayan Riviera highway has been improved considerably with an expansion to 4 lanes and overpasses in Puerto Aventuras, Akumal, Bahia Principe resort, Chemuyil and Xel-ha Many of these bridges are nearly 90% in completion and should be ready in a matter of weeks.
People who have not been in the region lately will have a pleasent surprise to find their driving time from Playa de Carmen to Tulum be reduced by at least 20 minutes NO “topes”! Topes are speed bumps and are very common on the roads throughtout all of Mexico Intersections can represent very dangerous situations on any highway so the construction of these new bridges along this Mexican Caribbean coastal highway has been welcomed by many communities in the region Car and pedestrian accidents have already seen immediate improvements as these incidences have been reduced drastically in only a few months.
On a separate note,the southbound section is being covered with an asphalt layer to prevent sliding when wet and therefore making it safer Besides reducing the number of accidents the new coat on the road extends the life of the highway Hopefully the same treatment will apply to the Northbound
The reduced travel time and accessibility are improving property values all along the region but more so in Tulum This small town of on the southern edge of the riviera maya is poised to boom when the market gains confidence again Beautiful beaches, pyramids and cultural history, international visitors, a major airport on the planning board and government investment into the future growth You would expect to see hundreds of condos, single family homes, golf courses and shopping centers to bring the attention of the Mexico infrastructure investors But no, the inventory is extremely low Buyers today need to venture out a little, risk their real estate purchases in areas that are far from the Tulum beachfront property options, in neighborhoods where homes have no restrictions or control on the quality or style of structures that might be constructed next to your investmentOn the other hand, there is one new project which is attracting attention for the points mentioned above If you can’t find condos on the beach, then people always search for properties to be as close as possible and within walking distance Aldea Zama in Tulum is stacking up points on various factors that make your investment create positive returns here in the Mexico real estate market such as; Low inventory, little competition, strong regional infrasture investment, beautiful beaches, easy accesibility
These five bridges were built in a very short time span in 2009.TheHighway 307 from Cancun to Chetumal will be completed in 2010.Most of you have seen Playa del Carmen break records as the fastest growing community in Latin America Would you bet that Tulum is going to repeat Is Aldea Zama in the right place at the right time
