The New Generation of Buyers

In 2017, trends have changed from what they used to be. As a result, there’s a new generation looking to buy real estate: millennials. This new generation of buyers share very different habits as those from the baby boomers. However, both generations have one thing in common: they both love Playa del Carmen.

This destination has been selected by those who want to retire in Mexico. Nonetheless, we have noticed a change in our client’s profile; with the millennial market being among the most important.

Baby boomers that are looking to retire, usually choose big and tranquil properties, with large spaces to host their families and friends. However, millennials have very specific likes which differ from those of the baby boomers.

Why is Playa a good option for a millennial buyer?

Millennials are the generation born between the mid 80’s and late 90’s. They are interested in preserving the environment and also enjoy being social. Thus, Playa del Carmen is an ideal city for them to live. This town has a wide variety of places to socialize. The renowned 5th Avenue offers an enormous variety of restaurants with some of the best cuisines in the world. Also, you can find many bars and nightclubs to have an unforgettable night out.

On the other hand, Playa del Carmen has many theme parks to spend the day having fun surrounded by nature. Playa has plenty of associations and communities interested in educating people about the preservation of the natural resources of this region. Offering plenty of opportunities to participate in these activities.

Furthermore, when it comes to purchasing a new property, millennial’s decisions differ from those of their parents. First of all, this generation is more focused on finding a place close to downtown. Today, millennials want to be walking distance to town and to the hustle and bustle of the city.

Developments designed for the new generation of buyers

In Playa del Carmen there are many developments that seem to be perfectly designed for these new buyers. Areas such as Little Italy offer condos with modern inspiration, incredible amenities and, certainly, an ideal location. One of these concepts would be L Condos. This community is located in downtown Playa. Just two blocks away from 5th Avenue and just a short walk away from Mamita’s Beach.

With its modern and thoughtful design, nice amenities and carefully planned common areas, L Condos fulfills every millennial request. The amenities included in this development are a fitness center, an infinity pool with swim-up bar and sunbathing area.

Another difference between baby boomers and millennials is that the latter don’t have enough time, since they are busy working. Being so social oriented, they love spending their free time with family and friends. Developments such as L Condos allow this generation to have social gatherings in its common areas.

In the same way, the new generation of buyers prefer a move-in-ready home. They don’t have time for renovating a kitchen, a bedroom or a bathroom. They want a quick and easy move-in, even if it’s a small and minimalistic property. Millennials want to feel comfortable and happy whenever they come home. They don’t want big houses, since they usually mean more work and maintenance. These young professionals just don’t want to spend their time on these activities.

Playa del Carmen is a great option for any millennial in many ways. It is a city that offers several activities, jobs and a desirable lifestyle. Playa del Carmen offers developments that fulfill any millennial need. Developments such as L Condos, with a perfect location, appliances included and fantastic amenities are perfect for the new generation of buyers.
