The Importance of Investing in Eco-Friendly Developments

Filed Under: Real Estate

Puerta Azul - Sustainable Construction

Quintana Roo has had a dramatic loss of mangrove over the past 20 years. Because of this, the demand for investing in eco-friendly developments is on the rise. People are deciding to invest in property that doesn’t damage the environment and is sustainable. In today’s eco-conscious world, green homes are a sound investment. Their advantages are more significant and will become greater as the years go on, in comparison to regular homes. Believe it or not, eco-friendly developments have a longer life expectancy. The materials used to build these projects are a lot more solid and tough. Using steel beams instead of wood provides a stronger frame for the development and there is no risk for the steel to rot or cause damage to the house.

Using Every Component of the Development

Eco-Friendly Developments

When building eco-friendly developments, architects and designers utilize every component of the home and make sure it is used to supreme effect. This also increases the value of your unit. Living in an eco-friendly home does not mean sacrificing luxury nor modern accessibilities. Think of how sustainable things such as solar energy is. The same applies to water. We are so dependent on municipal water when we could harvest rainwater, as well. You might think that this requires a large investment; however, that’s not always true. While a chunkier payment is required at first, eco-friendly developments are much cheaper to sustain and manage in the long-run.

The running costs are significantly less than traditional developments. When you transform any development and make it green, you save a substantial amount of money. Eco-friendly developments are a trend now. People still want to live in luxurious condos in prime locations, but they want to refrain from harming the environment so much. Every small change and action will result in big savings over the year.

Eco-Friendly Developments Are In

Also, eco-friendly developments are attracting and appealing to a lot of people. If you’re looking to invest in a vacation rental, owning an eco-friendly home means attracting a whole new market of eco-conscious travelers. When you walk into a house that is fully sustainable, it upcycles, and makes the best of natural resources, it really puts you in a different mindset. Today, developers are tackling this with projects such as Puerta Azul. The designers made sure the whole building was ecological on the outside, meaning that maintaining it is rather cheap due to the materials really upkeeping themselves. However, they didn’t sacrifice luxury, spaciousness or comfort.

Tulum is perhaps the eco-friendliest place in the Riviera Maya, attracting people from around the world. The loss of mangrove in Quintana Roo has taken a deep plunge over the past few years. Today, more than ever, we have to be conscious about how we keep developing real estate. Fortunately, Top Mexico Real Estate and its many partners are at the front of the movement to sustain our planet. Over the past 20 years, there has been a loss of 7,000 hectares of the ecosystem, due to tourism development. That is why we need to continue developing ecologically.

If you’re looking to invest in paradise without hurting the ecosystem, reach out to our expert team. We have partnered up with many eco-friendly developers who put the ecosystem before their profit.

And remember, at Top Mexico Real Estate…we make it happen!
