4)Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â What are the normal steps to purchase real estate in Cancun?
The normal steps to find a great residence in Cancun is to ask yourself your greatest interest whether a location close to your children’s school in an upcoming neighborhood.  Or an oceanfront/lagoon front location close to the downtown area to have the best of both worlds.  Or finding a great rental property that you can use as a winter getaway plus a great additional income.
5)Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Is there financing available in Cancun?
Yes, financing is available for foreigners in Cancun with Banks such as Scotia Inverlat, Bancomer, HSBC. Plus mortgage companies with representation in the Riviera Maya that work with North American and European lenders authorized to provide loans to various nationalities.  Short term owner financing has become more prevalent depending on the seller as many of these will work with buyers to make it easier for the buyer to purchase while he may have to sell another property of his own to complete the payment here in Mexico.
6)Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Where are most Americans and Canadians purchasing in Cancun?
Previously most Americans and Canadians were primarily purchasing in the tourists zones. Although now many North Americans enjoy getting more involved with the local culture and atmosphere as well as finding a great location at a much more economical price with only a short distance to the beach when desired. Every year more and more foreigners are finding it easier to acquire property in Mexico and to enjoy the great benefits of a more tranquil lifestyle.
7)Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Why would I work with you versus another real estate agent in Cancun?
The main reason for wanting to work with me as your Real Estate Agent is knowledge and experience of the area combined with integrity and going the extra mile to make sure you find your Dream home or investment. My commitment to personal service and the ability to answer not just your Real Estate questions but unique questions only someone who has had the opportunity to live here for an extended period of time and understand the concerns and uncertainties of a first time buyer has in a foreign country.
