While minimum condo prices hovered around $89,900 in 2015, they have slightly increased to $84,200 in 2023.

In the past, developers used to create small living spaces. Such as 11 square meter nano studios, to maximize the use of space and increase profit margins. However, such small units are not as commonly found anymore. As living standards have improved and people have become more demanding. The trend has shifted towards larger and more spacious accommodations. In 2015, the smallest units available were rarely smaller than 51 square meters, and since then, the trend towards larger accommodations has continued.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_22616\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-22616\" style=\"width: 658px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.topmexicorealestate.com\/tulum-real-estate\/b-listado-tulum.php\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-22616\" src=\"https:\/\/www.topmexicorealestate.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Screenshot-2024-01-04-22.12.41.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"658\" height=\"364\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.topmexicorealestate.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Screenshot-2024-01-04-22.12.41.png 813w, https:\/\/www.topmexicorealestate.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Screenshot-2024-01-04-22.12.41-300x166.png 300w, https:\/\/www.topmexicorealestate.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Screenshot-2024-01-04-22.12.41-768x425.png 768w, https:\/\/www.topmexicorealestate.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Screenshot-2024-01-04-22.12.41-630x350.png 630w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 658px) 100vw, 658px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-22616\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Click on the image to explore Tulum listings!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Nowadays, people prefer more space and openness in their living areas.
