Let me make  some important comments on the subject and hopefully give you a better idea of  what\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s going on here in Mexico, and in Playa del Carmen in particular.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" style=\"margin-left: 10px; margin-right: 10px;\" title=\"Playa del Carmen real estate\" src=\"http:\/\/i255.photobucket.com\/albums\/hh138\/beatlo\/Playa%20del%20Carmen%20Condos\/Xamanha\/view1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"320\" height=\"208\" \/>The biggest and most important point,  especially for our US clients, is that most all real estate purchases in the  past have been made for CASH.\u00c2\u00a0 No  mortgages, and therefore no defaults and virtually no foreclosures.\u00c2\u00a0 That is why prices here have continued  to be relatively stable here.  But, I  would say the market here is soft, primarily due to the worldwide cautiousness  that has everyone being a bit careful with their money these days.\u00c2\u00a0 We don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t see the aggressiveness of a  couple years ago when property was selling like the proverbial \u00e2\u20ac\u0153hot cakes\u00e2\u20ac\u009d.\u00c2\u00a0 Playa del Carmen is still one of the  fastest growing areas in Mexico, if not in all of Latin America.\u00c2\u00a0 I assume most of you have been here and  can appreciate the many reasons why.\u00c2\u00a0  As for a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.topmexicorealestate.com\/retire.php\" target=\"_blank\">Mexico retirement<\/a> option, it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a lovely small beach town with one of nicest beaches anywhere.\u00c2\u00a0 Small enough to pretty much walk  everywhere.\u00c2\u00a0 It has a wonderful mix  of local life along with the great shops and restaurants of a tourist town\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6.the  best of both worlds.\u00c2\u00a0 It was just  listed as one of the safest towns in all of Mexico.\u00c2\u00a0 It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s friendly and hospitable and of  course, the cost of living is so much cheaper that where you might be  living.  But yes,  there are some really great deals right now\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6some real bargains on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.topmexicorealestate.com\/playadelcarmen-real-estate\/oceanfront-playadelcarmen.php\" target=\"_blank\">Playa del Carmen beachfront for sale<\/a>.\u00c2\u00a0 And of course, nobody knows what the  future hold for prices\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6my crystal ball is a bit fuzzy as always.\u00c2\u00a0 We won\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t know if now is the best time to  buy until later when we can look back at current prices. There are some urgent  sellers who need to sell, whether because of lifestyle changes, death, or  perhaps overextended financially.\u00c2\u00a0  There are always bargains to be had for all type of reasons.\u00c2\u00a0 The sellers know it is not a robust  market now and some, not all, are offering great deals as a result.    I guess  that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s where we come in.\u00c2\u00a0 Use us to  help find you the best possible deal.\u00c2\u00a0  The more information you give us, the better we can help.\u00c2\u00a0 The location, the style, the size and of  course, you budget.\u00c2\u00a0 Then we can go  to work for you representing you to find the best deals and best options that  fit your idea of your own personal home in Mexico.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Doug Morgan <\/strong><\/em> 512-879-6546 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.topmexicorealestate.com\/\"><span style=\"color: #0000c0;\">www.<\/span><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">TOP<\/span><span style=\"color: #0000c0;\">mexicorealestate.com<\/span><\/a> <em><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">THE <\/span>TOP <\/strong><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Mexico Real Estate <strong>NETWORK<\/strong>; \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Mexico\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s leading specialists for finding and purchasing Mexican properties safely !\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is going on with the Playa del Carmen real estate market and prices?\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 This is an often asked question by our clients who are considering purchasing real estate in Mexico, and rightly so.\u00c2\u00a0 Are real estate prices going up, dropping as in the US, or holding their own?\u00c2\u00a0 \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Is this the time\u00c2\u00a0 to buy [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":30,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[135,682,4,70,714],"tags":[1526,225],"class_list":{"0":"post-4033","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-living-in-mexico","7":"category-mexico-cost-of-living-mexico-retirement","8":"category-mexico-retirement","9":"category-playa-del-carmen-real-estate","10":"category-top-real-estate-deals","11":"tag-playa-del-carmen-real-estate","12":"tag-playa-del-carmen-real-estate-for-sale","13":"entry"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.topmexicorealestate.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4033","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.topmexicorealestate.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.topmexicorealestate.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.topmexicorealestate.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/30"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.topmexicorealestate.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4033"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.topmexicorealestate.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4033\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4039,"href":"https:\/\/www.topmexicorealestate.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4033\/revisions\/4039"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.topmexicorealestate.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4033"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.topmexicorealestate.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4033"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.topmexicorealestate.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4033"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
