Within the Riviera Maya, the current hotspot is Tulum.High prices and existing development are found at the northern end of the Riviera Maya lower prices, lesser development, and greater opportunity lie to the south….The Riviera Maya provides more than 60% of Mexico’s tourist income….Cancun’s international airport, less than 1.5 hours away, provides easy access to the United States and Canada….The climate is warm and tropical all year….It boasts over 125 miles of beautiful Caribbean beaches….Here are a few things to remember about the Riviera Maya: Today, the census counts more than 18,000 people there. Just a few years ago, the town consisted of a handful cabins and a few fishing shacks. Tulum is squarely in this Path of Progress.
This classic Path of Progress investment scenario has been good to early investors who purchased in the path from Cancun through Playa del Carmen and beyond. As it exploded into a city of more than 700,000, the swath of development extended southward toward Playa del Carmen, transforming it from a fishing village to a town of more than 150,000 today.įrom there, development continues to creep southward as developers and pioneers seek unspoiled beaches and towns that remain convenient to Cancun’s international airport. But equally important to the investor is the Path of Progress angle.Ĭancun-one of Mexico’s top two resorts-began in 1974 as a tourism project on a small fishing island. The beaches in this area are some of the world’s most beautiful. That entire area is growing as both a tourist and an expat residential destination. The attraction of the location is the nearby Riviera Maya, specifically south of Playa del Carmen. It’s with that track record that the developer decided to do a second project nearby. The first project the developer did (called Los Arboles Tulum) was a popular sell and already has a number of homes built…and some of the early lot buyers there have resold for a profit. With prices starting at less than US$37,000 (with the launch discount), the capital you need to buy into this opportunity is low.
Some people are buying with a plan to build a house while others see the opportunity to get in early at such a discount as a good investment play. At least seven of those lots have been taken as of this writing. The developer is offering a 25% discount for the first 15 cash buyers. The lots are large tracts of old-growth jungle with very low development density-less than 15% of the property.
Los Arboles Cobá is a sustainable, off-the-grid community that nonetheless offers amenities like high-speed Internet, phones, and satellite TV. This new development is Los Arboles Cobá and is 20 minutes inland from Tulum in the heart of Mayan country. One developer I’ve known for some years on the Yucatan peninsula of Mexico has launched a second sustainable, off-the-grid community (this after completing a similar and successful first project). Taking yourself off the grid is particularly appealing in a country where the mains electricity isn’t reliable. Living off-grid attracts two different kinds of personalities-those who want to do their part to save the planet and reduce their carbon footprints…and those who want the security of not having to rely on “the system” for their utilities.
