It is a huge catalyst that is not being considered by mainstream forecasters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"in-a-world-of-natural-resources-supply-shortages-mexico-is-a-prime-producer\">In a world of natural resources supply shortages, Mexico is a prime producer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This should greatly bolster Mexico\u2019s current account deficit thanks to exports, and render Mexican industry more competitive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mexico is flush with natural resources. It is the world\u2019s biggest silver producer and a top 10 miner of gold and copper, as well as lead and zinc. It is also trying to develop its energy-transition Lithium deposits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Importantly, in spite of government efforts to increase environmental and regulatory checks &amp; balances on mining operations, Mexico is the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/orocoresourcecorp.com\/investors\/why-invest\/mining-in-mexico\/\">4th biggest recipient<\/a>&nbsp;of mining foreign direct investment (FDI) in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mexico\u2019s energy policy is a mixed bag. It is a net crude oil exporter, but net importer of refined petroleum<a href=\"https:\/\/www.eia.gov\/international\/analysis\/country\/MEX\">&nbsp;products, and a net importer of natural gas<\/a>, though it has substantial reserves. It is the world\u2019s&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.trade.gov\/country-commercial-guides\/mexico-oil-and-gas\">13th largest oil producer and has the world\u2019s sixth-largest technically recoverable shale gas resources<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For many years the oil &amp; gas industry was not prioritized, was nor incentivized to explore, and the large state-owned company&nbsp;<strong>PEMEX<\/strong>&nbsp;was used for political gain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The government is now trying to heavily encourage oil &amp; gas exploration. This is undoubtedly the right decision, but it will take time for results to be visible. The current energy crisis will absolutely be a catalyst for faster action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But as often in its history, Mexico is also good at shooting itself in the foot. The government has been talking of&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.mining.com\/mexicos-shock-new-mining-law-hurts-juniors-most\/\">nationalization of some natural resources<\/a>, etc. Again, the headlines are scarier than the actual laws being passed, but it is nevertheless a net negative to be implementing such measures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Overall, I believe that reshoring will be much more of a net positive than the negative elements linked to mining. I expect foreign direct investment to continue to be very strong in Mexico.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"mexico-has-an-economy-that-will-muddle-along-but-with-pockets-of-excellence\">Mexico has an economy that will muddle along, but with pockets of excellence<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I believe that Playa del Carmen and Tulum are two such areas of excellence. I discussed it a lot in my other articles, but after having spent two weeks here in Puerto Vallarta it is clear that Puerto Vallarta and its coast are the same. But before digging into the driving forces, I must say a&nbsp;<strong>few words on the mortgage market<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The mortgage market in Mexico is primarily for homeowners who live in their homes, rather than investment properties as the rates are really high (<a href=\"https:\/\/countryeconomy.com\/key-rates\/mexico\">almost 9% and going up<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The advantage of investing in a market with a lot of leverage is that when times are good real estate values goes up a lot, but when times are bad, they descend with a vengeance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a core advantage of making a real estate investment in Puerto Vallarta these days \u2013 prices are less likely to go down than in&nbsp;<strong>Phoenix, Vancouver, or Los Angeles<\/strong>. Both locals and foreigners who invest in this market are mostly cash investors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"however-prices-are-already-relatively-high\">However prices are already relatively high<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Puerto Vallarta is by no means cheap<\/strong>&nbsp;if you want to buy an interesting apartment in one of the walkable areas. It\u2019s more expensive than Mexico City, and together with Cancun, Playa del Carmen and Tulum, is the second most expensive area in Latin America after Punta del Este in Uruguay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But unlike these other Latin American cities, prices are much more heavily linked to the North American market, as this is the main target market, as well as Mexican industrialists who are themselves very tied to the American economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So yes, absolute prices are expensive relative to the region, but it\u2019s a completely different market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Overall, I don\u2019t feel that Puerto Vallarta is a market offering substantial capital gains. I rather see it as great diversification, a lifestyle play and a residency play in some cases. The cash flow from real estate is generally quite poor in Puerto Vallarta, but it is decent enough for people who want to spend time there, and rent out for the rest of the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I also believe that structurally, this market has less downside than most Western markets due to its cash nature, and its many catalysts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"4-key-catalysts-that-make-a-real-estate-investment-in-puerto-vallarta-interesting\">4 key catalysts that make a real estate investment in Puerto Vallarta interesting<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"1-staggering-development-in-puerto-vallarta\">1.

In 2022 it was the<strong>&nbsp;Mexican airport with the most passenger growth versus 2021<\/strong>. Passenger numbers&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/List_of_the_busiest_airports_in_Mexico\">grew a staggering 51%<\/a>, so much so that the airport is expanding. The main terminal is being renovated and a second terminal is being built. This will increase capacity, comfort, and drive even more volume of tourists and nomads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new terminal is expected to open&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/vallartalifestyles.com\/announcing-progress-on-terminal-2-at-pv-international-airport\/\">its doors in late 2024<\/a>, and is set to become Latin America\u2019s first net-zero airport. The net-zero element is interesting in the sense that the city seems to be targeting higher-end tourism, which is more sensitive to such matters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the meantime, Puerto Vallarta airport storms ahead with&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/mexicodailypost.com\/2023\/05\/19\/the-puerto-vallarta-international-airport-registers-a-total-642600-passengers-in-one-month\/\">Q1 2023 passenger numbers up 25%<\/a>&nbsp;against an already eye-popping 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"new-highway-to-guadalajara\">New highway to Guadalajara<em>Huge catalyst<\/em><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"853\" src=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image012.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20543\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image012.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image012-300x250.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image012-768x640.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The government has been working&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/mexiconewsdaily.com\/travel\/new-highway-section-from-guadalajara-to-puerto-vallarta\/\">on this highway for many years<\/a>. It\u2019s a massive catalyst from a local tourism point of view. Few foreigners are aware, but Guadalajara metro has a population&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.macrotrends.net\/cities\/21841\/guadalajara\/population\">of 5.5 million people<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These people previously had to travel over 5 hours each way.&nbsp;<strong>Soon they will be able to get to Puerto Vallarta in 3 hours or so<\/strong>. This will be a healthy boost for weekend tourism. As Mexico continues to develop thanks to re-shoring activity, the new Mexican middle and upper classes will be happy to go to the beach for the weekend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Though this is bullish for Puerto Vallarta in general, it is even more so for small beach towns near the highway on the way to Guadalajara. More on this topic below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"2-digital-nomads\">2. Digital Nomads<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The reality is that one short flight away from Puerto Vallarta is a massive market of high-earning Americans who simultaneously realized a few things:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"1\">\n<li><strong>They can work almost entirely remotely<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>They can work from abroad<\/strong>, thus leaving behind an increasingly toxic environment.

North American political and cost-of-living refugees<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The influx has already started and is bound to grow. I am not referring to digital nomads who move here for a few months before bouncing off somewhere else. I am referring to people, of all political stripes and ages, who move down to Mexico full-time. They sometimes have online businesses, but often they still have businesses back home which someone manages for them, they are retired, they live off passive income, or start actual businesses in Mexico.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have met a few types of such people:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"liberals-who-fear-a-right-wing-dictatorship-in-america\">Liberals who fear a right-wing dictatorship in America<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019ve met a few of those. They fear that they are gradually losing their rights in America (recent supreme court rulings) and that the country is just waiting for a radical turn to the right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"conservatives-who-fear-a-left-wing-dictatorship-in-america\">Conservatives who fear a left-wing dictatorship in America<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>They feel the federal government is after them, that the IRS will persecute people, and that their rights and freedom of speech are under attack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"apolitical-americans-who-are-sick-of-all-the-politics-in-america\">Apolitical Americans who are sick of all the politics in America<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>They just want to live in peace away from all the nonsense.

There aren\u2019t many Europeans in Puerto Vallarta. For example many exchange offices will not even display Euro conversion rates as an option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image013.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20544\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image013.jpg 768w, https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image013-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><em>No \u20ac to be seen<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cost of Living refugees<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>As inflation eats away at people\u2019s savings in Western Europe and North America, and as the healthcare systems gradually fall into decay (Europe and Canada) or become too expensive (America), many people will move down South where the cost of living is lower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Granted, Puerto Vallarta is not the cheapest destination in Mexico, let alone in Latin America. But it is conveniently located, English is relatively widely spoken, and it is nevertheless affordable and comfortable. We can expect tens of millions of such Westerners to leave the West in the coming decades. Puerto Vallarta will attract many North Americans, especially as&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/thewanderinginvestor.com\/services\/residency-and-citizenship-by-investment\/how-to-obtain-residency-in-mexico\/\">obtaining residency in Mexico<\/a>&nbsp;is easy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Investors must understand that not all such people are \u201ccheap\u201d.

The walkability of the city is great, not just on the famous boardwalk but in town as well. And as soon as you want to venture farther way, there are cycle lanes on the main arteries as well as a bus system that is easy to understand and use. It\u2019s cheap, and you also see wealthy Gringos taking the bus because of how convenient it is.&nbsp;<strong>This contrasts with Playa del Carmen and Tulum where wealthy Gringos do not use the local bus network<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you live in the center or near the center, Puerto Vallarta is very walkable. You can live a bit of a village life without having to buy or rent a car. In an age of inflation and high gas prices, this makes a difference. Also, for people who just want to stay for a few months, or plan to stay for a week on holidays, walkability is a key factor to avoid hassling with taxis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Going to the nearby towns is easy as well with buses departing on a hourly basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"5-lgbtq\">5. LGBTQ<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This again is a topic that gets people politically heated. Just looking at facts, whether you like it or not, the US and Canada are experimenting big shifts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gen Z self identifies at a rate of&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/lifestyle\/2022\/02\/17\/adults-identifying-lgbt-gen-z\/\">20% as LGBTQ<\/a>, versus less than 5% of boomers. This is a generational sea change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Puerto Vallarta, and more specifically the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelpulse.com\/News\/Destinations\/Zona-Romantica-Puerto-Vallarta-s-Welcoming-Gay-District\">Zona Romantica<\/a>, is a world-renowned gay destination. This is a big growth market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, there is space for everyone. Venture outside of that area and you\u2019ll meet plenty of Canadian families who fled what they perceive as&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theglobeandmail.com\/canada\/article-schools-become-targets-for-backlash-against-lgbtq-rights\/\">LGBTQ ideology<\/a>&nbsp;in the school system in Canada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mexico is a land of contrasts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"6-safety\">6. Safety<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Puerto Vallarta feels very safe. Unlike in some other Latin American destinations, I wasn\u2019t looking over my shoulders when walking around at night, and&nbsp;<strong>felt comfortable going out with an expensive phone without sticking it into my boxers<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mexicans feel the same about Puerto Vallarta. They like its reputation for safety. I remember meeting a group of young Mexicans in their 20s from Mexico City. I asked them why they chose Puerto Vallarta for the weekend instead of Playa del Carmen. They replied that for Mexicans Puerto Vallarta is safer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Insightful, and very positive for the local element of the local real estate investment market in Puerto Vallarta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"why-i-did-not-mention-mainstream-tourism\">Why I did not mention mainstream tourism<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Tourism is obviously the number one target market for your real estate investment in Puerto Vallarta with millions of travelers landing at the Puerto Vallarta airport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, we must not ignore the macro environment. The reality is that we are entering a world of expensive energy, which will mean more expensive flights and squeezed real incomes due to surging inflation all over the Western world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This will not be without consequences. People that could once afford to go on vacation might not next year, or might go on vacation to Mexico for one week instead of two weeks. Such a macro environment is inevitably a net negative for tourism in most places in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This being said, domestic Mexican tourism is gaining in strength, especially with the highway being built, and there are these&nbsp;<strong>other catalysts that should help make up for a loss of organic tourism growth.<\/strong>&nbsp;The new infrastructure will attract people who would not have come, and all these digital nomads and refugees of various types will help fill the properties of real estate investors in Puerto Vallarta..<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In many cases tourism is a zero-sum game. A tourist has only X number of days to spend every year. You must remain attractive to stay ahead of the competing destinations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"in-which-region-of-puerto-vallarta-to-make-a-real-estate-investment\">In which region of Puerto Vallarta to make a real estate investment?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"making-a-property-investment-in-the-region\">Making a property investment in the region<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>First, let\u2019s start with the region, and we shall delve into the city and its neighborhoods a bit later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"962\" src=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image015.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20546\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image015.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image015-300x282.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image015-768x722.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Regional real estate investment heat map of Puerto Vallarta<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>I would totally ignore the coast south of Puerto Vallarta given that the regional development is more focused northward towards the highway and the expanding airport, two key drivers for the real estate market in Puerto Vallarta.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"marina-vallarta\">Marina Vallarta<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image016.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20547\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image016.jpg 640w, https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image016-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image017.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20548\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image017.jpg 640w, https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image017-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image018.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20549\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image018.jpg 640w, https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image018-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image019.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20550\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image019.jpg 640w, https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image019-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image020.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20551\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image020.jpg 640w, https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image020-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This neighborhood is very comfortable for living.

It\u2019s essentially a large, gated community with hotels, malls, private clinics, private schools, and its own prime beach. The infrastructure is great, though you must have a car as it isn\u2019t pedestrian friendly in the sense that it is very big.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In some respects it\u2019s a little kitsch (think fake Mayan pyramids), but in many ways&nbsp;<strong>it offers all the comforts of back home<\/strong>. You see Mexican, American, and Canadian flags everywhere. The supermarkets have imported products from back home. And it\u2019s very safe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I talked to a few expats here. They are quite different from expats in other parts of Puerto Vallarta in the sense that they seem to mingle a lot less with locals. For many it\u2019s just a great beach destination, with great weather, safety, and affordable help and food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a pure investment I would stay away from it as it is already rather built out. You\u2019re looking at easily $400 per square foot for new construction. I can find better value with more upside potential in other neighborhoods and nearby towns, with less HOA fees if I were to rent the property out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Having said this, it\u2019s a great lifestyle play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"bucerias-and-la-cruz\">Bucerias and La Cruz<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image033.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image033.jpg 640w, https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image033-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image034.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20561\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image034.jpg 640w, https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image034-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image035.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20562\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image035.jpg 640w, https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image035-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image036.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20563\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image036.jpg 640w, https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image036-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image037.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20565\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image037.jpg 640w, https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image037-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image038.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20566\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image038.jpg 640w, https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image038-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image039.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20567\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image039.jpg 640w, https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image039-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image040.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20568\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image040.jpg 640w, https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image040-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Growing area. There is still much space for construction. The infrastructure is absolutely not \u201cthere\u201d yet. Dirt roads, constructions sites, and the marina is not that appealing, nor are the boats premium. But this will change. The highway lays nearby and the airport is close so this area will definitely develop over time. I doubt the rental yields are very interesting for now, as living there without a car is not that appealing and many of the retirees and digital nomads would prefer to be somewhere livelier, but&nbsp;<strong>for capital gains this is probably not a bad play<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"punta-mita\">Punta Mita<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image041.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20569\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image041.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image041-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image041-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Sorry, you\u2019re late.&nbsp;<strong>Extremely expensive already<\/strong>.

For now, there are still barely any tourists and the beach is pristine. The tourism infrastructure is almost non-existent, but it feels quaint as a result. If you bought something here, finding a decent Airbnb manager would probably be a bit challenging. You\u2019d probably have to find a neighbor or one of the few expats living in town.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I believe that&nbsp;<strong>this village represents the best speculation and odds of strong capital appreciation<\/strong>. Development will inevitably arrive in this area, with the new highway being a big catalyst, as well as prices that went up significantly in Sayulita and San Pancho.

Due to the price of real estate though, it\u2019s hard to make high capitalization rates, and I don\u2019t think you\u2019ll be making amazing capital gains. The thesis here has already played out.

Why? Because cute cafes and restaurants keep popping up, and people \u201cin the know\u201d are increasingly going for dinner and drinks here. It\u2019s absolutely not on the tourist map, and is only really known by some people who live full-time in Puerto Vallarta. People living in the Centro and Zona Romantica now occasionally go to Versalles in the evening for dinner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s a trend, but it\u2019s still early in the game. The neighborhood doesn\u2019t look great yet, and there are a lot of mean looking buildings. This, combined with its relative proximity to the beach and airport makes it a stand-out from an upside point of view. This is&nbsp;<strong>my favorite spot to make a real estate investment in Puerto Vallarta<\/strong>&nbsp;together with Lazaro Cardenas<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"lazaro-cardenas\">Lazaro Cardenas<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image085.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20613\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image085.jpg 640w, https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image085-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"480\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image086.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20614\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image086.jpg 480w, https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image086-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image087.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20615\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image087.jpg 640w, https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image087-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image088.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20616\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image088.jpg 640w, https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image088-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image089.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20617\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image089.jpg 640w, https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image089-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image090.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20618\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image090.jpg 640w, https:\/\/mexpatrealtors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image090-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This area is one notch below Versalles.
