Why Puerto Morelos is Mexico’s Best-Kept Real Estate Secret
Jun 09, 2023Are you looking for the perfect real estate investment in Mexico? Have you looked at properties in Playa del Carmen, Cancun, and Akumal, but they just don’t feel like the right fit?
Nestled conveniently in the heart of the Riviera Maya, Puerto Morelos is a magical little town that has it all: incredible real estate opportunities, beautiful beaches, a welcoming community, and more. This blog will share why Puerto Morelos is Mexico’s best-kept real estate secret.
The Perfect Location
When it comes to real estate, you have undoubtedly heard it before: location, location, location. Puerto Morelos is 15 minutes south of the Cancun International Airport, which makes it the logical choice if you’re looking for easy, convenient travel for yourself or your Airbnb guests. But it’s not just the airport that makes the location of Puerto Morelos perfect. It is within 30 minutes of Playa del Carmen, an hour from Tulum and the islands of Cozumel and Isla Mujeres. It is truly your ideal home base for exploring everything the Caribbean offers.
A Truly Smart Investment
Puerto Morelos’ real estate capital gains (property value increase over time) jumped by 12.4% in 2022. And if you are utilizing your property for rentals, you can expect a return on your investment of at least 8-10%. Simply put, purchase now, and you will be making profits later.
The Riviera Maya Real Estate accounts for 70% of foreign investments in Mexico. And Mexico is poised to become the fifth-largest economy in the world by 2050. Riviera Maya real estate will continue to be a safe, secure investment that doesn't fluctuate quickly like the stock market.
Affordability
You can purchase real estate in Puerto Morelos within a few miles of the beach for less than 100K USD. That price disappeared years ago in most desirable beach locations. Also, the closing costs, property taxes, HOA fees, and annual expenses are very reasonable.
You will pay less for groceries, medications, and other services in Mexico. If you invest in Puerto Morelos real estate, you will have a better life for half the price. Money saved on living expenses can go towards enjoying all the good things Puerto Morelos and the surrounding area has to offer!
Quality of life
Take it from the many people who have already invested in the area: If you purchase real estate in Puerto Morelos, you won’t just have a piece of property in Mexico; you will have a place you can call “home.” Unlike some major towns in the area, the charming town has a sense of community and connection.
Once you stroll along the oceanfront square, you may fall in love and never want to leave.
The colorful fishing boats along the shore testify to the fact that this is a tranquil fishing community. The main fishing pier and leaning lighthouse are the town's icons, often photographed. You will find them featured in artwork and souvenirs.
You also can find everything you need and want within the city limits. There are grocery stores, pharmacies, doctors, hardware stores, a DHL office, and more in Puerto Morelos.
The Beach
Puerto Morelos is a beach and ocean lover’s paradise. The long, wide beautiful white sand beach is dotted with palm trees and just enough beach clubs and massage huts to while away an afternoon without feeling too congested or crowded. There is ample free parking just steps from the beach so that you won’t be lugging your beach gear for miles.
