Oh and you KNOW it's gonna be. Right there in Margaritaville :thumbsup

Get out of the USA ASAP.


Good idea :Graucho

amazing.... a whole in the wall in my area costs double that... at that price i'll take 2 :thumbsup

You know it. That's the plan.

You're about to have some competition on it.

look great ... i'd jump on it .... you could always rent it out ....

Wow- that is beautiful.. too bad I'd never live in mexico, there are some beautiful things there.

amazing love to have a house like that :thumbsup

Oh, and... I have sort of a friend who owns an affiliate program lives in Mexico.

He said he's never moving back.

Besides, a US business operating outside of the US, it's my understanding the first $80,000.00/yr is non-taxable. :winkwink:

Ya :)

I'm thinking we'll just move there, but it does have a rental unit.

you all live in some expensive fucking towns....lost of money being wasted in this thread...

grab that $208k shit, pretty ok price, but there is cheaper and better stuff to be found in not so known areas

i would never leave that room

It's OK, there are plenty :)

My wife has about a hundred different pages bookmarked :)

Excatly.

I have friends in Guadalajara and really nice rentals and buys are very available if you're not just looking at what's being advertised to Americans.

Is there no windows in that place or is it just my eyes playing tricks on me?

thats sweet man

No freezer :(

Have to go to all the way to the kitchen to get Margaritas and Coronas :(

You come see me in Mexico Bob. I'll buy the Tequila ;)

Hey - I saw that house!

Seriously... I've been researching moving out of the US for years. Nothing to do with Bush/Kerry - we thought it would be fun, as our daughter will be graduating High School soon.

Financing is a bitch - mostly cash on the barrel.

Cool, looks like you can dive out your window right into the pool.

Also, looks like a good place to entertain the local girls. Just make sure to wear a few rubbers so you don't get them prego.

You'd be a fool not to. :2 cents:

can you buy property there now? Isn't is just a lease?

careful they'll rob your ass everyother day there

It's a 99 year lease - from what I understand.

so what do you do then? I know I don't want to be entering any new leases when I am 150 years old

ROFL

Good question: You can buy property.

If you're within 25 miles of the ocean then you cannot "own" property if you're not a Mexican citizen.

Non citizens who wish to buy property do it through a trust. It costs a few hundred dollars to set it up and then about $200.00/yr maintenance.

You still have to pay the note off (or pay cash) and it's your house to sell, rent or live in, but your name isn't on the paperwork.

208K????
only in mexico :winkwink:

Not too bad :)

My mother-in-law told us to take plenty of cash for bribes and stuff. I told her that Mexico now has 4 lane PAVED super-highways and even big jets can land in Guadalajara :)

Interesting. Have you researched financing down there?

It's beautiful...like a dream almost.

Guadalajara is still horrible for bribes from the police. I'm in Mexico atleast one week per month and try to avoid Guadalajara as much as possible, I try too stick too Mexico City and Monterrey, but sometimes the client needs trips to Guad....not fun...but man I'd love to own that house

That sounds pretty secure, what could go wrong with that set up?

No. Not yet. We plan to and/or maybe rent for a year and find the right house to buy.

I assume it would be similar to US financing ? Don't know. We're going down to look around some.

Nah. I think I would be comfortable after finding out more about exactly how to do it.

I think the bank's name is on the trust. People do it all the time from what I've gathered.

Monterrey is an option we're looking at as well as Cabo, Vallarta and Cancun.

The area we're looking at in Guadalajara is Rancho Contendo several miles out which is a gated community out by Lake Chapala.

I say go for it as well...

dude, check this out

not just that, but if I understand it right, they just started lifting those laws about gringos buying land by the ocean, so look into it more...
