Frequently Asked Questions
-
Home prices in Playa del Carmen vary widely depending on location, quality of finishes, amenities, and whether the property is resale or pre-construction.
At Paradise Listings, we work with a minimum budget of $200,000 USD. This allows us to ensure proper construction standards, strong resale value, and solid long-term investment potential. While there are cheaper options on the market, they often come with legal, structural, or rental challenges we choose not to represent.
-
Yes. Foreigners can legally buy property in Mexico, including Playa del Carmen.
If the property is located within the restricted zone (which includes coastal areas), ownership is held through a bank trust (fideicomiso). This gives you full rights to use, rent, sell, and inherit the property, similar to ownership in the US or Canada.
We guide our clients through this process step by step and coordinate closely with an independent legal team to ensure everything is structured correctly from day one.
-
Mexico is primarily a cash market, especially for foreign buyers. Traditional local mortgages are limited and usually come with higher interest rates than in the US or Canada.
That said, financing is possible in certain cases. Depending on your situation, we can:
Connect you with private or international lenders
Explore developer financing on select pre-construction projects
Discuss alternative strategies many foreign buyers use successfully
We help you understand what’s realistic before you commit to a property, so there are no surprises later.
