    We have been watching you videos for some time. In fact we purchased a home on Calle 47 80 y 82 located between Santiago and Santa Anna. We don’t air-bnb our home but us a management company recommended by our good friend, the come weekly and do light house cleaning, landscaping, and cleaning the pool. Comes to 650 mid per week. We have thought about air bnb but not sure how to get started. It is nice however to come home, in Mexico, and know no one has been there.

    Living in Mérida, Mexico, is a delightful experience characterized by its rich cultural heritage, vibrant arts scene, and friendly community. The city's colonial charm is evident in its well-preserved architecture and picturesque streets, while its modern amenities ensure a comfortable lifestyle. Mérida offers a unique blend of traditional Yucatecan cuisine and contemporary dining options, making it a food lover's paradise. The warm, tropical climate allows for year-round outdoor activities, and its proximity to stunning beaches and Mayan ruins provides endless opportunities for exploration. Moreover, Mérida's low crime rate and affordable cost of living make it an attractive destination for both locals and expatriates seeking a high quality of life. Great video, Alexander Howell!

    I live in Vancouver Canada. A 680sq ft. 1 bedroom condo is $750,000. I shopped new 2 bedroom 3 bathroom 1700 sq.ft places in Merida for $260,000 Canadian. What's cheaper in Merida than Vancouver? EVERYTHING. I'm retiring to Merida in 6 years.

    • @AlexanderFromKC
      @AlexanderFromKC 25 днів тому

      This is my biggest point, so thank you for stating it with personal experience! Everything is more expensive right now, and there is definitely a conversation to be had about foreigners (like us) making things a little bit more expensive... that's not the biggest issue though. We were lucky to build when we did, but to build our house in Merida, even in Kansas City, would be crazy. My biggest piece of advice? Buy right, research where you shop, and buy solar panels. If you do those things you'll do great. Thanks again for the comment, well put!

      See this article ( www.theyucatantimes.com/2019/09/merida-is-number-21-in-the-worlds-safest-cities-ranking-2019/ ), but it's CEO World Magazine that ranked it this way. I've seen several people push back on this, but I can tell you from my own experience in traveling that I agree with it. We've traveled all over the world, my wife even more so than myself, and I've never felt uncomfortable in Merida. Not saying that it couldn't happen, but my experience has been incredible.

    Hotter than hell. stay out. HAPPY i do not have to beg on here for food, drinks, rent or vacations. IT is just greedy to beg, when you are house sitting . wtf Leave these thugs alone or die. I love your videos. God bless you always, and the world. Hola from Queretaro. Over 62 years visiting Mexico, all 0ver the world and all 50 USA states. Keep frozen water bottles for body, bed. pets in and out. Wear a wide brim hat, and loose clothing. See how the Arabs are dressed in the desert. MOVE! YOU are not trees. Carry frozen water bottles for body, bed, chair, car, animals etc. REAL TRUTH. Move to Mexico. Criminals are worldwide. Be alert. Hola from Queretaro. There are African Mexicans. Africans are all over the world. Africa is the mother of ALL civilizations. I was born in Chicago in 1942 Southside, and happy I obeyed my parents. I live in Queretaro now since 2021. I wish you the best, and stay away from drugs, drinks and lust. Be honest. Do not marry, shack, or have babies. Live alone is safer. Hola from Queretaro. I have been speaking Spanish since age 14. Merida was too hot. I never wanted a house in Acapulco, but I rented a home, had a timeshare, rented rooms and apartments. I am a USA Muslim. I am in my 82nd year living in Queretaro since 2021. I was 20 in 1962, when I came alone from Chicago on a 2 weeks vacation to Mexico, from the border down to Acapulco. You are never alone, when nice families are around, and beware of the evil and scammers around. Earthquakes were the deal breakers for not retiring to Acapulco. I always worked, and never asked anyone for anything. I am a giver to nice and honest none beggars, and my 411 is FREE. USA got too dangerous, so I left at 79, for I would have eliminated the John Gacy look alike trying to get into my heavily blocked apartment with a key at all hours of the day and night. I was being poisoned for life insurance, but God warned me, and he took care of the evil demon. God protects me, but I do protect myself also by any means necessary. I have had to protect myself from evil demons, no matter where I live. I pity the fool, who tries to eliminate me. I have traveled all 50 USA states and the world on my own dime from WORKING A JOB, that paid every 2 weeks, overtime, and paid vacations up to 6 weeks. Never needed a go fund to travel. I speak Spanish and other languages since age 14 as a second language. I survived the USA for 79 years and earned all my income there. A nice pension and small savings support me and allows me to help non beggars. I can smell scammers and dishonesty a block away, and then I block their behinds. RENT is all i pay, because it includes everything, maid and security. Since 2021 it has been $672 per month to a present $916 per month. I order stock up groceries etc once a month or two at about $400 or less and delivered to my home in Queretaro. Gifts excluded, since it depends on you, and I prefer to keep that private, but I only am generous to none and honest beggars, who are not scammers or dangerous. I block evil criminals worldwide. CLICK, I am not rich or stupid.

    • @AlexanderFromKC
      @AlexanderFromKC Місяць тому

      I would absolutely ask more people than just me, but from my experience notaries in Mexico are more than just legal documents "verifiers" like they are in the USA. Our notaria, which was Notaria 11, was more like a title company combined with a real estate lawyer on board. They were the ones that handled closing, the handling of monies to all parties, our power of attorney, and closing - all combined into one office. They're basically the entire middle-man in the buying and selling of property.

    • @AlexanderFromKC
      @AlexanderFromKC Місяць тому

      The best way that I can recommend to get started is to find forums and groups on websites like Facebook, and read everything you can about the area you're looking to buy. Some can be toxic, but listening to what others have to say is vital when determining your location. That may also help you find your real estate agent, architect, and other trusted resources that you're going to need. Although we started quickly, we read hundreds of posts before we found our agents, but that relationship lead us to our architect and so on... Be patient, read a lot, and you'll have a great journey. Good luck!

    We would like to buy a home and rent as an Airbnb. What features do you feel are important to make the property mort desirable and rentable? Tia

    • @AlexanderFromKC
      @AlexanderFromKC Місяць тому

      Air conditioning in every bedroom and every "hang out" space" are very important. The number one thing you have to have is a pool though, and I would tell you that making it just a little bigger than the average one is good for all parties. Other things would be a nice kitchen, (personal suggestion) a bathroom in every bedroom, and convenience appliances like a washer/dryer are huge for looking at longer term rentals.

    • @meatgravylard
      @meatgravylard Місяць тому

      From my experience here, starting well before Airbnb the number one for the renter is location, Santiago is the most well known neighborhood and has been since the area formerly called "Gringo Gulch" was all that was really known. If not there, close.. For the owner an easy to maintain house built to very high standards will produce the most return with the fewest headaches. A one bedroom house, not necessarily small, just with fewer rooms with 85-90% occupancy at $125 US per night will be more profitable and easier/less expensive to manage than the multi roomed higher cost alternatives. Also an open design with fewer rooms will allow for hosting events with multiple people paying to visit but not sleep, similar to Airbnb Experiences if desired... Oh, I would add that a large kitchen is a huge bonus...even if the renters never walk to the market and shop for ingredients, the thought of doing it is a hook..

Mérida no tiene una única red para mostrar propiedades en venta, por lo que un agente es de gran ayuda. Después de eso, se trata de encontrar lo que desea y que se ajuste a su presupuesto. Únase a grupos y foros de Facebook y tendrá más ayuda de la que sabe qué hacer. ¡Buena suerte!

    Did you put a/c in the house you are building? Are there golf courses? I'm looking to buy a property where I can see the sunset from my house?

      We put AC units in almost every room of the house. While you adapt pretty quickly to the heat, it's nice to be able to turn on the units and enjoy a quick cool down! There are one or two golf courses, but they're in planned communities north of the main city, or Centro. They look really nice, and many expats seem to find those areas a nice transition. If you want to see the sunset, I would suggest finding a place that's a bit taller. Merida is in the northern part of Yucatan, so viewing southwest or west you can definitely view a sunset but as flat as it is you'll need the right vantage point. I personally like the view from the rooftop bar, Kioyu Sky Lounge, but we don't necessarily get to watch it from our house.

      @@AlexanderFromKC Thanks for your response. I appreciate it. Still, if I am going to make a move I have to have a sumset view from my home. Still looking.

    Even with the astronomic increase in pricing, we can't imagine living anywhere else than Merida.

      I completely understand that. Unfortunately, prices are going up everywhere, so no matter where you go...

    I feel overwhelmed with building. I would love to find a small piece of property in Merida so I can build a small 2 bed/2 bath home. But it's gotten sooo expensive.

      It's definitely gotten expensive, but honestly, everywhere has. There are still deals to be found, but that's a journey too. Relax and find a great agent to help out, and you'll be good to go. The construction process is always intimidating, but I've learned from all sides of it that you just have to force yourself to be patient - a trait that is very difficult for me to possess.

      Thank you so much! It's a wonderful place to go, and far larger than I'd imagined.

    Where is the cooling unit you are talking about??? You go so fast with the camera movement it is hard to see some of these details.

    • @AlexanderFromKC

      I apologize for the quick movement. Our architect found some really good places to "hide" several of the units, especially in the bedrooms they are recessed into the closets a bit. in the front TV room it's probably out of frame because it's located on the walls where the doors are - way up high! There is normally a unit in every main room except the entry area, and always up high on a wall. Each outdoor condenser/compressor can handle around 8-10 indoor units, so they'll be on the roof while the interior pieces are inside. It's actually a bit of a compliment that they're hard to see!
