Wish I had the same experience when I dealt with her. She’s very UNPLEASANT! I found her because of this video. I contacted her, told her our needs. She responded saying that she wouldn’t be able to help. Fine. I moved on found someone else to help. Well today my realtor told me that we wouldn’t be able to see a place (apparently it’s Edna’s listing) we liked because Edna said no. That supposedly she already “worked” with me. Which is not true. Idk what her issue is but that rubbed me the wrong way.
I'm getting a deeply unpleasant vibe from her, too! Esp. the way she chortled with delight when the men talked about missing out on a place, and the way she imitated their crestfallen faces. Rubbing it in! Anyway, they found something better. All about the CA$H.
Edna seems like a good person to deal with. I have lived here for over two years and not all real estate agents are like her. She hit the nail on the head when she recommended Airbnb's for when you first arrive. Don't worry if you have to be in an Airbnb for a couple of months or more. I stayed in one for 8 months and it worked out fine. It gives you plenty of time to explore the city and figure out where you want to be. There aren't a lot of tourists now because of Covid so there are lots and lots of great Airbnb's to choose from. When you're ready, then go to Edna. IMHO
Was the AIRbNB expensive for 8 months. I plan on coming to Merida in August to stay for about 3 months. I want to make sure Merida is a good fit for me before moving permanently. I'm a little concerned about the cost for staying in an AirBNB for 3 months. Thank you
@@traycee2404 Hi Traycee, go on the airbnb website and you can find the space that suits you. In fact you can know exactly how much it's going to cost because each property will calculate your bill on each property's web page. The only expense not included is the electricity. That is paid separately. An advantage to short term rentals like airbnb is that you can try out different neighborhoods. You can neighborhood hop! Staying for three months doesn't give you a lot of options because most landlords just offer a one-year lease do short-term is the ticket!
I would like to get in contact with Edna. Can you guys give me her contact information please. I am planning on moving to Merida at the end of the year and i want some information. Thank you!
Guys this was a great Q&A and I appreciate that you were honest about your mistake...the fact that you hesitated and the fact that a property you really wanted was pulled from under you! Good lesson learned. Another great tip, have the money on hand. Be ready to pull cash out and take the property you love. Great content! 💪
I am a new subscriber, cant wait to see how you guys grow as a channel and as people on your new adventure. I will be moving to Merida in May/June, so excited!
Love your channel. can you do a video on all things driving? how to got your drivers license? what it is like to drive? what happens if you get in an accident? etc
So glad this video exists! Really appreciate you uploading this, David and Travis. Such important info! I called Edna upon arriving in Mérida, as my fiancée and I were staying at an AirBnb but looking for a long term rental. Edna was prompt, professional and scheduled a consultation the next day. She spent a good while on Zoom speaking with me, in order to establish exactly what we were looking for and she immediately began looking for quality listings that met our needs. In less than a week-and-a-half we had moved into our home. It’s a beautiful, spacious, furnished townhome in one of the best neighborhoods in Mérida. Not only did she find us a lovely home, but accompanied me through the entire process with the homeowner and lawyer (who are both fantastic) and made sure we were happy and settled in with the keys before signing off on everything. I highly, highly recommend anyone considering staying in Mérida long term to contact Edna Campos. She’s amazing!
This was wonderful, thanks, guys. The way I've always handled security deposit protection for myself is when I say yes to a property I have the agent or landlord do a walk thru with me. I take pictures and document anything that is already worn/damaged/needing repairs and have all parties sign for verification. I'm looking forward to moving to Merida in the Fall once travel clears.
Great video. Thank you! I will definitely be using her when I get down there. One question that came to mind while watching in respect to where to look...have you thought about doing a video breaking down the different areas of town? What is special or unique about each side of town, what vibe each side has etc. I am moving there, but I am still researching what side of town I want to be in, and I am not clear what area fits me best. This would be sooo helpful ❤️ Thanks in advance, you guys are amazing!
Gentlemen..ANOTHER great video. This was so helpful. I am moving to Merida soon and I am so thankful for videos like this that provide the such inviolable and important info. Thank you!!
Love your youtube videos! I don't see Edna email address. Can you please send it to me? I will be arriving on April 1st. for 2mos. I need to find an Airbnb for that length of time. My goal is to move Merida. But first I need to make sure it is a good fit for me.
Sure thing! It should have been in the description, but it's edna@thohaus.mx! Also, if you're looking for airbnb alternatives (depending on your budget), check out meridaproperties.com.mx - they have some great places in Centro and who we used for our first house.
The beaches keep getting closer and closer to Merida.😆 Edna claimed they are 15 minutes away. However, most say they are 45 minutes and others say 30 minutes. How close are the beaches on a normal day from Merida and are the beaches more similar to the Jersey shore or Cancun?
Hahah, it depends on where you're at in city. From Centro they're about 45 mins, but from the northern parts of town they're closer to 15 mins. And we've only been to Progresso so far (we made a video there so you can check it out) but are excited to explore the rest of the beaches because we've heard amazing things!
I have been loving your videos. You two are super cute!!!! We are headed to Merida for a whole before moving to Taiwan. Thank you for the informative videos. There aren’t many like yours. Gracias!
Mérida Is awesome. Loved Here five years. From California. ITS safe, friendly, inexpensive, . However we must moved for reasons alot of people move back to States. Weather too hot , language barrier. You want to live Here, not just exist, and we aré too far AND miss our family back home.
This was hugely impactful! Will email Edna when I arrive in 2024!!! Now planning to rent an Airbnb when I first move…Will have Pesos in hand! You are so helpful!!
The money you give to the broker to hold the spot for you, is it counted along with the 2 months payment if there is no guarantor? Would it be considered 1st month rent then?
I was hoping ya would of asked her how do we move in with service dog's. Is it like in America where you have the papers saying they're service animal's and they don't have to pay rent or what because my fur babies are my kid's they go everywhere I go. Loved the video as alway xoxo
Most properties are pet friendly and don't require any additional pet rent, but we don't think it's like the States where they allow pets to be categorized as service animals. Hope that's helpful!
@@TravelWTravis OMG really they don't ask for pet rent so I won't have to show them my paper's for them being service dog's. I love Merida even more 😍 Thank you guy's your awesome 😍 xoxo
There are very few houses for rent that do not accept dogs, regardless of whether they are service dogs, the only problem is that service dogs are not very common here, so you will find places that do not allow you to enter with your Dog, even if you show that it is a service dog, many places accept them, but also many will deny you entry, here is a blind boy who has his service dog and unfortunately many times he has appeared in local newspapers because they deny him the access, so that might be a problem you have to deal with.
You guys have no idea how happy it makes me seeing americans being happy in Mexico, the past 5 years have been rough, we always had bad reputation but what happened with the wall and trump made it even harder to read the news and opinions people had of us.
So do you suggest that we hit the ATM daily for our maximum withdrawal in order to have the cash ready in pesos? Also, is US currency ever accepted as a deposit? And one more question: can you bring US cash and go to a bank to exchange it to pesos? How did you two handle this? Thank you in advance for your response and thank you for this great video!
I was in Merida last month. I opened a transferwise account before I went to Mexico. Their conversion rate was the best. I took pesos out a I needed it without a problem.
Yep, it's always pesos and we went to the ATM daily for a while, using the Charles Schwab investor checking account we recommend for the best conversion. We don't know about bringing cash here to convert (or getting it converted to pesos back home) - it all depends on where you're going to get the best conversion rate!
Hello guys I love the channel. I have two questions. First, as gay male myself. I wanted to know how are you treated in Merida society due to your preference. Second.... I never see any night life such as a gay bar or club in any expats videos. Do they exist. Thanks in advance fellas.
Hey Keith! We made a video talking about our experience being gay in Mexico (spoiler alert - it's a non-issue) but as far as clubs and nightlife, we're not entirely sure because most of it has been shutdown since we've arrived due to Covid. We do know there is a gay community in Mérida and are sure there are spots that are more gay-friendly than others, but we haven't been ourselves!
Hi guys! I am in Merida helping my son find a house. I emailed your realtor but no luck so far. House finding is a bit harder than we expected. Should we try another realtor? Do you know anyone else? Thank you so much! Chris
It is and you can probably find a one bed for around that price, it just depends on if it’s furnished, how nice, new, etc. The rents definitely vary but are obviously way more affordable than what we were coming from in the States!
Strange - her email is edna@thohaus.mx, that’s not working for you? We were just emailing with her this morning so we know it’s up. Maybe double check on your end?
Thank you. Thank you so much for moving to México. But here comes the rant: As a mexican who lives in Tijuana I can honeslty say that this "trend" and "cheap" life for you makes ours worst, impossibly worst. So not only we have to compete with USA's economy in order to have access to any kind of housing here in our OWN country right at the border, we also have to compete everywhere else now because you decided it was easier for YOU to up our housing prices. Our minimun wage is 10 times less than your own, and it's already difficult enough to live day by day. Renting a house here in Tijuana tipically starts at 600dlls, while most only earn up to 400dlls in a MONTHLY basis. I know it's not your fault. Not personally. But actively promoting this kind of behaviour only compromises mexican's already endangered quality of life. I do hope you do consider this. You are literally making it impossible for US mexicans to live in our own country. End of rant
You make an excellent point. I don't think you sneed to apologize. We foreigners move to move to other countries to enjoy better weather, better food, lowercist of living, and yes, kind people, without considering what we are doing to them. Travis and David were poor in LA. They live like kings in Merida. How is this affecting locals?
Cafe con Leche ... i also wanted to thank both of you as well for posting this very informative video !! One question and that is does Mexico have something similar to the 'Apartment Guide' like we have up here in the states ?
@@TravelWTravis thank you.. I am looking to move to merida following watching all your videos with excellent content also I am one of your subscribers.. I am in the process of getting a Temporary residency visa as I think its the best choice although I will be coming from the UK 🇬🇧 would I have any problems or is it all the same process as the Americans. Appreciate your reply
@@msd6346 Ah sorry, we're not sure what the process is like coming from the UK - definitely check with their consulates over there and I'm sure they'll let you know!!
Just found you guys a week or so ago, so going back and watching. This was so fun, she definitely thought Travis was high maintenance. But you can tell she adores you both. Great information. Our goal is to buy, but we do want to rent first to make sure we are in the right area for us. Thanks!
Question please- when a US financial institution wants to send you a verification code on your cell phone.....but you now have a Mexican sim card and Mexican phone number....how do you receive the code ? When we leave we hope to cancel our cell service once we get into Mexico. Thx !!!!!
Hm, that's a good question. We still have our US numbers so we're not sure - other than maybe opening a Google Voice number and switching your contact info before you leave, so that way when you get a text it'll go to the GV account and can be checked from any device?

Is Monte Carlo In the North? I'm guessing not because I saw in a blog that you can rent a 1 berm for under $400 a month.
It is and you can probably find a one bed for around that price, it just depends on if it’s furnished, how nice, new, etc. The rents definitely vary but are obviously way more affordable than what we were coming from in the States!

It's true!
Great video. Very informative.
If you want to buy a home, can you negotiate the price like in the USA or not?
We believe so, although we haven't yet purchased anything so we're not entirely sure what that whole process is like!
How does rental insurance work in Merida/Mexico? Do you get an International plan or go through a local agency?
Hmm, great question! We actually don't have rental insurance (😬) but should probably look into that!
