A recent change to a leading Puerto Vallarta Real Estate website has made access to key information about buying Puerto Vallarta Luxury Condos or other properties and living in Puerto Vallarta easier, through direct access to updates from Puerto Vallarta’s top real estate agent, Michael Green.

This particular website is hosted by TOPMexicoRealEstate, a network of Mexico’s leading real estate experts. TOPMexicoRealEstate.com includes a blog, which posts information about properties, new developments, the purchasing process in Mexico, life in various cities, important events, infrastructure advancement and other related topics, submitted from 17 contributing brokers, lawyers and other experts.

The new change includes the posts directly on the Puerto Vallarta main page as they appear in the blog. This means that real estate searchers will have the most recent updates right in front of them as they begin their property and information search, without having to enter the blog page.

The posts about Puerto Vallarta come from Michael Green of Tropicasa Real Estate, with some contributions Thomas Lloyd, founder and president of TOPMexicoRealEstate.com.

Michael Green has 13 years of experience in carrying real estate transactions for Americans and Canadians in Puerto Vallarta. He has taken, and continues to take, numerous courses to keep his knowledge of real estate current in all aspects. He has also assisted in preparing classes for new agents. Green uses his experience and knowledge of real estate to identify the most essential information on an ongoing basis for buyers interested in Peurto Vallarta, making his contributions to the TOPMexico page invaluable for new, or even second time buyers.

The information includes tips on buying and selling a condo – a favorite in this market area, as well as detailed information about purchasing processes, taxes involved during the purchase and later on, in the ownership. An example of a recent post is “What things should we check on the walkthrough of our new condominium in Puerto Vallarta?” This is a checklist essential items when viewing a Puerto Vallarta Beachfront Condos which a buyer is considering. While buyers tend to trust their own impression, the details of what to look for from a professional who has done this hundreds of times can greatly help ensure that buyers are making the correct choice.

The Lake Chapala Real Estate area has recently celebrated the history of an important landmark in its development as a favourite among Mexico Retirement Communities, namely, the 90th anniversary of the Old Train Station in the town of Chapala.

The train station dates to 1920, and was built to support traffic of visitors from Mexico City and Guadalajara. It could be said that, in the current day, this function has been replaced by the nearby Guadalajara International Airport, which brings vacationers and retirees, now including a large number from the U.S. and Canada.

The history of the trend to own a home on the shore of Mexico’s most beautiful lake goes back further than the current train station itself – to the days of Porfirio Diaz, president and dictator of Mexico for 35 years (1875 – 1910.) During his presidency, high society from Mexico City and Guadalajara joined him in the trend of building beautiful vacation homes on Lake Chapala. Unfortunately for President Diaz, he never had the chance to enjoy retirement in Chapala; he went into exile during the Mexican Revolution.

However, there are two very fortunate points for American and Canadians retiring in Chapala and the nearby town of Ajijic these days. One is that landmarks of the splendor of that time are still standing as reminders of its rich heritage. The other is that these days retirees can enjoy the relaxing lifestyle of Chapala on a budget far more accessible than that of a President, and the other is that they do not need to be from the high society.

Retirement-friendly homes in Chapala or Ajijic can be found for as low as US$150,000. Of course, higher luxury is also readily available, but at prices much more accessible than in the past. The cost of day-to-day life is likewise much more accessible, providing retirees with a means of living much more comfortably on the funds they have available.

Those who retire in the Lake Chapala area will enjoy the relaxing atmosphere of an old Mexican town, with cobblestone roads and quaint, traditional houses lining these roads, as well as a community that will make them truly feel at home.  You can do so many activities, such as sailing, sports, biking, and social clubs and attend events such as the train station anniversary celebrations.

The celebrations lasted from Tuesday April 20 to Sunday April 25, 2010, and included many nightly events such as displays of historical documents and photos, presentations about the architecture, children’s workshops, live traditional music, the presentation of books about the station and area’s history and theater.

A third from the record-high foreign remittances sent back home by overseas Filipino workers is spent mainly on real estate investments, therefore making our local property market more stronger than the previous years, all according to industry players and market watchers.

This trend marks the end of the era where almost all of the OFW remittances were spent on consumer goods, with little left for savings and other investments. According to statistics, in 2006, OFWs sent back their local beneficiaries amounting to $ 12.6 billion through the banking system alone. It is estimated by the central bank that this amount is even understated by an average of 30 percent because of funds sent home through informal channels. This means that as much as $4.2 billion in OFW funds were spent on real estate last year—a number that will further rise, given the expectations of the central bank of as much as $14 billion in remittances for the year 2007.

Large and small real estate developers are now investing heavily on getting their expatriate Filipino buyers. These organizations go for periodic sales tours in Europe and the US, targeting Filipino buyers, some even setting up their own sales offices in areas with high percentage of potential clients. According to the National Statistical Coordination Board, it shows that the property sector has recorded the fastest growth rate in the recent months.

A short sale is the sale of property where the outstanding loan balance is more than the property is worth and the bank agrees to accept less than what is owed in order to close the deal and avoid foreclosing on the home.

Although there are over 70,000 agents in the greater Phoenix/Scottsdale area, very few (probably less than 1%) are qualified with the experience and system to complete a short sale from beginning to end.

Short sales are our expertise and we have made it a point over the past few years to learn everything we can about the process, create relationships with the banks, and streamline our system to better benefit our clients.
