Puerto Vallarta Real Estate.

Puerto Vallarta nestled in the Sierra Madre Mountains and on the same latitude as Hawaii, is the perfect beach destination for those looking to purchase vacation homes or relocate, as well as for those seeking exciting Puerto Vallarta Real Estate investment opportunities.

With real estate prices  slowing down in the states because of the free lending practices of the Fed and the banks causing the bubble in prices. Speculation with 125% loans and mortgages for people who did not understand that ARM loans a very risky has hurt many families in the U.S.

Puerto Vallarta Real Estate demand has increased at a normal pace of 10-12 percent per year because most of the sales here are cash and a very small percentage of real estate sales have been financed.  This trend is expected to continue. 
Living in Mexico is appealing to real estate buyers due to low property taxes, low maintenance fees, luxurious living at budget prices even today compared to the dollar per square foot price of properties in California, Florida, Hawaii and New York City.  Puerto Vallarta is a great place to retire, breathe fresh sea air, enjoy fresh tropical fruits and garden fresh vegetables are plentiful, golf everyday under crystal blue skies even in the rainy season (summer) and many other activities for those who like to have fun in the sun.  We do not have any reports of SAD "seasonal affective disorder"  here, because it is a SUNNY DAY:)

A real plus for American and Canadian investors is that the Puerto Vallarta Real Estate market is priced in U.S. dollars not in Pesos.  Vallarta is also an excellent place for Baby Boomers looking for alternatives for retirement and especially for Baby Boomers that are retiring on fixed incomes.

The activities available include water sports, swimming with the dolphins, fishing, whale watching in the winter and ecotourism such as the canopy experience – which takes you zip lining above the jungle floor.  In the jungle there are waterfalls to swim under or ride over, and a short boat ride can take you to island-like retreats such as Playa Las Animas, Yelapa or Quimixto.
