A BBVA Bancomer analysis points out that more than a million baby boomers live in Mexico

15% of american expatriates living in Mexico purchased a home in peaceful, well-communicated cities where they can enjoy great food and quality medical care.

No Sun and No Sea

Margarita and Robert McClarins, a couple of californians retirees, chose Mexico to purchase a 325 thousand dollars second home. One mandatory requiremente: NO Sun & Sea, but a truly retirement community.

Destinations like San Miguel de Allende, Morelia, Pátzcuaro, Hidalgo, Tequila, Ajijic, Chapala Lakeshore and Valle de Guadalupe in Baja, have become “Retirees Cities”.

The Spanish real estate company Fadesa is promoting amongst USA retirees a huge San Miguel de Allende project. With 72.5 Acres, the “Santa Margarita Hacienda Residencial” will have 198 homes, a 100 rooms hotel-boutique, spa, clubhouse and a number of ammenities for a 70 million US Dls. investment.

Land price in San Miguel de Allende has risen from 1,800 to 4,000 US Dls. per square meter, a level comparable to Cancún, experts say.

US Active Living International (ALI), building a retirees community in Puerto Vallarta, in association with Spain’s Sensara Partners, are now probing into inner Mexico cities.

“Not every baby boomer wants sun and sea. Some are looking for cities with quality services, particularly regarding medical care. That is why we are buying for land in those towns, to create communities”, said David Collins, ALI’s president and founder.

In Morelia, 550 houses are being built for Houston and Los Angeles ‘baby boomers’. The ”Montaña Monarca” project, a city with hospital, malls and a theater.

Patzcuaro Property Management sells homes from 100 thousand dollars.

Mexico was chosen number one destination for retirement among the american ‘baby boomers’, price and accesibility being the prominent factors, according to the ‘World Retirement Index’ made by International Living.

“Being close to the US and Canada, good low price services, good telecommunications and prices overall, are factors for a second property purchase where Mexico has lead” commented Laura Sheridan, the poll author.(Source: Reforma)

Casa Solis: Heaven is a Place on Earth

Prepare yourself for a true discovery. Find the magical moments of this strikingly beautiful house architecture and let the drama of the Mexican sunlight play and reveal the secrets beyond its façades.

Mediterranean-inspired, Casa Solis reminds us of vineyards and olive orchards, as it was built in the same land where, a few miles away, Don Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla, father of Mexico´s Independence founded the first winery in America.

Living off San Miguel de Allende, in Casa Solis, is inspiring and passionate, a lifetime experience. Balancing vernacular design and efficient modern lifestyle, the Casa keeps all of the dreaming and magic created by the architect. Far from fighting the weather, it makes love with the sun. Sculptured from the warm soil, its blind north façade lets the wind caress and naturally cool the house, and the foyer, dinning and living spaces become observation pavilions of the vast San Miguel de Allende´s countryside. Orchards, mountains and native vegetation fulfill the peaceful sight, while the interior awaits with a plethora of artistic surprises.
