I lived in Playa Del Carmen for 7 weeks in 2017 and loved it. I rented an apartment on Calle 22 and 5th Avenue, just a block from the beach. A good thing to know is the Avenues are numbered by 5’s (5th Ave, 10th Avenue, 15 etc )so 5th is just a block from the beach ! Streets are numbered by 2. Wonderful trip and great memories.

You make great videos, no doubt. About Playa del Carmen, I have conflicting feelings . I have relatives living there, so I get to see it every once in a while over the years. On one hand, amazing nature and lovely places to live, like you showed. Great place to vacation. On the other hand, I feel so sad that the jungle is being mowed down to create these lovely buildings. Non stop construction noises. And the now nonexistant beach. Washed away despite the local goverment's efforts to import sand. I wish there was a way to preserve the area and still enjoy it. Sewage goes to the cenotes and ocean. Sorry if I brought the mood down. It is a complex topic. If I were looking to invest in property long term, I think the diminishing nature would weigh on my decision.

Hey Maddie - not to be an aguafiestas (party pooper) but before investing heavily in rental apartments on the Caribbean side, please take onto account the increasing problem with sargassum. This year the sargassum that will be affecting that side of Mexico will be the worst ever. If that keeps up, places like PdC and Cancun will lose favor, and the Pacific side (which doesn’t have the sargassum issue) will become much more popular.

Hey Maddie, been watching your channel since you lived in Puerto Morelos, I've lived in PDC for 8 years. The price gouging that is happening here is out of control and rents have almost quadrupled with all of the ppl from U.S. and Canada moving here. Local people are being priced out of their communitites and tensions are starting to rise a bit as petty theft is increasing.We now have 9-10 months of sargasso every year making the beaches useless, this place is no longer the paradise it once was and most locals predict it will turn into another Acapulco circa 1990's. $220k for a studio is not a good deal, it's a joke and that same studio would normally go for about $110-$120k. Please think of the local Mexican population who can no longer afford to live in a place where they work.

There are bunch of old rusty homes north of CTM are turning to these trendy studio buildings to make a profit, and of course the locals won't ever consider buying one with a family of their 4+. Most of locals that work there lived in the colonial side. And yes some are siting on concrete housing without a/c near the 88 side, but soon or later, the landlords are going to sell or rebuild anyway. The last time I lived there in 2021, they were building a bunch of new homes 5-6km west of the main hwy.. those are supposed to be priced for locals. This just means the locals would have further commute.. don't be too concerns.. there are bunch of ppl making money from all of this. Just hope the government would recycle the money back to the city and the communities

Some friendly advice...i spent the last 3 years traveling through Mexico and spent most of the pandemic and afterwards in Playa del Carmen.. the locals like to call it playa del Crimen...which means beach of crimes. Cozumel is generally much safer, the police are not as corrupt and the cartels are less conspicuous. The local police robbed me 5 time, mainly in Playa. I never had any problems anywhere else i have been in Mexico and i have been all over, even to some of the worst places and speak spanish. I recommend Huatulco Oaxaca as a place to consider buying a condo or renting long term. The beaches are amazing, clean, low crime , cartels operate away from the tourist areas because the cartel bosses there want to keep tourism going. Police are not corruptt like in the Caribbean. With the sargassum problem in the Caribbean getting worse every year, going to the beach will be a big issue. Crime is also getting worse. I recommend watching the Mexican news if you underdtand Spanish there sr also some news sites in English for the Caribbean news. Then you will see what exactly is going on. Good luck iand best wishes n your travels

We lived in Playa for a year, and I wouldn't want to be super close to Fifth...but then, we're older and don't stay out late at night. We lived in two different apartments, one on 34th five blocks from the beach, and one on 42nd near 10th Ave. That was plenty close to walk to 5th and to the beach. Noise is definitely an issue, but for us, it was more construction noise than party noise, as there was so much development going on at that time. All the places you toured looked great and would make super nice short-term rentals, though I think the one near the highway would have less appeal for vacationers. Most people want to be close to the beach. A smaller fridge would be a problem for living but not for short-term renting, since the guests will be going out to eat and drink most of the time. I liked the one bedroom better than the studios, as it felt more spacious and less like a hotel. Best of luck in your choice!

Hi, Maddie. What are the rules in PDC for construction and safety codes in buildings and elevators? Don't the prices for the studios and one bedrooms seem a bit high? They don't look much different than a nice hotel room with a kitchenette. What about the heater behind the bed? Does the air conditioner typically blow above the bed? On the beach, what is the story with the smelly seaweed? And apparently the sewage that goes out to the ocean? How bad is the heat and humidity after April or May? What are the typical rentals per week or month? What's the noise level in the area? Sorry for all the questions. 😉

Also, if you are wanting the better tenants, you'll be better off looking for nicer, bigger long term rentals. The short-term vacationer renters tend to not care and trash the place assuming they won't be getting their security deposit back. That happened to me the first time I rented my place to kids who just wanted a place to "relax" (the said) when they in reality were partying non-stop and fighting and annoying the neighbors. They destroyed the place.

Great vid Maddie! I wonder if you rent your fave for a month -3 mo. Might be a good way to test-drive... I love Xpu-Ha Beach, further south but not a bad ride to PDC. They have some brand new condos there, next to my fave hotel, Catalonia Royal Tulum (no, it really is not in or near Tulum. The closest are across the street from the beach but the developers own the piece of beach near CRT, has an underground tunnel and residents can golf cart over to their beach front private club. My only concern is the massive sargasso issue all up & down the Riviera Maya. Tourists, including me and my guy went anyway but it has gotten so bad that I am not sure about returning. I love the resort and the pool, but I am a beach girl - I do the pool a day or two... I love this area so much. It is a mother nature situation for sure, with the root cause being us humans - not singly, and not just in Mexico, but a culture where industry has ruled over environment. Sorry to bleat on about it. My concern is that these resorts and towns need a dedicated plan to deal with the sargasso and help from the government. There is a lot of tourist dollars at stake. Always love seeing your vids. You look Marvelous!

Some of the bars make the walls vibrate in buildings that are nearby. Lol! I'm not kidding. Anything a few blocks away would be amazing. In 2021, when I was staying in PDC, I was part of several FB Groups. Many people said that if you are looking at buying a rental property, never buy on the other side of the highway. People seem to prefer the properties on the oceanside. Anyway, bravo on wanting to expand your holdings.

Feel free to contact my real estate agent (his info is in the description) and he can let you know about any of the properties. First come first serve and no hard feelings either way. It’s going to take me some time to decide

Beautiful and a day trip to Cozumel would be a lot of fun on calmer sea days. I enjoyed visiting there in the past and hope to return again.

If the #'s work out and the rentals are constant, and the place taken care of, it sounds like a good temporary residence (for those who want it) or a very good rental investment location for the weekly vaca's, or weekenders or even longer term rentals. Don't mind visiting a party, jst don't want to live there. I'd personally consider a temp. residence (for investment) and use it for rentals to help pay it off quicker. Not crazy about Playa D.C but it's where the crowds migrate too .... and your locations are primo there on 5th. I went to Isla Mu "many" yrs ago. Loved it, Island time, but have been wondering what it's like today. Too touristy now? or still has that laid back flavor? Love the idea of a Golf Cart island. Can't wait to see your next vlog.

Nice video. I prefer the closest to the beach at the most affordable price. Hopefully with garage space.

Love the one for 158k. Also, having a patio is so important. I think you will still be better off to have spent less, even if it means less rent. I also love the one for 179k off 5th ave.

On the other hand, investing more now generally means higher resale value down the road, in addition to higher rent along the way.

Landlords need to hire YOU to do video showcases of their apartments. That's not intended to be flattery, it's an honest observation. You make ME want to buy an apartment, and I don't even like Playa del Carmen. lol I'm not even sure why...I'm going watch this a 2nd time? I think this makes you officially dangerous... ; ) lol I would stay away from any places with future construction projects already slated, as you don't want bad reviews online. Also, if this will be your first purchase, I think it's a sound plan to consider the one you would most want to live in, in case something were to happen in Mexico (like cartel violence, global economic crash) that keeps tourists from going there for vacation for a year or more. How wonderful that you can purchase property by the ocean.

I would think the area around 46 Norte (CTM) - I believe that is the area you referred to; or the one straight up from ferry which is also great location for the ADO station I’ve stayed in several places including right on Quinta but think near CTM is my favourite. A few great local restaurants, easy walk to Quinta, and great access to one of the best super quiet beaches that leads to a fresh water creek

I've done some research on purchasing in Mexico as a US citizen. From what I've researched, Mexico does not allow US citizens purchasing so close to the ocean. Now I was searching South of Tijuana, so maybe the other side is different with regulations. One thing you don't point out are these restrictions, I wish you pointed out these notes in your video. It's not as easy as you are making it out to be.

@ Mark Solidary. Unless you're Mexican you only get long term leases from the government. To oen property I think you have o be thirty five miles away from the beaches orit use to be. Mexican keeps changing it's rules. They just raised the income requirements. The average retirement amount for an American would not qualify to live in Mexico. If you own property there you can have less income. Mexico has changed from years past. I have seen a one bedroom apartment in a nice hi rise with underground parking beginning of last year for 95K . I thought these prices were high. Especially for the tiny singles with no real kitchens. The bubble we have ben I is starting to price properly downward. Someone I know who bought property in Colorado Springs at the end of last year has already lost 50K and the house is in a very good area with an HOA. They plan on keeping it but moved out and is renting the house able to currently cover the mortgage and moved into a cheaper rental house or themselves. I worked them not to buy but they didn't listen. I see things up in the ir now and noby really knows the way the wind is going to blow. Just speculation. I follow some of the top economist and they don't know either. Most say wait. Realtor will tell you this is the best time to buy. At least most of the one I have followed have said that

@@MarkSoliday I am surprised you could read my comment. My magnetic typewriter changes my words and spelling and I can't see what it did until after I send so I hope Maddie will delete my message. Mexico is beautiful but very complicated to buy there. A lot can go wrong so it's a good idea to hire a good attorney to go over your paperwork if you are buying. It's a big investment. I watch to see the beauty of Mexico and the culture that's still past down and no one does it better than Maddie. I see her new channel growing in the future back to where it was with Tangerine Travels and beyond that old channel Cheers 🥂

For the last place, property tax is about $400/yr and maintenance is about $170/mo for a 3 bedroom. Penthouse is probably in the $240 range. Contact me if you are interested in more information.

The other point is your monthly payment be covered by the rental monthly? Yes you will have to crunch the numbers. Be safe and think it through. Love ya ❤

Is the Air BnB market already saturated with available places? You see a ton when you look on the site. Also Mexico in general went up in popularity over the pandemic bc there were no restrictions so that was an anomaly that I wouldn't use as evidence for rentability maybe? Thanks for sharing! This was great!
