Forbes México: Investing with Discipline in Riviera Maya Real Estate

Forbes México published an article by Karina D. Sayed, founder and director of Playa Realtors, on why buying in the Riviera Maya calls for financial discipline.

It covers the questions buyers ask us every week: presale versus resale, how to separate projected returns from net returns once management, maintenance, taxes, platform fees and empty weeks are counted, how to test the numbers against lower occupancy and higher costs, and why every micro-market needs its own analysis. It also reminds foreign buyers to review the notary, legal and tax steps, including the bank trust (fideicomiso) where it applies.
