these a amazing City long time ago It was a kingdom the name was Valladolid New espain and here born the emperor Agustin de Iturbide king of the New espain thank you for the video
This woman needs her own talk show.... I love her... TY
Cuando visites Morelia, debes probar el famoso gazpacho de frutas. ¡Yum!
Lo intentamos nuestra primera vez allí.
You don’t have to answer, but what do you do for a living to be able to live in Mexico..I’m searching for work from home so we can move there. Thank you
Loui is living la vida with style
Is Loui happy there?
He was, but he's happy in most places! 😁
is the electric bill monthly I heard its every 2 months so $7000 peso for electric is not too bad its still high but if its every 2 months and your running your AC 24/7 that's not bad. but that is just my opinion
You are going to feel a big big! Different in the next 3 years, Mexico it’s getting better and better, thrust me! Mexico it’s going to grow a lot!
How do you deal with not drinking the water, taking a shower or taking a bath?
By drinking water, taking showers
How much did they get?
Nothing. We caught them!
@@dreamlifeinMexico Nice, A Happy Ending
Do any of these townhouses or condos charge what would be the equivalent of an HOA in the US?
Yes, they do. The last one we paid in Querétaro was 1200 MXP a month, which is quite high. I think we paid one of the highest in our area
We are moving to Queretaro from Saltillo and We have a 3 years old daughter with us. Kindly suggest the best place to stay in Queretaro. My husband will be working in TCS and we don't want to stay very far from his office. Plus we are focusing on the good english schools for our daughter. Which place you recomment ?
What or where is TCS?
Thanks for the video. What is the most active place to stay in the low season? Romantic Zone or Centro?
Yes, or 5 de diciembre is a great option as well
@@dreamlifeinMexico I watch to many of your videos. I saw your wife in another RUclipsr's video signing.
Are you buying something else in USA? Where did you invest the money of the sale?
Yes, we bought a mobile home to rent out
Interesting. So you left because you could not make money off of people's shelter. And you left the US because of the capitalistic society. Wow.
that is an extremely simplistic view. it's called 12 reasons, but then again, when you make comments like "make money off other people's shelter," what's to be expected. SMH
😂😂😂😂
Wow amazing..I so wanna be there..🙏💖
Can he let his wife talk?
thanks for the suggestion. we'll take it into consideration.
I live here full time in Bucerias just north of Puerto Vallarta and low season is my favorite time of year mainly because it is less crowded in Banderas. Bay. I know how to handle the heat and humidity because I moved from the Austin Texas area which is actually more humid and hot in the summer than here.
same here, on both accounts. low season is nice for more space and coming from coastal TX, the heat is not too bad
Wow!!👌😊💖
Thank you for covering this topic and educating us on all things PV. You said this wasn’t a topic you were strong on but you did a great job! Pride parades started out as a protest to the treatment of this community by government (mostly) and society in general. It has evolved over the many years into a more peaceful and educational parade yet, make no mistake, for those of us who have been around a while or know our history, it’s still a protest and a reminder. Nice to see how Mexico has evolved and grown with this community. Again, thank you for such helpful content.
Happy to do our small part to help. 🌈
Haters!! 🤮
Lol! Was that the parts where we talked about what we liked?🤣🤣🤣
@@dreamlifeinMexico you mock respect and humility, and compare everything to your snobby American standard; it's arrogant, presumptuous, and just plain rude. You are a guest in a foreign country, nothing more.
You suck. Mazatlan rules!!!!!!
Bullshit talk
Please learn to say the name correctly - Ma zat LAN
🥲this was what we said. but if it's not what you heard...
Great information! I too am considering moving to Mexico but a senior. Read other comments and as noted will reach out to Liz or Remy when I have my trip scheduled. Would want my initial visit to be a few weeks for seeing what it is all about. One of the best videos I have seen- many, many thanks!
thank you. Queretaro is a great place, and Liz and Romy are great for helping to loom for a place to live
So how you make your living, what king of job you do in Mexico ?
the short answer is real estate
@@dreamlifeinMexico ok you guys invested in real estate in Mexico or USA ? Thank you
We are loving our first low season in Bucerias. We are getting use to the humidity.
it's not as bad as people make it out to be. I think where you're coming from makes a big difference
Love this interview! “No one is coming to visit you”🤣💯♥️Keeping it all the way real. Lots of good information. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it! Dan was a fabulous guest and very honest 🤣
Nice tans. Enjoy .
thanks. we've been working on them. Landy just trans better though. 🌴🌞
I think that it would be nice to have fewer tourists around in the off-season and I know that the heat and humidity is a no-no for me, lol. It's good to see you enjoying PV!
thanks. it's nice to walk around with not so many people, but the humidity can take getting used to
I’m glad you like my city. You make me feel melancholy watching your video. Love it! Thank you for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it!we really ebbed Morelia, and the food is top notch!
Your kid was born in Mexico correct?
no he was born in the us.
I was really hoping you had been to the Oaxaca beaches when I started hearing your video and your start to discussing areas . I totally agree about Playa Del Carmen as I was going there last 8 years before seaweed got bad and it got more humid in winters . My attraction to Oaxaca from what I hear is it’s dryer , cleaner , quieter and more natural . The food is good I hear as well. I did like Pv and am considering going back but it is very commercial. I’m torn but maybe I’ll go to both this next trip. I do slow travel over a month or so . Thanks for all the useful info.
still on our list of places to go!
Hello, you moved to Mexico, it's up to you to learn Spanish!
who said we weren't?
Many of the gay "friendly" establishments you speak of are in fact gay owned . PV is an all inclusive city for ALL human beings . it really is a wonderful mix . Most of my close friends here are straight .
very inclusive. we really enjoyed the city and look forward to getting to know if more deeply. we always appreciate recommendations from people wife been here a while
This is an interesting video, but what were the total selling costs? Was it a percentage or a set amount?
why do gay guys wear dog masks??Kinda a weird.
@PTLeveryday-fn4qw I guess the same reason anyone dresses up in a costume, it’s fun? It’s fantasy? It’s escapism? It’s entertaining?
You are absolutely right about Real Estate in Mexico. MX needs to catch up with the tools to facilitate doing Real Estate business, like Agent certifications and licensing, property listing shared database (MLS) and Agents must be able to share commissions in order to speed up sales
@javierespana2807 Yeah, it seems like it makes sense, but i guess for now this system works for them, but it can lead to shady and unethical practices, but that can happen anyways anywhere. It can be frustrating thought for people new to the way things work in Mexico as compared to their home country
This was a helpful video. We may reach out to you to discuss a tour of rentals, though we currently living in Tlajomulco de Zúñiga and still have 1 1/2 years left on our 3 year lease, but Querétaro is out top choice for our next rental for up to 40000 pesos. Hopefully early next year we can arrange a tour with you.
Holy cow, selling your house is quite a process, thanks for the info!
@cindyk3076 You bet! it can be a little intimidating and lot frustrating!
In Ajijic, La Floresta aret, there is a "carriles" where they have horses available to horseback ride around town, You cant miss it. its located close to the soccer field, in the middle of the street. ive always felt comfortable riding around town like that.
@carmentorres1426 that's pretty cool. We've seen the horses around town, but weren't too sure you could rent them. Do you know the pricing?
Any thoughts on exploring Argentina? Mexico seemed a bit pricey. Groceries were cheaper, but any imported goods were more than in Canada.
@happyslave6783 We've briefly spoken about it, but it is very far. Much further than we, and probably others realize. the climate seems nice and there is a pretty favorable exchange rate though, but i can imagine how much any imported goods costs there
Owning a house gives you more freedom then renting because you can rent it out and go somewhere else… if you rent you have to worry if you go away paying rent for a place that you are not in. I think of it as wasting money unless you can get someone to rent while you are not there. (Ex. You go away for a month ) Get a good honest property manager to pay the bills and manage the tenant and you will have lots of freedoms. I’m speaking from experience.
Agree, but we only buy rentals in us as it's better ROI and leverage.
What was you closing costs approximately as a percentage (all fees). This needs to be taken into account when pricing the house I expect. Also why did you choose a different notaria when selling, was this at the buyers insistence Thanks
Thanks for honesty. Looks like living in Mexico can be very frustrated with and very stressful
It certainly can be but so can all countries lol
@jackyback3975 it can be for moments, but the overall level of stress, i would say, goes way down. Life is definitely laid back and slower here in general
@@dreamlifeinMexico agree, mexico is less stressful, just not speaking the language and being used to the way they do bidness can be challenging
So it was a big waste of time. Even with getting lucky on the exchange rate both buying and selling you only barely broke even? And all the risk of getting scammed or getting a squatting tenant who seem to be protected in Mexico too. The whole thing looks like a fool's errand. How long diid you own the property?
@happyslave6783 I definitely wouldn't call it a waste of time. We didn't lose to inflation and if we were willing to wait a while then we could have turned a nicer profit, it's all about what you're willing to do. Plus this we bought the home brand new from a well known, established builder, and when we did put a tenant in we used a reputable agency and a poliza juridica to help alleviate any possible issues with the tenant.
My wife and I are planning on buying a condo in CDMX or a house in QRO. We were looking at around $100-150k. Our goal is to have a base in North America, Europe and Asia for our children to have the most options in life. We have a house in the USA and the property taxes & insurance keep skyrocketing… I was told by our family in Mexico that property taxes & insurance are way lower. I’m hoping this is true lol. I am thinking of selling it and buying in Mexico instead.
You won't get anything half decent for that amount in either of those cities
@@intotheblue970They prob won’t find anything for that price in those cities and if they do it will be a house that is falling apart or needs a LOT of work. You can buy a good house for that cost in La Piedad Michoacán (and towns that are rural) but in CDMX or Queretaro I think it would be almost impossible to find something decent in those cities that doesn’t need work. I am not going to say it’s impossible but it would certainly be hard in a good safe part of town in decent condition
@@intotheblue970 my family lives in QRO so I have options in that state but I am hoping to find a place in CDMX. Remember it’s just a condo. In the total amount I’m not including HOA fees. I would fathom it’s possible to find something there.
@@intotheblue970 we were also thinking of Spain or Istanbul for Europe
@@chasingtheAmericanDream La piedad has beach?
good one guys, business in mexico is definitely different!
@davebacon6194 yes it most certainly is! 😂
My wife is Mexican..they don't have an urgency like us Americans 😅😅😅
The real Americans are the brown people of Mexico, Nicaragua, Venezuela, Bolivia, etc.
They most certainly don't! but that a good thing, right? 😂
