Beautiful house. ❤️ Love the setup. Do you pay for pest control to come out to the house? How much is your rent for this house?
I paid in Florida $125 a month each to a yard guy and a pool guy.
$250 a month total.
The lawn guy only mowed once a week. No trimming or weed pulling.
The pool guy vacuumed the pool and put in chemicals once a week.
And I wonder why it cost us $5500 a month to live.
For just the basics.
No dinner out or social life.
$5500 just to keep thinks running.
Now we live on $2500-$3000 per month in Mexico.
But, we no longer have to work.
We have a social life.
We eat better than we ever have.
We’re trying to not beat ourselves up for not coming to Mexico 5 years earlier.
*** translate on my phone means Ive never had a problem asking for anything in Spanish while we’re studying and learning
Wow!!! That's what I'm talking about! People don't believe this can be their reality. Thank u for sharing!
@belltowndaisy This is the best comment in this thread ya'll. Read this!
I'm so happy for you and your family! I too am seriously contemplating moving to Merida!
I love watching your videos, since my stroke 3 years ago my dream of visiting other parts of the world are no longer a dream but you have given me access to experience it from my recliner and the nuances of the culture compared to the U.S. is what I am really interested in not a brochure of pretty pictures that don't tell the reality of a stranger in a strange country.
Love this!!🎉🎉❤❤🎉🎉
This home has everything hands down! When I move I definitely will be looking for an exact match. Solar panels are a must have!
Beautiful choice of furniture! Beautiful home…y’all are wonderful people…helping others the way that you do….All the best🙏🏾❣️🙏🏾
The home is so beautiful. The backyard is your own oasis.
Wow, very nice!
A Beautiful Life! ❤ Congratulations!
Your house is awesome 👍😎.
Beautiful job.
Happy to see Kim has made the adjustment to the Yucatan I'm glad she's happy
😇😇😇
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉Congratulations on this fantastic home! Your efforts have paid off gloriously. I'm here in NYC wanting to make this move. Hopefully, I'll be in touch soon with $ for a conciliation! You and Tianiki give life. ❤❤❤ THANK YOU 🌟
Your house is beautiful Cartess. I’m sure the girls are enjoying having their own rooms.
Happy you found that house with solar.
Enjoyed seeing Kim being silly.
You have great videos. Thank you for sharing.
Thank u Diana
Beautiful 🤩 That backyard with the fans, pool and privacy is daily resort living. May you and the family enjoy many moments of rejuvenating your mind, body and soul. People really need to let it sink in that living a beautiful and peaceful life is the goal. Your home is your sanctuary and Cartess what you have achieved is admirable ❤
Thank u for your kind words. Much appreciated.
The house is beautiful! You do need an LP gas detector. It is really common here for gas fittings to corrode and leak. If you are downstairs, you’ll probably smell it, but if everyone is sleeping you might not notice. In the rental house I lived in, I had to evacuate during the middle of the night when a propane line to the stove sprung a leak. I only found out because the neighbor came home late and could smell it outside my house. When the gas guy arrived, he found several leaks in the brand new house. He showed me which lp gas detector to buy on Amazon and instructed me to plug it into the closest electrical outlet to the stove and as low as possible. Sure enough, a week after fixing the leaks and installing the gas detector, it went off in the middle of a work call. This time, the oven had started leaking. The water filtration you have for the laundry is really cool. What brand is that? I’ve never seen one, but it seems like a really good idea to have that.
Ahh, great advise and thanks for that detail you shared. I didn't even think about that. Thank u
You go, Caress w that Spanish greeting. Love it. Beautiful, beautiful home; that POOL, YES!... and Kim, always, always good to see you. Love to see u laughing and being silly 🤣.
🤣.🤣.🤣. Thank u
The house is Gorgeous 🎉🎉❤ so happy for your family!! 😊🎉😊🎉
Absolutely beautiful! Enjoy!
Thank you so much!
I think no service work allowed on a holiday is a great rule and something I would appreciate. These are the little things that I see that make life in Mexico more balanced and enjoyable and why I want to move there. Keep the info coming!😊
I agree. I’m in the USA and I’ve rolled my eyes when neighbors cut grass on Mother’s Day, Father’s Day and honestly Sunday in general. Some days just need to be a guaranteed day of peace. No shade to you Cartess. Seems like a holiday you were not familiar with. 🥰
@@PeaceforLisa I can definitely appreciate it, but longterm, when it comes to purchasing a house, I'll still want as many freedom/flexible options that i can have.
I can definitely appreciate it now for sure. Just thrown back with the unexpected. Which is why it's important for one to know exactly what they're getting into when buying houses
@@MoveAbroadandThrive I currently live on an acre in a No HOA communityi in the USA. I’m terrified for my home value. I live in a cove where folks have lakefront homes. Cartess not err’body is respectful of neighborhood integrity. One family does cut their grass and they park cars on that uncut grass. Another family has a huge unsightly structure on their lot with a huge blue tarp. Two homes are killing the value of the otherwise gorgeous neighborhood. Some folks need rules 😂 But I do get wanting to live in a community without rules.
People complain aaout barking dogs, car alarms. Is that a problem there ?
Beautiful ❤
Beautiful house! Love the backyard
I love it Cartess! Congrats to you and the family!
Thanks so much!!
Really nice Mr. Ross🌄🦍❤️
Ya, the rules are the same for our privada. They collect amazon deliveries at the gate and let us know, so that is nice. We never miss a delivery :)
Put the two couches facing each other, move your 'office where one couch is. (get a table built/what you need, like) free up table for family 🙂
Mr. Ross your home looks peaceful and lovely...Would you consider making the servant's room your office?
Beautiful home, congratulations
Thank you so much!
Very nice house!
I really love the home and neighborhood thus far from what you've shown. The backyard is amazing!!! I love the greenery. So, the Purvadia rules are similar to HOA's. huh? I am really looking forward to exploring Merida next year. I look forward to meeting you.
Greetings Cartess! Wonderful video, very informative! Wish you could share the monthly cost on this property.

Beautiful home! The yard is lovely! Those are not bamboo trees but Areca Palms maybe. Looking forward to more videos! I have a lot to catch up on. Glad you are still in Merida area❤
Ahhh, thanks for the clarification on the trees. I didn't know what those things were, lol...

Thank you so much! I appreciate your kind words!
Your house is beautiful Cartess.
I agree with Kim about the painting. When you were looking at the house I thought that I would take that down immediately. Lol.
😇😇😇
I Love your new house!!
Beautiful home. Beautiful neighborhood
Thank you!
Sheesh, 10 dollars for grass cut sounds nice! I pay 65 dollars a visit where i'm at in America and they visit twice a month.
Is the pravada fee included in the rent? And i forgot what u said yr rent is .
Thx for another grest video.
Wonderful house and awesome that u have solar panels so u can run your a/c. :)
Nice crib brother saludos desde queretaro mx
Thank u mucho!! Queretaro is an awesome place. I hope you're enjoying it as much as i did when i was there. It almost became our home, lol
I remember the house tour for this one
😇😇😇
Cada vez que tengo la oportunidad. Every chance I get.
Hello, family I loveee your home beautiful and you got a great deal when u found this house congrats🎉
Thank you so much 🤗
@@MoveAbroadandThrive your welcome
When I say BEAUTIfUL… Thank you Cartess. I love that area.
Muchas gracias. You are too kind
Thanks. Is there a gate to come in the house? I dont see the bars on the windows....... Gated community? seems open, see cars going by. Curious. (*trying to learn)
Thanks for your tours! Do you have a partner who helps folks find housing in your areas or are you independent? I would imagine you have a partnership with all that is involved in the services you provide.
what a great home Cortez it has everything a family need enclosed in safety and rest
Your house is LOVELY! Do you find the sprinkler system are bringing more mosquitoes than usual? if you had a choice would keep it or opt out? Do you think the bamboo plants/trees might bring in snakes since you are "out in the country". Do you think critters will crawl in you sewer system and into your toilet since you are now in the country? Just wondering because CONKAL is high on my list.
Great questions! I would keep the sprinklers since the water cost no more money with it coming from a well. It'll keep the grass green, the shrubs/plants looking nice and trees alive (cause it gets hot and outside of rainy season, it don't rain much), so i would opt for the sprinkler. I can't say i notice much more mosquitos with the sprinkler because it's only on for 30-minutes and it turns on in the morning, so the water is dried up by the time I wake up. I can't imagine too much snakes where we're situated inside of this privada (now if i were in the sticks and living in a house where I'm secluded, I'd probably expect to see more snakes, but i don't see that being too much of an issue where I'm at now).I hope not to see any critters in my toilet, lol... Haven't had that situation since being here 2 1/2 years (fingers crossed)
@@MoveAbroadandThrive Great info. I will keep that in mind. I am digging Conkal.
I missed the cost of the rent?? How much I ve been living in D.R ..10 years
Wow, Cartess!! This house is beautiful...What is the rent for a house like this? Just asking...I will be calling you in the next two weeks for a consultation...Thanks for the video. I can't wait to see more videos on how to find apartments and houses...I love your videos
$24,000 pesos (which is about $1,400 USD). I opted for the higher budget to find a larger place w/ solar panels so my electric bill would be ZERO (last place my bill got ridiculous and I wanted to be somewhere so i can run my air freely and without worry). That rent includes a gardener coming out to cut the grass and maintain the trees and plants, etc... Trash included through December 31st. No electricity (she threw in her rental car with only 6,000 miles on it for $3000 pesos per month), w/ insurance included. I was previously paying $12,000 pesos for a rental through one of the rental companies, so my numbers balanced out and saved me a ton by living here, plus getting. a much larger house, with pool and the amenities that come with the neighborhood, which you'll see in the next video coming out.
Nice content, Cartess. Your home is really nice and spacious. Enjoy!🙋🏾♀️ (Wow, $10-$15!!!…I pay $80 every two weeks for lawn service.😩)
Oh wow! Definitely much more affordable out in these parts of the world
Wow!!!! Beautiful home like beverly hills but in mexico 😊 you did extremely well for yourself and family
Thank you so much!
Your wife is silly! I cracked up when you caught her in the window. $10 for the gardener! I need your guy because my guys charge me $20 and I don't have nearly as much as you .At least you can sit outside at night, that is wonderful. The tarantula (2nd one) rules my yard. Oh, I have some citronella oil for your Tiki torches when you feel like grabbing it from me. I got it by mistake.
How much is your rent?
Yes a nice home,but I think for mexico it's expensive
Cartess, that's Noice! 😄
Thanks! 😄
Is a pravada like a subdivision with an HOA?
In this case, yes. There are different types of privadas and they come in all sizes, types and shapes, jejeje. This one costs about $75/month extra and includes 3 large pools spaced throughout the property. A full size gym for workouts (you'll be blown away how large this one is and all of the equipment inside). Also has multiple little parks within the community. Several tennis courts, soccer play areas, walking paths, 24-hour guard at the front, etc... A big huge conference room to use to host parties at no extra costs. I'll be showing it in the next few videos.
13:23😂
I’m with Kim!!! Lol. I know exactly what she’s talking about
lol
I didn't know you were still in Mexico, did everything work out OK with your daughter? Last time I saw you, you were leaving due to being unable to get help with her health issues.
Es bonito, 😍. You guys have a beautiful home. And the language shouldn't be that much trouble because technology has made it possible to communicate. So while your learning to hablo español, you can still communicate effectively. No reason to not try.
Thank you so much 🤗
But is it wine in those bottles ? Lol
They drank it all before we got here, lol
It's ok the house is beautiful!! Congrats again!
This home is absolutely gorgeous! I can't wait to arrive in Merida in December
Muchas gracias... December is right around the corner. You'll be here before you know it!
