- Are you looking for a house or apartment to rent? Send me an email and I can help you: contact@lakarencita.com
We were nearly scammed out of US$5500! How easy is it to rent a house in Mexico? How cheap is rent in Mexico? We share our house hunting journey with you in the beautiful city of Queretaro in the heart of Mexico so that you can avoid making the same mistakes as we did.
As Queretaro is a popular spot for people to retire in Mexico and one of the best places to live in Mexico, a lot of people ask us about moving to Mexico and how to find a house or apartment. But how much should you be paying for rent? Where can you find the cheapest houses and what paperwork do you need? It's quite daunting to rent a house in another country so I hope that our video is useful to anybody thinking about moving to Mexico.
We had a budget of US$500 a month for a furnished house or apartment, preferably close to Queretaro's historic center.
You'll see what documents we needed to provide to get a place and how easy it is to find somewhere to live in Mexico. This is the ultimate guide to how to find an apartment in Mexico.
If you are interested in moving to Mexico or retiring in Queretaro and you would like assistance in finding accommodation, please feel free to get in touch with us via my Facebook page and we'll be happy to help.

#Mexico #Queretaro #MoveToMexico
I've lived in the state of Jalisco for about 7 years now...Half the places I've lived in, the landlords were old school and did the transaction via a 'handshake', in 'good faith' (not recommended, btw 😄) or asked me to pay rent a year out in advance...still no contract 🤔 . I FINALLY found my dream place, in Cabo Corrientes, Jalisco, WITH an easy to understand contract, month-to-month, no strings agreement. I couldn't imagine jumping through the hoops you did on that first place. Also, for expats, Craigslist is still a good place to find apartmemts in our area (Puerto Vallarta). Hope you're enjoying your new home, you two! 😎✌🏼
We've been told that it tends to be a bit easier in places with more expats and that Queretaro is particularly complicated.
1:12 love, love, love this door
I think the problem is that you are looking for places that are too nice. This is not typical living in Mexico! You are probably dealing with property managers who are going to significantly inflate the price with all their "labor". You need to deal direct with an owner that is hungry for business. This means a lot more walking around and meeting people unfortunately - a lot more time. If you put down enough security deposit there really is not risk for the owner. How much would you need? I would think 1 month rent but maybe its more.
Still want to come to Queretaro? 😂

Recuerden que tienen que activar los subtítulos a Español. 🙂
Quite often the subtitles have no connection what is being said. I suppose the subtitle ap tries to record spoken speech and that is not easy. They don't do slang very well and sometimes the translations are hilarious.
We’re also in QRO and had issues finding a rental property. We ended up working out a long term deal with an Airbnb owner and got a discount due to the pandemic. Maybe we’ll see you around!
That probably was a better idea as you don't need to worry for all the services, do you?
Yeah, it'd be nice to meet you
wow wow wow!! Nice to see you here mr Dee, pulling resources from other youtubers
I’m in Merida. I signed a 12 month lease and one months deposit. That’s it.
Hi what documents did they require? I was just in Merida and saw quite a few for rent signs
Thanks so much for another great video. I'm currently looking at taking a career break, renting out some property and moving somewhere nice and warm for a year or two. Every time I watch one of your videos I change my mind about where to go!
These guys just casually competing with House Hunters. Love it. Subbed!
I am moving to Queretaro, Mexico on November 2. I have always kept a Chicago, Oak Park, and Waukegan as my bases, but I did live in Acapulco as a second home. The earthquakes and hurricanes were the deal breakers. Acapulco will always be the most beautiful city, that I have ever visited, and the people were super nice. USA was the most dangerous for me, and I was born here in 1942, and have been to all 50 states and around the world, on my own dime. It is better to give, than to receive, and my ancestors told me never beg for money, but WORK and help non beggars help themselves.
Thank you so much for your intelligent videos.
Good choice, it's better to have a little patience. The more houses you see the closer you get to what your really want.
In Puerto Vallarta, I signed a lease with a Deposit and last month's rent. I did have to show my passport. I think everywhere in Mexico it just depends on who you go through. I rented right from the owner. I avoided the agencies.
Thanks for sharing! Can you provide flthe name of the landlord that has rentals?
Would love to know what areas of queretaro are good to live in as far as safety, access to local markets & amenities, public transport, affordable. I know Centro is great, but what about surrounding areas? A video just on those different areas would be awesome! :)
Great video. Full of useful information. You did the right thing walking away from that house. I didn't know about the Pagares system. They have a similar system in the UAE when you borrow. You have to sign a check in the full amount to a bank when you borrow for a mortgage / car, etc. If you don't pay, writing a fraudulent check is a crime so you will get imprisoned in UAE. There are many abandoned cars at the Dubai airport as when people lose their jobs and have debt, they immediately flee the country.
You appear happy, so we are pleased you made an excellent choice for yourself - and you are well located, too
My husband and I LOVE your videos!! We would love to know more about the public health care in Queretaro, (IMSS and INSABI) It would be great to see a video about the two plans including seeing the hospitals, facilities and clinics for both IMSS and INSABI in Queretaro.
I bet yall are against free health care in the US? But wanna go to Mexico for your health problems.
@@Panchopantera530 what!!?? I am Canadian where we have "free" health care (we pay for it through taxes.) I have no opinion on the US's health care.
This video helps me much,I am going to work in Mexico, but I am still at a loss for things like renting a house, until I saw this video.Thanks!
I love the bloopers at the end🥰😆
Ive watched Jordan and Maggies Tangerine travel channel. They ran into this paperwork hassle in Quetetero too. Plus you have to purchase renters insurance which is expensive and a huge pain. However, they said that it was NOT the norm in other cities in Mexico where they've lived and rented. Just for that reason alone, I'd scratch Quetetero off my list.
It because my fiancé said they dont want alot of tourist
Mi sueño es hablar el idioma inglés y siento que tus videos me ayudan , saludos Karen 😃😃
Sí, estes videos ayudan a aprender inglés. Pero, si todavia no lo haces, va a los canales de mmmenglish, Learn English with Lucy, or Pronunciation with Emma. Somos profesores de inglés y usamos estes canales para dar un poco más a nuestros alunos.
What a crazy situation. Crossing Mexico off my list.
Saludos desde un municipio del Marqués de Querétaro
So glad you two can finally unpack properly. I agree with you Karen, it’s nice to see David, but I’m biased. :)
Yes. That's good. Let's see how it goes. We might want to go to another place before ending the contract 😂.
Yes. Dave decided to be on camera this time. Don't get used though 😅
My first time watching I liked your info
Sounds like a lot of paperwork to rent a house, I'm glad you turned down the house where they were asking for extra money (13th month).I Iove videos where you talk about different places in Mexico, the food, culture, places to see, history, etc.... Than you!
Oh wow! what a great video! I live in Sweden and pay about 11500 pesos for a two bedroom apartment.
Im mexican but I havent lived or visited Mexico in over 25 years. But your videos are rekindling that desire.
Thank you for sharing! ❤️
🤩🙏🏽
Love the video! I've been in Mexico for years and have always gone direct to the Mexican owners with mostly good results. All on the lower end 2500-3500 in guadalajara back in the day while living and working abroad. Then while living in the Lake Chapala area for 5 years, i was very lucky to have excellent Mexican landlords. 3500-4500. Small houses. I'm at a beach paying 8000. One year year lease with very good local landlady. Always go local and get the language? All the gmes and paperwork come from agencies. Common. I do not care for agencies but they may help many people. Something for everyone.
Any advice on how to find a small apt for someone who's never been in the country ? I'm seriously contemplating moving to mexico but the fact that I've never been there and don't anyone there and don't know how to go about finding a place is scaring me..
Thanks. Awesome video
Great video and wow indeed so many docs! Re: ideas for videos - 1) How much it would cost for you to get some swimming in turqouise sea (ocean) water if you live in Queretaro :), all year
2) comparing climate in best places of Mexico (!! With temperature in Celcius also!)
3) Commuting in Mexican cities, towns (including Queretaro and a few other your favs), especially if one does not drive /public transpot and taxis.
4) history of mexican crafts (they are amazing! Like beadwork, textiles, pottery etc)
5) cost of airbnbs / options for 1-6-month rentals if one wants to come and live in Mexico for a few weeks/months and what docs are needed, best websites to find affordable nice options
I like the bloopers.
Que bonito¡!!!! Felicidades chicos !! No hemos podido coincidir pero les mandamos un abrazo enorme
sorry you lost the first place but I wouldn't have signed that document for $111K (furniture) either....good on you for not accepting the argument that "it's ok! just sign"....good you found a place as well. Hope all is well ☮️
Great job!! Great choice on the last house… crazy rules but hey it’s Mexico !
WOW, so many requirements! Here in Costa Rica it is just the 1st month rent and an equal deposit and you sign a one year contract which is pretty straight forward in its various clauses which are regulated by the Rental law.
How sweet to offer a hand! 🌹
Karecinta saludos a Uds a ti y a tu esposo! Son una agradable pareja...soy un suscriptor de Japon
Me alegro por el incremento de visitas. Me encanta tus vídeos! Me gustaría que nos mostrases bazares de artesanía, comida eco que vendan los propios productores o ferias de ese tipo que se realicen allí.
This is extremely helpful, thank you! I am amazed what some people ask for regarding rental requirements...
I really enjoy your videos. So sweet and friendly. I, like many, have a love of Mexico. Maybe I’ll meet you one day.
I'm glad you showed the Killer Klown Klan early on, at :42, to remind visitors to bring a seltzer bottle, squirting lapel flower and whoopie cushion with them as they walk the streets of Queretaro. Town motto: Always Leave 'Em Laughing.
You guys are awesome and really nice to offer such help to people. Btw, my dads from Queretero!! Hola!!
I thing they're selling help not giving help.
@@bmyra Really? Seriously?
@@Silvia-rp2dk Yeah. I think it's a business not a favor. They probably sell consultations. Ask them to be sure.
Well now im bummed, how could i be so naive, and at my age....lol. Oh well!
@@Silvia-rp2dk Aw don't be sad. Ask them. I don't know for sure. But lots of people charge for consultations. On the other hand there are a lot of people with channels giving (free) advice on moving to Mexico, and Queretaro. Like Backpacking Brunette for one.
que bien ver su video justo cuando busco mudarme a quretaro por un tiempo, no tengo aval ,podrían guiarme mas para lograr mi mudanza
Love your videos. We are getting ready to move to Mexico and use your videos as reference. We want to live in San Miguel de Allende and then Queretaro. Thank you for the info!! I better start looking for a property now
Pretty cool, loved your Chanel!
Hi! Im coming to cancun tomorrow. Lmk what you guys recommend to do, and if you want to have a tea!
I want to move to Mexico, not Queretaro, because I want to be near the beach. I don't have un aval but I still will move there and pray to be able to work around no having a guarantor, aval or fiador. You made the right decision. I like your final apartment best.
I've heard that the process might be different in other parts of the country, particularly in areas where there are a lot of foreigners already. Hopefully it won't be too stressful for you!
This was educational. I wish you showed more of the apartment but that's ok 👌
Can you share the name of your attorney please ?
Our daughter owns a house about 25-30 minutes outside of Queretero, so we are leaning that way.
I’m looking to rent soon. I’ll be reaching out from California. Thanks for your help 👍
Such a good video. I am worried about the Aval piece of things. This will be the first time we travel to Querétaro and we don't have property, family, or friends in town. We hope to find an option where this is not required
Many houses will accept a póliza jurídica which is an insurance that you can buy.
Rents have increased a lot in Querétaro since I made this video.
This place is sure becoming trendy amongst RUclipsrs living in Mexico.
We were here first! ruclips.net/video/dy8nhW4nH4A/видео.html
I like Karen's little dance. ,❤️
This is very helpful information. Thank you.
Thank you for sharing this as I found it to be very helpful
a bit complicated. thank you guys!👍🏼👍🏼
Karen, what a lovely video. You two are awesome but be careful - i think your husband is going to steal the spotlight! Congrats! Now Ann Marie and I know where to find you! Brendan
Thanks for all your information!
You need to stop by Restaurante Maria Dolores in Historic district. It has nice selection of coffees that you can purchase that he will grind for you. Plus a very flavorful inexpensive menu. I liked it for the atmosphere. Just what an old cantina should look like.
Thank you. I like the idea of going to an old cantina
Soy aleman y tenía una casa con tres pisos, 2 baños, amueblado y mega cable y muy céntrico en San Miguel de Allende sin contado por 3800 MXN por mes. No paper work at all! El mismo en la Ciudad de México, no deposito ni nada. Reference?? Por favor!
🤔 hispanohablante y residente? 😉
I love your videos karen and i wanted ask you if you could make a video about the immigration law change, my wife and I are retired and we are planning to move back to Mexico afte
I love to see markets,beaches,etc....
Really videos. Maybe you can mention any golf course homes and private bilingual schools. Thinking of retirement there. Thanks
Aquí en Reynosa las rentas de casas de dos habitaciones un baño anda alrededor de 1500 pesos ( 75 dolaritos) por mes. Por eso se me hace muy costoso la renta en Querétaro
Es muy costoso en Querétaro. Aunque está casa está en el centro. Se pueden encontrar de precio más bajo pero en las afueras

Queretans are milking the cow.
For 2 months I rented a very nice, old but renovated house on Andador Progreso.
What a great idea to speak in English and caption in Spanish:) Just subscribed. Is Queretaro near the beach? Wanting to move close to the beach and hoping to come later this year when things open up.
That’s why it’s a nice area
It sounds like going local is the best way find the area you like and walk around. Don't get into the scams.
Gracias Karencita 👍👍👍
My only guarantor is Benjamin Franklin. His picture is on the $100US bill.
Thank you, this really helped
Color,fun,good food,....Yes! 😎👍
Jajajajajajajajaja...those out takes!!! jajajajaja...super chistosos.
I'm confused I saw another video that said it was very easy to rent an apartment or house in Mexico. All you do is come up with the money. What if you are willing to pay one or two years in advance?
Is it only this complicated to rent a home in Queretaro or does it apply to Mexico in general? Seems very intimidating especially for someone not fluent in Spanish. Is there a government department that regulates or mediates for tenants and landlords?
Tanya, I've watched Tangerine travels since their inception. When they got to Queretaro they did encounter more requirements than other cities.
¿Que significa pocha? Asi dices en la seccion "About" en tu canal.
Is there running water 24/7???
I don't want to have to worry about water, that's my only requirement.
Thank you very much! Very nice!
LA TRANSCRIPCIÓN ESTÁ EN ESPAÑOL , GRACIAS !!!
Ok Karencita, our shortlist is-
Queretero
Guanajuato
Oaxaca
Puebla
Why would you tell us we should pick Queretero ? Thank you so much...we love your videos !
I think Guanajuato is my favourite city in Mexico. It's absolutely gorgeous. It is very touristy, though. Guanajuato state in general is in a bad situation with regards to organised crime so outside of Guanajuato city centre, I wouldn't feel so safe. It's also smaller than Querétaro.
Oaxaca is beautiful and cheap with great food. It's not as developed as Querétaro and it's more isolated as there are a lot of jungles and mountains separating it from other places, particularly to the south.
Puebla is nice. It didn't leave a lasting impression when I visited but the centre is lovely and the food was good. I've heard safety is a bit of an issue there, too.
I'm glad to live in Queretaro because I think it offers everything you need. It's safe, which is obviously very important. It's also very easy to travel to nearby towns if you want a change. The food isn't as good as some other parts of Mexico but there are a lot of restaurants offering food from other regions.
Oh my God! I would live in those places as well.
Let me tell you a bit from my perspective:
Guanajuato: it's a beautiful, historic and colonial city (I like it more than Querétaro) but I've heard traffic gets a little bit complicated for where the city is.
It's smaller than Querétaro but very international (it's more touristy than Queretaro I think)
2. Oaxaca: I'm in love with this city. I'm not there just because the Internet connection isn't as great as in Querétaro (I need to have an excellent connection to teach online). It can be cheaper than Queretaro.
3. Puebla: It's a lovely city. I just went once so, I don't know if I could live there to be honest.
@@LaKarencitaMX
Thx ! Tough decision but since our youngest daughter has a house just 25-30 minutes outside of Queretero...that may get the nod !
Gracias Karen !
Good information about documents. I'm a Brit living in California and I'm guessing hubby is 90% British with a touch of South african.. Am I right ?
I’ve lived in several places and something I’ve noticed is that rental scams seem to be pretty common here in Querétaro. I live near Galindas and I can say you dodged a bullet there as it can flood
Terrible requirements. You made the perfect decision.
Karencita's husband has to be from the same part of England as Tio Paul from the True Mexico channel. Their accents are almost identical.
I know some apartment buildings do not allow Airbnb in Queretaro but if they are long term (28 days or more) can they legally stop you from renting airbnb monthly? You can rent from real estate agency monthly so not sure why i am hearing that they can prohibit VRBO or AIRBNB rentals. Just wanted to know if you know the legalities.
I am interested in green neighborhoods. Parks, lots of trees.
You guys picked a great house! That’s the one I would’ve chosen! It’s beautiful! Where geographically is your city located in Mexico? Are you close to any beaches? Are they on the Pacific, Caribbean or Gulf side? 🏝🏄🏽♀️🥑
We live in Queretaro in central Mexico. We love it here but the disadvantage is that the beaches are far away. If you want to find out more, I made this video about the city: ruclips.net/video/O2tcafBfn9g/видео.html.
A lot off Tsunamis are coming along many American Continent coasts; now is not the time to be on the coastal areas.
If you don't have a guarantee to co sign can you just pay a year upfront?
Buena decisión por el precio si pueden hacer un vídeo de apartamento studio para mi solo pues me quiero mudar para Mexico pero que sea económico por lo menos $200 y $250 lo agradezco lo que puedan ayudarme gracias 👏🙏👍
When we rent in Queretaro, we want to pay for the 12 months up front. Will this help us?
Where can I find the list of rentals I saw you looking at?
I'm learning Spanish, but I am a long way from being conversational. Can I get by with my limited Spanish while I'm still learning?
Wowowow it’s seem like it’s so much in that city to rent I never see no other videos with that much requirement it seem like it’s getting hard and harder.... I am going to Cancun on a one way ticket and travel around Mexico 🇲🇽
You can always rent an Airbnb and it's much easier. It's possible to negotiate but in Queretaro, everybody asks for all of these documents as standard.
Is it possible to avoid the guarantor requirement by paying a lump sum for the entire lease term up front? I’m not willing to get a guarantor, nor be someone else’s guarantor.
Wow. Renting a house in this area sounds like such a hassle. Hahaha. I guess you just gotta find the right place, and owners.
i make $1,100 monthly ssdi..is it possible to live comfortably in a good neighborhood on that inacome?
I'm very impressed
I have a question, how good can you live on 10k US a month in Mexico?
Wtf lol
Looks like before even considering a place to rent, you need to get a list of the paperwork requirements.
Did you find that you had to put down a higher security deposit + póliza jurídica if you don't have a guarantor? Do they ask or check your US credit?
We don't have US credit because neither of us are from the US.
We were never asked to pay a higher deposit. Everyone seems to ask for a póliza juridica if you don't have a guarantor but we didn't end up needing one for the house we rented in the end.
Hola, cuanto cobran por vender una casa, yo vivo en jurica pero ya me aburrio Querétaro y ya me voy a vivir a un lugar con humedad.
I recognize your house!
What are house prices like in Centro....??
