Mr. Robert, that's an UNBELIEVABLE Rental rate! Wow, for all that beauty is just shocking! The floors and furniture--simply stunning! Celeste, in the A-T-L ☘️
Robert your content is phenomenal. The people you interview are down to earth people. I commend all of you expats living in another country. I feel too old to relocate. Mexico offers so much more than the US. I envy and highly admire and respect you all who have relocated from the United States to another country. Until the last two years I always was under the impression Mexico is dangerous and I would not travel there. Now watching RUclips channels about Americans relocating to Mexico, we have been brainwashed. The culture, the food, the way of life, in Mexico is much better than living here in the US. I could not take the humidity, but I would consider living in Ensenada. Sending you and your lovely family Holiday Wishes.
I have watched the videos of other RUclipsrs who have moved to Mexico and Merida is where most of them began their journey and then they moved on to other cities such as Chapala, Guadalajara, Mexico City, Oaxaca. Many of them mention Merida being very hot and humid.
Saw one in Cuenca Ecuador very much like this with a maids quarters as well fully furnished with much more elaborate furnishings in a gated 24 hour secured compound for the same money. -- They exist in Colombia too.
Saw your video this morning while I was getting ready for work. I am looking forward to be in Mexico sometime next year. We are looking at houses in the North part just like the video today. I have been watching all your videos from day of one 🙂
@@nomore5403We live in Silicon Valley and a room is $1800 a month. My father is from Zacatecas Mexico 🇲🇽 and I am definitely going to show him your channel. I am so happy enjoying their lives in Mexico. 🪶🙏🏼🪶
I like you RUclips videos..thanks so much. I can relate to your thinking 😊 I hope to move to Yucatán peninsula before the first of the year. You often speak of moving to where the locals. That makes sense to me. I have also been studying the Google Earth Pro. Trying to define those hidden area where the locals live and not Expats. I am older person in my upper 70’s. So I am not quite as flexible as I once was. I will need some help, but not a lot, I want a furnished apartment. Keep up the great work with the videos! Barry
I’m a retired U.S. Navy Veteran. I been living in Merida for 17 months now. I’m planning on going to the Philippines as soon as all the Covid restrictions are lifted.
@@HM3Corpsman I’m doing good, I like Merida it is a safe place to live. But if you are single man, and want to meet beautiful woman, Merida is not the place. That’s why I chosen to go to the Philippines.
Good, informative follow-up video of Robert and his family. At some point? I suspect you'll get new mics; your platform will require it; that current mic is doing overtime and needs some relief, lol!
This has been one of my favorite videos from you..I've seen a progression in Robert. More open..positive energy! Listen if your wife watches football, invite me over!!! Football fanatic here! Great job guys🧡
43:55 My superpower, I never get tired of Mexican food, because I'm Mexican American! Muahahahaha. I love beans and tortillas. Hahahah. Grew up on them as a kid so.. 😂👌
I don't know what it is, but it's challenging for me to find places here that serve beans. Now they got this 'liquid' bean stuff but not many places be serving beans. Now when i was in Colombia, beans were EVERYWHERE. It's been challenging for me because I absolutely LOVE beans!
@@MoveAbroadandThrive hmm. That's interesting. My family is from Guadalajara, so we are used to refried beans. I have been Salvadoran family, and they eat liquid blended red beans, I always found that strange. Hahaha. I guess that region of Mexico eats blended beans. Interesting.
thank you again for a great video please keep sharing all of this valuable information and FYI in California my pedicure and tip equal 40.00-50.00 all of you look peaceful and happy
In the islands they tend to try to keep the electric bill down by limiting the air conditioners. Hardly any central air will you find and if they have it they don't use it. In the Bahamas they will have air in the bedrooms and you go in and out the bedrooms to get cool. The electric bills can make you do things we Americans think crazy.
Great video as all of them are. My question is regarding moving your furniture from the states. Are there any moving companies that will move you from the states to Mexico?
You can buy beautiful custom made furniture for dirt cheap. You will end up paying over $10,000us just to ship just a few of your big things to Merida. Ask around and people will tell you it's better to sell everything and just pack some suitcases or large containers with things you need. You will end up saving money furnishing your new home with all new things. Buena suerte!
What’s up with these consulates not answering their phones? Trying to get our residency status started before we leave in September. Any help is graciously accepted! 💕
They don't have that many ac untis or fans in their homes in MX because that electric bill gon be high as GP!! That's another thing people need to consider.
Yes. It can get costly. Many others have been able to keep their bill low. Mine hangs around about $350 (USD) every 2-months, so it averages about $125/mo
We installed 24 solar panels as soon as we moved in to mitigate high CFE bills. We now pay 45 pesos every 2 months. Renting can be fraught with not so good surprises!
I live in Ensenada and the weather is perfect year round. Think San Diego weather, that's often been called some the best worldwide climates to live in. Comfortably warm enough during the day so you can spend your days outside and cool enough at night to need a light blanket during summer to sleep great at night. In Winter daylight highs are usually in the 70's with nights getting cold and down into the 40's and low 50's. My landlord says electric bills run around $7.00us per month. I live two miles to the beach and harbor malecon and spend $600us that includes my electric and all other utilities, cable and internet, drinking water with maid and laundry service. You can call me Rey...that's King in Spanish!
@38:30 Wow!! You can get a 4yr visa simply for being a frequent visitor to Mexico? How does that work? Do you need a minimum number of stamps or something?
Not exactly. For this particular visa, you'd need to have at least two visits to Mexico prior to 2021. Each year the dates move up. So in 2023, I'd qualify for this visa because two visits prior to 2022 would be the new requirement. No income or employment required for this visa.
Just one visit between 2015-2020 is enough for the RDV program at the INM office in Mérida. They must find you in the system, they don’t look at the stamps in your passport. The other condition is that your FMM must expire while you’re IN México, so try to get one as short as possible! I was granted 90 days on my last visit even though I asked for a short one, but I just hopped on the ADO to Chetumal to cross into Belize to get another one since that border is strict and only gives 7 days FMMs to discourage eternal tourists doing border runs. Then you just have to fill the forms, go to the bank to pay the fine for the expired FMM, the INM fees (depending on how many years you want for your temp residency, up to 4 years) and go to the office for your intake appointment. I walked out the next day with my residency card last month! 🤗💳 I hear the INM offices in Progreso and Campeche are less busy but I’m not sure if the requirements are the same. The best part is that you don’t need to submit things like proof of income, a letter from your employer, etc to apply for residency on the RDV program: the agents are lovely and some speak English, but you can also hire a facilitator to walk you through the process (you shouldn’t pay more than about 300$ for a facilitator). At the end of the 4 years, I’ll just have to go back to INM and get my permanente. Voilà! 🤔🤗💪🏻🇲🇽 www.gob.mx/tramites/ficha/regularizacion-migratoria-por-tener-documento-vencido-o-realizar-actividades-no-autorizadas/INM792
Would visits in the early 2000s count? I still have a stamp in my old passport from January 2001, Mérida airport. I may even still have some old tourist cards from 2000-2003 or '04.
Hello great interview and content, thank you. Very interesting. Question: what is the price for the trading course? Where do I find that? Does anyone know? Thank you.
Thank you! My house will be paid off and I wondered why I would pay rent elsewhere. Thinking of renting my home and moving for the lifestyle improvements.
@@karladanielshooper2622 Some people don’t want the hassle of home ownership such as repairs, finding a good property manager while living in another country so they sell and rent.
@@MoveAbroadandThrive watching your videos. Wanting to move there asap. However i do not meet the income level. Will be visiting in october if not sooner. Can i live there for 3 months
You are so lucky living in a bog house like this. In USA Only reach people can afford to have a housem like those one. The houses in USA are super small.
this couple work remotely for call center collecting USA pay rate living in a traditional village in central mexico state and wow they live a pharaonic life style, now i wonder how they can afford to travel all over the world.
I love the convenience you often talk about and that's what I need being a single man. But I think the drow back is finding companionship because fear most often I probably won't find single friends most would be with family. I just have not heard anyone finding companionship there maybe you can touch that subject or interview someone who has some experience information 🤔❓
Great topic idea. I'll see what I can find. Men don't seem to have issues finding companions. The ones I hear most saying they can't find love here are the females (for a variety of reasons, much of which men tend not to care about, so it's much easier for them to find companions). With the women, it's much of ... 1. I'm not dating a man who earns less than me (yes, they say that while choosing to move to a place where the economics are much different than the US). But I'll dig deeper into this. I see plenty of foreign men dating locals.
This is just an assumption, but I'm gonna go out on a limb and say in many cases, the owner simply don't have the funds to get it cleaned up. So they use some of the deposit money to get it done.
@@MoveAbroadandThrive they're too lazy ....they already have cleaning supplies at home (broom, mop, rags, soap, water) all they need is some sweat equity to clean their property up.
@@pearlperlitavenegas2023 Some they are some don't but is the culture of if you rent the place you clean it... wrong approach but its the way they think
Can you talk with my husband? I think his biggest apprehension is that he will not be able to do anything in another country. Also he is not seeing a lot of black males in Mexico. He is currently a chef and we own a restaurant but we want him to move from that because he works so hard in that industry. I will book a consultation with you both. 🤑
The house seems nice but I'm concerned about them not being kept clean at least moderately between occupants. However, this seems like a great deal of space at a greatly affordable price. I didn't notice GFI s in kitchen and bathrooms. Also wondering how the concrete walls fair in hot and cold weather? It seems like they're settling in and living affordably. Because of the cost in bringing your own furniture I'm wondering is it best to rent unfurnished or furnished places. It's a gradual process adapting. I agree learning the language is beneficial. Having temporary residency helps you to feel more stable. Working remotely seems essential so you have to establish that first and or have substantial savings. Good to hear there are food options also I like cooking. I agree walking or bike riding is is ideal to explore and meet people. Glad he's enjoying the neighborhood. Informative video .
Wow... U have a great eye! I had to go look in my kitchen and bathroom to see about the GFIs. Now, most properties are not as dirty as his was upon his initial visit. This was not the norm from my experience. But, you will occasionally run on some real dirty ones. From what I've observed, the place is cleaned fairly well by the tenant who left previously and the place may sit empty for a short time and bugs make their way in and the place may be extra dusty but that's about it. Dead bugs may be laying around due to them leaving windows open so the house can breathe. Regarding furnished/unfurnished. You can usually find better deals unfurnished and in some cases, the deals are significant. It really depends on what your goals are. For some, renting furnished for about 6 months may be ideal to ensure they will be here and stay before they go buying all that stuff.... Cause like i mentioned, folks think they wanna live here and then they miss family and go back home.
The thick mampostería walls are perfectly adapted over centuries to the local weather... which is HOT. There’s no such thing as cold, or even mild, in Mérida! Unless you’re talking about the ice in your margarita 😬😎🥵
Mr. Cartess, you should make a video doing Karate. I want to learn Karate from you. There are people in my life that annoy me and I want to kick them upside the head.
Wifey not convinced Mexico is a good move… she is OK with visiting for a week (maybe) but can’t see living there. I’m retired now and wanna make that move, but she ain’t having it.

This is just an assumption, but I'm gonna go out on a limb and say in many cases, the owner simply don't have the funds to get it cleaned up. So they use some of the deposit money to get it done.
@@MoveAbroadandThrive they're too lazy ....they already have cleaning supplies at home (broom, mop, rags, soap, water) all they need is some sweat equity to clean their property up.
Differnt culture, values, priorities and ways of life.
It is what it is is the mantra for a successful move to Mexico.
@@pearlperlitavenegas2023 Some they are some don't but is the culture of if you rent the place you clean it... wrong approach but its the way they think
Do they have a mustang mach e electric car? Because we have this car and it says it was made in Mexico.
He currently drives a Lexus
@@MoveAbroadandThrive yea I know I was asking in Mexico do they have Mustang mach e electric cars?
Can you talk with my husband? I think his biggest apprehension is that he will not be able to do anything in another country. Also he is not seeing a lot of black males in Mexico. He is currently a chef and we own a restaurant but we want him to move from that because he works so hard in that industry. I will book a consultation with you both. 🤑

what Mexican insurance company is he with... and is this north or south merida?
This is up in the North. Hopefully he'll chime in and can answer the insurance company.
Rob and Carla! I'm waiting for my invite to the BBQ (the other Carla)

The house seems nice but I'm concerned about them not being kept clean at least moderately between occupants. However, this seems like a great deal of space at a greatly affordable price. I didn't notice GFI s in kitchen and bathrooms. Also wondering how the concrete walls fair in hot and cold weather? It seems like they're settling in and living affordably. Because of the cost in bringing your own furniture I'm wondering is it best to rent unfurnished or furnished places. It's a gradual process adapting. I agree learning the language is beneficial. Having temporary residency helps you to feel more stable. Working remotely seems essential so you have to establish that first and or have substantial savings. Good to hear there are food options also I like cooking. I agree walking or bike riding is is ideal to explore and meet people. Glad he's enjoying the neighborhood. Informative video .
Wow... U have a great eye! I had to go look in my kitchen and bathroom to see about the GFIs. Now, most properties are not as dirty as his was upon his initial visit. This was not the norm from my experience. But, you will occasionally run on some real dirty ones. From what I've observed, the place is cleaned fairly well by the tenant who left previously and the place may sit empty for a short time and bugs make their way in and the place may be extra dusty but that's about it. Dead bugs may be laying around due to them leaving windows open so the house can breathe. Regarding furnished/unfurnished. You can usually find better deals unfurnished and in some cases, the deals are significant. It really depends on what your goals are. For some, renting furnished for about 6 months may be ideal to ensure they will be here and stay before they go buying all that stuff.... Cause like i mentioned, folks think they wanna live here and then they miss family and go back home.
What are GFI ?
The thick mampostería walls are perfectly adapted over centuries to the local weather... which is HOT. There’s no such thing as cold, or even mild, in Mérida! Unless you’re talking about the ice in your margarita 😬😎🥵
THE SPANISH GRAMMAR HAS A DIFFERENT FORMAT, THAT'S WHY IT LOOKS DIFFICULT, BUT WE ALL GOT USED TO THAT.
Mr. Cartess, you should make a video doing Karate. I want to learn Karate from you. There are people in my life that annoy me and I want to kick them upside the head.
hahaha ... there are a few folks i'd love to kick upside their head lol
Oh, I didn't know that Mr. Cartess are training karate. What style?
Slow Life Trading huh? Sounds interesting. I think I'll check it out.
$50/day doesn't sound great though.
It's way more than $50/day (not the whole story). I didn't really understand it in the beginning

Utilities are subsidized; the real cost should be much higher.
Wow.

You guys are not retired?
Wifey not convinced Mexico is a good move… she is OK with visiting for a week (maybe) but can’t see living there. I’m retired now and wanna make that move, but she ain’t having it.
You could have bought cabinets from IKEA and then take them with you when you leave.
