My
background is engineering. Engineers tend to be conservative
and look at the worst case scenarios; rather than having
net rental income of $18,000 lets say you have income of
$16,000 USD. In this case you are left with $10,000 USD
after paying off your operating expenses and you still have
4 months a year to use your property. Add to this cash flow
the fact that there are a deficiency in the number of Cancun
Beachfront condos and the fact that new Beach Front properties
start at $300,000 USD and it is easy to see that you have
a very good
investment with little risk. Any loan interest you pay on
your Cancun property qualifies for a US Income Tax Deduction
just like a 2nd. home deduction.
Can I guarantee that your rental income will be exactly this?
-no. Is this the right investment for everyone? -Of course
not. Wise persons know there are few certainties in life-besides
taxes and death.
This financial model is based on past rental history and Cancun's
undeniable allure.
Wise investors know that income producing real estate in a
highly desirable location is solid foundation for an investment
plan.
Few predicted the disaster of 9-11. It is a fact that world
travel decreased immediately following this horrible act of
mass murder. The US recovered and international travel recovered.
Is there a safer place than the Caribbean from terrorism?
I don't think so. I pray that all terrorists will be stopped
and that the entire world will be free of this madness.
Until that time come and enjoy the peace, tranquility and
security of this Caribbean paradise. This is not only a good
financial investment but an investment in the quality of your
life.
Cancun beachfront condominiums will predictably produce a
positive cash flow for you because:
01. Cancun is
one the most traveled beach destinations in the world .
02. Cancun and
Playa are the fastest growing areas in the world. Cancun in
less than 3.5 hours from most US cities. Cancun has a modern
health system that accepts US health insurance.
03. Cancun has
incomparable natural beauty, the Best Beaches, Clubs, Hotels,
and Restaurants.
04. Their are
more activities and places to explore in the Cancun area.
The Mayans built one many ancient cities and pyramids in the
area. In fact the largest pyramid outside of Egypt is located
in the Cancun area.
05. Cancun is
the gate way to many other nearby Caribbean places of interest.
Playa del Carmen is 40 miles south, Tulum is 50 miles, Belize
is a 5 hour drive. The entire Western Caribbean Island Chain
and Cuba are a short plane trip away.
06. Cancun will
most likely offer Casino Gambling very soon. When this happens
expect the local condominiums to instantly increase in value.
Yes even more people will travel to Cancun.
07. I believe
a 10% appreciation rate is conservative. With 65 million Americans
retiring and many buying in Cancun, they will soon push Cancun
prices to US prices of comparable properties. If this happens
the actual appreciation rate would be more like 25-40% over
the next few years.
Like any investment don't take my word alone. Read a book
on International Property Investments, a read book on trend's
of the 'Baby Boomers' and of course consult your tax accountant,
who probably knows nothing about International Property Investments,
but is a disclaimer I need to make. You don't have to be a
Genius like Warren Buffett to make money. Follow the leaders
like Citibank, Ford, Gm, HP, Hyatt, Marriot and the smart
US citizens who have been investing in Cancun and Playa.
Hope to see you there. We count our clients as friends and
business associates.
