East Cape Real Estate | The Ultimate Buyers Guide
East Cape Real Estate | The Ultimate Buyers Guide
The East Cape is the future of development in Baja California Sur, it is the most desirable but undeveloped area, where you can experience the true Baja Lifestyle. In terms of Real Estate, there is a little bit of everything for everyone. From lots to build your custom home or just to secure a nice spot near the beach for the imminent future, to luxury homes ready to go right in front of the beach. You can find really nice homes starting from $400k up to $900k, but if you really want to upgrade you can really see the difference starting at $1.3M USD. For instance, there are several communities along the coastline of the East Cape that start in Zacatitos, near San José del Cabo, all the way up to Los Barriles. But let's not forget that the East Cape consists of several points of interest, so we will be taking a quick look at the best areas to live in the East Cape here in Baja. There are 2 sides of the East Cape, North and South, while North East Cape communities are closer to La Paz, South East Cape communities are closer to San José del Cabo. East Cape South: Considered the most undeveloped side of the East Cape, the south side offers great surf spots, unpaved roads and off-the-grid lifestyle, this means that everyone living out there rely on solar panels for electricity and a cistern for water storage, water service is trucked and is on 24/7, so is not a big deal. Communities in the East Cape South: 1- Zacatitos 2- Playa Tortuga 3- Rancho Tortuga 4- El Cardón (Shipwrecks) 5- La Fortuna 6- Santa Elena (9 Palms) 7- Vinorama 8- Costa de Oro 9- Boca del Salado 10- Castillo de Arena Dirt roads are usually in harsh conditions like a 2 out of 5, so you better have a great car with even greater suspension. ZACATITOS: Santa Cruz de los Zacatitos, that's the original name, but over time, it became shorter, not officially, but shorter. This is one of the first East Cape communities, since it's closer to San José del Cabo, people used to go out there, when it was considered to be "far" from town a couple of decades ago, with all dirt roads, and only a few houses. This community is still far enough to enjoy privacy, uncrowded beaches and a really serene atmosphere. 5★ is considered the best Community ★★★★ Location ★★★★ Amenities ★ Swimmable Beach ★★ Surf ★ Distance from San Jose del Cabo - 9 miles Dirt road - 1.5 miles Great place to live if you have to go to San José on a daily basis. View all properties for sale in Zacatitos Playa Tortuga | Rancho Tortuga | El Cardon (Shipwrecks) This area is still considered close to town, since the paved road was built a few years ago, you can drive from downtown San Jose to Playa Tortuga in 20 minutes, and Playa Tortuga, Rancho Tortuga and El Cardon are basically next to each other, so we are talking kinda of the same area, which is nice, being next to paved road means that you don't have to do a lot of off-road to get home if you live in this area. A lot of construction going on right now, and it only makes sense because this is like where civilization begins with the paved road directly connected to town. El Cardon is one of the most beloved surf spots in the East Cape, it is conveniently located as the first surf spot when you are out there, so it's the easiest and fastest beach out there that you can get to, when the right swell hits, waves are all over, left and right. In terms of Real Estate, you can find ocean view lots in the $150k up to $800k for beachfront lots, and houses somewhere between $700k up to $3 or $6 million USD for beachfront. 5★ is considered the best Community ★★★ Location ★★★★ Amenities ★ Swimmable Beach ★★ Surf ★ ★ ★ ★ Distance from San Jose del Cabo - 12.5 miles Dirt road - 1 mile View properties for sale in Playa Tortuga, Rancho Tortuga and El Cardon. La Fortuna : La Fortuna is the next surf spot you encounter when you pass El Cardon, it's like a 15 min drive from one beach to the other. Even though La Fortuna means a little more driving to, this area has become very popular among surfers, with a few restaurants where you can grab a bite or have some drinks with friends or family, most of the restaurants are seasonal, but practically they are usually closed during August and September. So with more things to do around and a really nice beach where you can surf or swim, La Fortuna is definitely a must do if you are exploring out there. In Real Estate terms, it's a very rare thing to find any properties for sale within less than half a mile of the surf spot, super rare I would say, mostly because properties out there are still big chunks of land, meaning that there are not many residential areas/lots that can be offered to the regular people, but most likely to huge developers. 5★ is considered the best Community ★★ Location ★★★ Amenities ★★★ Swimmable Beach ★★★ Surf ★ ★ ★ Distance from San Jose del Cabo - 15.7 miles Dirt road - 3.6 miles Santa Elena (9 Palms): Santa Elena is like another 15 min drive north from La Fortuna, the same Real Estate terms apply, but a little less, It's definitely easier and not so rare to find residential lots for sale, they usually sell fast, that's the reason we don't see them very often. There are no restaurants or bars in 9 Palms, so you better gear up for a beach day. Surf is a really nice and long wave, it will depend on the swell, but it's usually super friendly, unless it is too big and with a constant period, other than that it is a beautiful surf spot. 5★ is considered the best Community ★★ Location ★★ Amenities ★ Swimmable Beach ★★★ Surf ★ ★ ★ ★ Distance from San Jose del Cabo - 20 miles Dirt road - 7.6 miles You are a solid 30 - 40min drive from the paved road to Santa Elena. View all properties for sale between La Fortuna and Santa Elena Now we have come a long way from San José, anything after Santa Elena means at least 1 hr drive on the rough road, this is where you have to evaluate if this is for you. Cabo Vinorama Estates: 15 min north from Santa Elena (9 Palms) and 1 solid hour from the paved road, we will find Cabo Vinorama Estates, a private gated beach community with a few houses and a beach more suitable for surfing than swimming. Need to mention that after Santa Elena, driving more than 40 mins off road just to get home, can be challenging for most people, this is when I say that this part of the East Cape is not for everyone, it's for the brave. 5★ is considered the best Community ★★ Location ★★ Amenities ★ Swimmable Beach ★ Surf ★ ★ ★ Distance from San Jose del Cabo - 22 miles Dirt road - 9.5 miles View properties for sale in Cabo Vinorama Estates Costa de Oro: The community of Costa de Oro has grown these past couple of years, with more people building in the area, this beach community is slowly becoming an even nicer spot to live in, even though you are far from town (1hr and 20 mins from the paved road) the community seems to be doing things right, slow but right. Beach is alright, mostly rocky but you can find some clean spots to take a dip. Plus you have Vida Soul Hotel 5 mins from there, that means that you have a restaurant and bar to chill nearby, definitely you need an all terrain vehicle if you consider living there. 5★ is considered the best Community ★★★ Location ★★ Amenities ★ Swimmable Beach ★★ Surf ★ Distance from San Jose del Cabo - 24.3 miles Dirt road - 12 miles View properties for sale in Costa de Oro Boca del Salado : Boca del Salado is a small private community, this is where the beach factor changes, the more to the north, the more you get into the Sea of Cortez, this means that the ocean is not as wild as in the south, so the more chances you get to find swimmable beaches, and Boca del Salado is the first example, the beach at Boca del Salado is perfect for swimming most of the time. Only a few homes and rarely anything for sale in Boca del Salado, overall it is a good spot to live just because of the swimmable beach, it is just a little too far. 5★ is considered the best Community ★★★ Location ★ Amenities ★ Swimmable Beach ★★★★ Surf ★ Distance from San Jose del Cabo - 28.6 miles Dirt road - 16 miles View properties for sale in Boca del Salado Castillo de Arena: Castillo de Arena is the last community coming from San José, easy 1hr and 30 min drive when the road is in okay conditions, if it rains and gets bad you will be looking at 2 hrs and 20 mins easy just to get there from San José. So is it far? Yeah kinda. Setting aside the long drive, Castillo de Arena enjoys one of the best beaches out there for swimming, fishing and the community is growing, part of the reason is that prices are not that crazy on that side, and the beach and community definitely adds up value to consider living there. If you like pickleball, this is a great place to be, since you have your own pickleball courts, when you are out there far from everything, you definitely need things to do around, you have the beach, the pickleball, trails to explore, hiking, mountain biking, off-roading, if you think of living in Castillo de Arena, consider that you need toys for your amusement like some quads, side by side, and amenities in your property. 5★ is considered the best Community ★★★ Location ★ Amenities ★★★ Swimmable Beach ★★★★ Surf ★ Distance from San Jose del Cabo - 29.7 miles Dirt road - 17.5 miles View properties for sale in Castillo de Arena East Cape North: North side of the East Cape comprehends a few communities where it is just easier to take the highway to get there, everything is like an hour drive from the San José International Airport. It is very different from the south, here you don't have any surf breaks, but you do have amazing swimmable beaches 24/7. Communities in the East Cape North: 1- La Ribera 2- Buenavista 3- Los Barriles 4- El Cardonal Services are available in the most populated areas and the road is fully paved if we talk about just getting there. Another benefit on this side is that you are closer to the waterfalls in Santiago and Miraflores, which is nice. La Ribera: La Ribera is now home of Costa Palmas, an ultra-luxury development with a private golf course, marina and a new high-end community right on the beach. But not everything is just luxury in La Ribera, there are a few sub-communities around it where you can enjoy pristine beaches like in LightHouse Point Estates, nice ocean views from Las Lomas II, and walking distance to the beach from Playa Colorada community. Here in La Ribera, Real Estate market is moving forward towards a luxury destination, in terms of investment, you can't go wrong investing in any type of property in La Ribera. 5★ is considered the best Community ★★★★ Location ★★★ Amenities ★★★ Swimmable Beach ★★★★ Distance from San Jose del Cabo - 37.6 miles on the highway Dirt road - 0 View properties for sale in La Ribera Buenavista & Los Barriles Buenavista and Los Barriles are two of the best beach towns to live in, they are next to each other and one curious thing about it is that Buenavista is in the municipality of Los Cabos, and Los Barriles is in the municipality of La Paz. Buenavista is a smaller town, with fewer things but still you can roll in a side by side (razor) around everywhere, beaches are gorgeous and Buenavista has Playa La Gaviota, which is a Blue Flag certified beach, like Palmilla in San José , Chileno or Santa Maria Bay, that basically means that is really nice. Los Barriles is slightly bigger compared to Buenavista, but still you are only a 5 min drive from it, so living in either town won't make any difference. Los Barriles feels a little more alive, you have plenty of restaurants, pickleball courts, hiking and biking trails, beautiful beaches and a sense of community that you can really enjoy living in. 5★ is considered the best Community ★★★★★ Location ★★★★ Amenities ★★★★ Swimmable Beach ★★★★★ Distance from San Jose del Cabo - 40 miles on the highway Dirt road - 0 View properties for sale in Los Barriles and Buenavista El Cardonal: Situated 30 mins north from Los Barriles, El Cardonal is a great option to invest for the long run. Beaches in El Cardonal aren't all sandy and beautiful, a lot of spots are very rocky and if the beach is a strong factor for you, you need to be really selective, only a few areas enjoy white sandy beaches in El Cardonal. Community is slowly growing, definitely, the slower growing side of the East Cape, but still, if you find a good deal and the beach looks good, you may want to consider El Cardonal. 5★ is considered the best Community ★★★ Location ★ Amenities ★ Swimmable Beach ★★★ Distance from San Jose del Cabo - 60 miles on the highway Dirt road - 0 View properties for sale in El Cardonal Ultimately the East Cape is a really cool destination in Baja where depending where you are located, you have a different set of amenities and outdoor activities. Is a perfect spot for retirement in the future or to start living right away. Connect with me for more insights about the East Cape and lets find the perfect property for you.

Homes and Condos For Sale in San Jose del Cabo
Welcome to my blog! Today I want to discuss about the housing market in San Jose del Cabo, by reading this article you´ll become more familiar with the different neighborhoods and areas and price ranges. Personally, I´ve been a resident for over 30 years in San José del Cabo and let me tell you, things have changed...a lot. For instance, the first thing you need to understand is that depending on the area, neighborhood, views, etc, the price will be directly affected and this is in most Real Estate scenarios anywhere in the world and San José del Cabo is not the exception. The closer to the beach and points of interest like dowtown, shopping malls, restaurants, plazas etc, the pricey it gets Starting prices for homes and condos in San Jose del Cabo are about $350k up to millions of USD. Depending on the type of property and of course your personal taste and needs, you can find houses and condos in different areas, but I will be breaking this down to different budgets and price ranges for a better understanding of the different options. To start let's say we have a budget of $300k up to $600k, and we will be increasing the budget while we move forward in the different communities. Condos in Downtown San Jose. This price range of $300k up to $600k is perfect to consider investing in a property in downtown San Jose. Condos sometimes are a tricky with all the expenses that come along when it's a brand new build, like new furniture, appliances, some personal details and decor are usually not considered in the budget but you need to have that in mind. But let's cut to the chase, right now as I am writing this the base price for a 2 bedroom condo in downtown San Jose in pre-sale is $360k, that is the starting price for 2 bedrooms, if you see anything under that price and 2 bedrooms within 3 blocks of the art district in San José, buy it! View all condos for sale in downtown San Jose and see it for yourself, compare the number of bedrooms, location, amenities and find the perfect property. Houses and Condos in Magisterial and Chamizal. MAGISTERIAL Magisterial and Chamizal are old time well established neighborhoods they are next to each-other and you can find some private condo communities in Chamizal, but rarely anything is for sale there. While La Magisterial is a more residential area, there are no private communities there, that means no HOA fees, just a regular neighborhood close enough to downtown and the beach, usually you don't have any ocean views from any of those, but if you do, you will be one of the few. CHAMIZAL Most of the houses in these areas are +20 years old, and maybe a few recent ones, inventory is always low, they usually sell fast, and the price range in Magisterial and Chamizal is between $350k up to $500k, great location at a decent price point. View All Homes And Condos For Sale in Magisterial and Chamizal. Now is the time to increase our budget to $700k up to $3M USD. Finisterra AND Hotel Zone | Club Campestre San JosE | La Jolla AND Costa Azul area. Finisterra is one of the oldest communities in San Jose, being next to the Vidanta Golf Course is one of the perks of living in the area, some houses are +30 years old and some not so much, but definitely the location is great. Houses in the area go around the $750K up to $1.5m, recently the market for houses in Finisterra is super low, they come up for sale very rarely, and right now we have condos in different developments in this area, condos go around $400k up to $900k. For the Hotel Zone we have different price ranges, but we have beachfront properties for sale, the "beachfront" factor always makes things more expensive, but living right in front of the ocean is truly a game changer, if you can afford it, it is definitely worth it. For this area we need to set an undefined max price, so you can take a closer look at what I'm talking about, but still you can find a nice 2 bedroom condo in Club La Costa or Peninsula for about $350k, which are really great locations, and prices are not over the clouds.

Los Barriles The Baja Lifestyle
Los Barriles The Baja Lifestyle
Welcome to my blog! Today I will be talking about Los Barriles, Baja California Sur, and if you are wondering ¿Whats Los Barriles? Well let me tell you. Los Barriles is a small beach town 1 hr away from San Jose del Cabo on the East Cape side, basically you have the Sea of Cortez for a playground. This means that you have endless water activities, from regular swimming, snorkeling, sportfishing, kite surfing, kayaking, paddle boarding or just relaxing at the beach. Los Barriles is in the municipality of La Paz, this means that La Paz city, (which is the capital of the state) is the one in charge of the services in the area such as water and electricity, for the most part. But still, Los Barriles is actually closer to San José del Cabo which is nice if you fly into Mexico internationally, since La Paz airport is not international. Life at Los Barriles feels like the old times when Baja wasn't as populated as today, slow paced and tranquil. But don't be fooled, here you can do nothing or all of it. You have a lot of outdoor activities such as hiking, pickleball courts, mountain biking, endless water activities, off-roading, and nearby waterfalls. Los Barriles and Buenavista are in the top retirement destinations of Baja for its way of life, the magnificent beach, the sense of community among expats, and the local people. Now if we talk about Real Estate, Los Barriles has experienced a significant growth from 2020 to today, about 25% more Real Estate opportunities than in previous years. What type of properties can you purchase in the Los Barriles and Buenavista area? Well there is a little bit of everything, LOTS/LAND If you want to build your house you can find really nice lots with great ocean views in between $100k to $200k. The building costs are around $1,300 USD per m2, like $120 USD per sqft, and It will vary depending on the finishes, quality etc, definitely it can be more, but hardly it would be less than this. Here you can view all the lots for sale in Los Barriles and Buenavista. Now if you don't want to deal with building anything, there are always options in the market. HOUSES You can find a decent house in the price range of $400k - $800k, a house always provides more privacy and space, but some of them may be bigger than you actually need. Here you can view all the houses for sale in Los Barriles and Buenavista CONDOS If a house may be bigger than you need, then a condo is the perfect solution, for reference, the last 3 years more condos in the East Cape have been built, and it's practically for the need of housing, without having the hassle of actually manage a whole house, it's just easier to deal with, plus you probably have an HOA that can help you with things around the condo. Condos are the perfect solution for seasonal residents, you can rent your condo while you´re not here, or not and the maintenance is going to be way easier than a house, and you usually have some amenities in condos, like a pool and rooftop area, which is really nice. Here you can view all the condos for sale in Los Barriles and Buenavista areas.
