After the pandemic, Cabo experienced an incredible real estate boom. Back in 2020 and 2021, I'd estimate that roughly two-thirds to three-quarters of condo sales in Cabo San Lucas were pre-construction. It made sense at the time—inventory was limited, prices were rising quickly, and buying early often meant locking in significant appreciation before delivery. Today, the market looks very different. The trend has largely reversed. In many parts of Cabo San Lucas, at least two-thirds of the condos being sold are already completed rather than pre-construction. Why? Buyers have more inventory to choose from. They can see exactly what they're buying, compare completed properties side by side, and often negotiate better terms. At the same time, many pre-construction projects no longer offer the pricing advantage they did a few years ago. The market has changed, and buyers need to adjust their strategy with it. Just because pre-construction was the best opportunity a few years ago doesn't mean it's automatically the best opportunity today.

One thing I've noticed over the years is that Mexican nationals are often less comfortable using escrow than foreign buyers. That's not a criticism—it's simply because the traditional way of closing in Mexico has been different for a long time. Historically, the process was straightforward: The buyer brings proof of funds or a cashier's check, everyone meets at the notary's office, the deed is signed, and the transaction closes. Escrow changes that process. Instead of exchanging funds at the closing table, the money is deposited with a neutral third party before closing. Once all the agreed-upon conditions are met, the escrow company releases the funds. In my experience, escrow makes transactions smoother. Nobody is waiting for a wire to arrive while everyone sits in the notary's office wondering when the bank will process it. If the funds have already been verified, everyone can focus on completing the closing. Could you close without escrow? Yes. People do it. But you're introducing unnecessary risk and uncertainty. If one side signs before the funds are properly received or verified, there may be legal remedies—but resolving the issue could take weeks or months. For most transactions, I'd much rather have the money securely sitting in escrow before anyone signs the deed. It's one more layer of protection that helps both buyers and sellers sleep better.

In 2018, the Mexican federal government disbanded the national Tourism Board and cut funding to destinations across the country. Most places took a hit. Los Cabos didn't. The reason isn't geography. It's structure. The Los Cabos Tourism Board was built 30 years ago with the private sector holding the majority of votes. When federal funding disappeared, the private sector covered it, created a second trust, and kept the Michelin Guide commitment, the European flight routes, and the destination strategy on track. One&Only. Rosewood. Four Seasons. Aman. These brands don't land randomly. Their presence here is the result of a decade of deliberate work by a community that chose long-term over short-term. 📍 Los Cabos, Baja California Sur . . . #LosCabos #CaboRealEstate #CaboAdvantage #InvestInMexico #BajaLife #Remexico #LuxuryRealEstate #LosCabosLuxury #MichelinGuide #CaboSanLucas #WhyCabo #MexicoRealEstate

The whole point of getting multiple bids isn't just to compare prices—it's to verify who you're actually hiring. Get at least three quotes. Tour projects they've completed. Talk to past clients if you can. And here's something I've seen firsthand: some builders will take you to homes in Cabo they claim they built... that they didn't actually build. I'm not saying this is common, but it does happen. Ask detailed questions: * Was this your project from start to finish? * Who was the superintendent? * Can I speak with the homeowner? * Do you have progress photos from the build? A little extra due diligence upfront can save you a lot of money, stress, and disappointment later.

I've seen this happen more than once in Cabo construction. A builder gets busy, so instead of doing the work with their own crew, they subcontract the entire project to another construction team. Sometimes the quality is actually fine. The problem isn't always the workmanship. The problem is that you've now paid Builder #1, who is paying Builder #2. That extra layer has to get paid somehow—and too often, it comes out of your pocket. At the end of the day, your house gets built, but you may have paid nearly twice what you needed to for the same result. That's why it's so important to ask who will actually be building your home. Is it the company you're hiring, or are they planning to hand the entire project off to someone else? There's nothing inherently wrong with subcontractors—every project uses them for specialized trades. But there's a big difference between subcontracting plumbing or electrical work and subcontracting the entire build. Have you seen this happen? I'd love to hear your experience.

David Horan moved to Los Cabos and got his car stuck in the sand his first week. Within 5 minutes, 6 or 7 neighbors showed up with shovels and boards and worked until it was out. Unprompted. Refused to let him help. Just got it done. He's been watching that same dynamic play out for years. During COVID, when restaurants and hotels were closed or at minimum capacity, the community simply took care of each other. No waiting. No organizing. Just people showing up. It's one of the things buyers don't fully anticipate when they're researching Los Cabos as a place to live. The numbers are easy to find. The community feel is harder to put in a spreadsheet. This is what David talks about when people ask why he hasn't left. 📩 marketing@caborealestate.com | CaboRealEstate.com . . . #LosCabosLife #RealEstateLife #NeighborHelp #CaboLiving #CaboRealEstate
