Hello to All, 

Today I sent out a query to all of the members of the classified ad website inquiring as to the condition of the Real Estate market in their area. I gues the results were not shocking. They were pretty much as I had expected in all parts of Mexico. Where it was different it was because of the individual agent and not the existing market conditions. I'm referring to our own Michele Kinnon. She seems to be swimming upstream and doing a good job of bucking the…

Here are some of the more interesting properties I discovered while surfing the classified site. The first one, the sorkeling tour below has some beautiful photos and a video.

I would consider most of the postings I've included as being exceptional for their class. For example, there is a home listed in Lake Chapala for $169,000 with $25 k down.

There's a super deal in Ensenada overlooking the Bay.

We have some really super deals. If you're not interested in buying a…

Just read that in Seattle (I'm from Washington state) that they've now had 41 consecutive days without a sunny day. Read and weep: http://www.komonews.com/weather/blogs/scott/119421644.html

Meanwhile, here at Lake Chapala, Mexico (just south of the Guadalajara International Airport) we've had 191 consecutive days…

Is this the best time? 

I have seen many signs that it is. On our classified website,Mexico-My Space Classifieds I see bargains daily. I have seen many properties reduced in price. I have seen many properties that I would purchase tomorrow if my wife were not holding me back. Auite often, when I see a good deal, I will write to the Realtor and tell them what a great…

A root canal, a post and a cap recently cost an American lady living in Ajijic less than four hundred dollars.  She felt very lucky because she was sure this same procedure would have cost her two thousand dollars in the States.

Just another reason to live in Mexico! You can afford to see the dentist even if you don’t have any insurance.

So, if you need a lot of dental work done it’s very possible for you to save thousands of dollars…

Remember the old expression “Now Your Cooking with Gas”? Well that’s just what we do here everyday. We also heat water, dry our clothes and on rare occasion take the chill off of our homes on the few cold nights here. Some folks who don’t use solar also heat their pools with gas.

When I say gas I mean propane gas, not natural gas. Pictured is a typical propane tank.

Most couples find that their gas costs approx $25 USD per month on…

Hi, my name is Sid Grosvenor and I was a police officer in Dallas for 35 years and was a Commander over 4 Dallas Police Store Front Mini stations. One of our primary responsibilities at the storefronts, usually located in high crime areas, was to help the residents to protect their homes from all types of crime.

I will give you the basics in this post of how to improve security of your home at Lake Chapala – Ajijic Mexico, but the information can basically be applied to almost any…

Yes, we have modern hospitals, complete with sophisticated technology and highly skilled medical professionals both at Lake Chapala and nearby Guadalajara.

These medical facilities provide good quality care, on par, or according to some retirees “superior” care  compared to that in the United States.…

So, you want to bring your car into Mexico. Here’s How !

Every foreigner is allowed to enter Mexico with a vehicle, which is not Mexican plated (e.g. US or Canadian), as long as you have the following:

1) Mexican Insurance,

2) FMT (Tourist Visa), FM2 or FM3,

registration/ownership in your name, and

3) a credit card or cash to cover a bond for the vehicle.

The Mexican government will charge your credit card for approx. $40 (costs subject to change),…

Where Can you do all of these things almost for free ?

All of this and much much more are waiting for you at the Lake Chapala Society located at beautiful Lake Chapala, Mexico.

The Main Entrance on Constitucion

The name sounds a bit…

Long ago, but not far away, four hundred Nahuatl Indian warriors held off and repelled four thousand Spaniards for four years. Their tale is one of fearless, exhaustive innovation toward maintaining their remote speck of land, positioned in the middle of Lake Chapala. This marvelous piece of Mexican real estate, Mexcala Island, awaits its rightful recognition in the annals of Mexican history, for it tells a story of determination, rather than one of conquest.
