In these unprecedented times, there exists a unique and exciting opportunity – the purchase of an investment property at Selva Escondida®, located in the beachfront town of Puerto Morelos, Mexico.
Without a doubt, anyone will tell you that the intelligent thing to do is not to work harder but work smarter. The best way to work smarter is to have your money work for you.
We at Selva Escondida® are positive that you will be working smarter by investing in one of our brand new, beautifully designed homes. The reason that this investment is a smart choice right now is simple – foreign currency is at an all-time high, and your buying power in Mexico is about 25% stronger than it ever has been.
As we have learned in the last few months, things can change very quickly, and no one can say for sure how the exchange rate will change. That’s why now is the time to take advantage of this opportunity. While we don’t know how long the strength of foreign money will last, what we do know is that the Mexican tourism economy is only growing. The Yucatan Times reports an annual growth of 3-5% and the number of daily visitors to the Riviera Maya just continues to increase.
This is great news for you because not only will you see a fantastic return on your investment, but you will also have the option to turn your property into a source of income as a vacation rental property.
People are spending more and more money on experiences over possessions, especially Millennials. According to Forbes, there are 80 million millennials in the United States who average 2.6 trips per person each year. And among them, families travel much more than couples or singles. “Millennials with children are also traveling more internationally than any other demographic group,” states Forbes. This makes the family-friendly environment at Selva Escondida perfect for an income property.
They are known to be adventurous, have income to spend, and they love to travel to learn something new. What better place to do that than the Riviera Maya, which is home to incredible beaches, natural wonders, and adventure parks?
What would you tell yourself five years ago that you know now? Would you have invested in Amazon? What if an investment opportunity was before you right now that in 10 years or less could potentially be worth more than when you started? The wise choice would be to act on it now!
On the date this article was written the USD/MXN exchange rate sits at one dollar for 24.61 pesos. Five years ago, on this same day, the USD/MXN exchange rate sat at one dollar for 15.35. If you had 100 dollars in 2015 and exchanged your money to MXN pesos you would have received 1,535 pesos. On April 23, 2020, if you exchanged 100 dollars you would receive 2,461 pesos. That is a 60.33% increase on your money in five years. Which means your money would have grown 12% year over year. What bank can offer that?
The Mexican peso has been depreciating since mid-February to cross $25.7 per USD for the first time in April.

Located just 15 minutes south of Cancun International Airport, Puerto Morelos is a hidden gem that has kept its quiet, small-town feel despite the popularity of the Riviera Maya.
