Merida

 

As 2010 begins with Mexico's government convention for tourism in Merida, Merida Real Estate continues to show a combination many of the key features which attract both tourists and home buyers to Mex

Mexico Real Estate for the international market is closely tied to Mexico's thriving tourism industry. This tie was recently reflected in the Merida Real Estate area, as Mexico's government officials met in this city to plan tourism strategies for the following year. Just as Merida became the focal point of planning strategies to present Mexico's combination of rich traditions and cultures with highly developed infrastructure to international travelers in 2010, Mexico Homes in Merida offer the ideal balance of these two features.

As 2010 begins, the tie between real estate in Mexico and international tourism continues to develop; many of the same factors which attract tourists to Mexico attract these same tourists to investigate real estate options and the possibility of living in Mexico. These factors include large beaches, warm climate, cultural heritage, history, nature-related activities and archeological sites.

Non-Mexicans who buy a home in Merida, perhaps more than anywhere else, enjoy an excellent combination of these factors. Merida is within half an hour of the Yucatan's beachfront, it offers the unique atmosphere of a colonial city center, it has a significant community of North Americans, it is within a short drive of Yucatan's most famous pyramid sites (including Chichen Itza), and it is relatively near to several wildlife reserves. 2010 will also see the construction of a new theme park, presenting Mayan archeology in an interactive setting.

"We are confident in the benefits that owning a home in Merida presents to international buyers," comments Thomas Lloyd, president of the TOPMexicoRealEstate Network. "Our Merida broker, Mitch Keenan, has a thorough knowledge of the area's home market and introduces buyers to the best real estate opportunities."

Lloyd also points out that Merida homes are available for relatively low prices. Whether a buyer is looking for an renovated 18th century home in the colonial center, a modern condo unit, among many other possibilities, real estate in Merida provides opportunities for many different uses, budgets and lifestyles.
