RIVIERA MAYA REAL ESTATE – MEGA RESORT DEVELOPMENT UPDATE

Monday, August 29th, 2011

Playa Del Carmen’s real estate market has taken a major jump with the developement of a Spanish group backed by Bankia Bank, former Bancaja. Now after 3 years in the market for luxury residential living, it is now a reality that used to be just plans and 3d pictures, for many skeptical investors that jumped in at an early stage they are being amazed at what this project has become so far and it still a work in progress that continues to impress them. Currently this developent is considered a destination in itself and offers everything that a dream commnity in the caribbean could have.

This mega-development will be divided into separate districts–which include the largest commercial shopping area in the region, high-end hotels, beach clubs, fashion districts, a PGA approved 18-hole golf course and luxurious residential zones–all facing the Caribbean Sea on the Riviera Maya. Mayan Riviera real estate will immerse itself in this world class development.
The community is a totally environmentally-friendly resort.  75% of the area in the project will be landscaped grounds, natural forests, lakes and ecologically protected zones.  The second largest coral reef in the world is located directly in front of this mega development in the Mayan Riviera.  The reef is the second largest living organism on the planet and one of the oldest as well.  The developers are dedicated to preserving this natural wonder so that the residents can enjoy it forever.

Now there are 3 phases in the project completed, THE FIRST PHASE are luxury condominums on the beach. The property features resort amenities like pools, tennis courts, paddle, fitness center, spa, concierge services among others. Interior finishes are outstanding with high end materials, wood work, kitchen appliances from BOSH and high tech options that make it a smart living experience using an Ipad or Blackberry app to control lights, curtains, music, etc. Located in one of the best and most exclusive beaches of the caribbean of Mexico just a mile and a half of famous 5th Ave. (Quinta Avenida) and downtown area, in fact 5th Ave. will eventually connect directly with this development with the inevitable growth of Playa Del Carmen. The opportunity of ownership here is like nowhere else in Mexico. Developers are offering up to 65% financing through their own bank with a rate of around 5% depeding on LIBOR (LIBOR + 4%) for up to 20 years MORE INFO ON PHASE 1 email us at info@selva-co.com or call 718 713 2764

THE SECOND PHASE are the Condo Residences on the Golf course branded by prestigous South African Golfer. Currently the condos are around 70% built and due to their agressive marketing, discounts and flexible terms not found anywhere in mexico, the project has now sold up to 80% of its inventory in just 12 months without the project being finish or without having a model suite. The reason for this success are the fact that these units have no competitor in the area and the value being offere outweiths their asking price. MORE INFO ON PHASE 2 email us at info@selva-co.com or call 718 713 2764

THE THIRD PHASE is our favorite. This is a combination of the first phase and second phase with all the experience adquired in the past based from feedback the developer has taken to design and built what the market is asking for. Residences on the golf course with resort amenities, 1, 2, 3 and 4 bedrooms with oustanding views of the golf course and partial views of the sea from higher units. The condos have the popular lock off options where you can turn a 2 or a 3 bedroom and separate them into independet units for privacy or to maximize rental returns. Amenities include access to all the facilities of the communiuty, beach clubs, gym, spa and the shopping malls. MORE INFO ON THIRD PHASE email us at info@selva-co.com or call 718 713 2764


Now parallel to these phases we have some of the most important amenities. THE BEACH CLUB currently a small restaurant and pool will be replaced for a bigger beach club with many restaurants of international cuisine, a SPA which will compete as one of the biggest in the Riviera Maya, beach beds, umbrellas, towells and everything you could need to enjoy the Caribbean lifestyle.

THE CLUB HOUSE is found on 13,250 m² of land located across from the practice area of the golf course anf the 9th and 18th hole greens. The project has vehicular access at the entrance, so occupants of the second phase residences may decide which area of the Club House they wish to drive through. It also has a special access, as well as different pedestrian walkways, wich facilite circulation inside the residencial complex.

Inside the Club house there are some amenities desgined to satisfy the owners: Fitness Center, Dressing Rooms, Swimming Pool, Spa, Jacuzzi, Sauna and Steambath, Snack-Bar, Fine Dining restaurant with Spectacular views of the Golf, Terrace for Events and Pro-Shop.

RIVIERA MAYA REAL ESTATE UPDATE

Tuesday, December 14th, 2010

One of the most prestigious developers working on the future of Playa Del Carmen recently launched their first phase of beachfront condos north of downtown Playa.

After more than 2 years of construction, the deluxe beachfront condos are finally ready for investors and families to move in.

The property features resort amenities like pools, tennis courts, paddle, fitness center, spa, concierge services among others. Interior finishes are outstanding with high end materials, wood work, kitchen appliances from BOSH and high tech options that make it a smart living experience using an Ipad or Blackberry app to control lights, curtains, music, etc. Located in one of the best and most exclusive beaches of the caribbean of Mexico just a mile and a half of famous 5th Ave. (Quinta Avenida) and downtown area, in fact 5th Ave. will eventually connect directly with this development with the inevitable growth of Playa Del Carmen.

The residences offer 2, 3 and 4 bedrooms all facing the water with those near the ocean having the best views. The spanish group backed by Spanish bank Bancaja is glad to announce they have finally received the so called “Condo Regime” in Mexico, the condo regime or Articles of incorporation on a condo complex are crutial for owners to take full title. Many developers in mexico who lack proper funding, planing or political networks often fail to obtain the condo regime leaving many owners hanging with their investments. This developer has finally obtained title which also speeds up the process of those who want to finance.

The opportunity of ownership here is like nowhere else in Mexico. Developers are offering up to 65% financing through their own bank with a rate of around 5% depeding on LIBOR (LIBOR + 4%)

Outside of this beachfront complex you have a Master Plan community with up to 600 acres of land as part of your gated community with a championship 18 hole Golf Course. Club house, Shopping Mall, Beach Clubs are among the additional amenities you obtain when you live and own in this piece of paradise.

Their second phase, condos on the golf course has also been a success, currently still 14 months away from completion has become the most succesfull selling project in Riviera Maya for the past year with up to 60% of the project sold thanks to the discounts and flexible terms the developer can offer. On top of all of that, they also offer the same financing terms as the beachfront condos. In simple words, you can get involved with around 100k intial investment which can be spread in up to a year and finance the balance of up to 20 years with their “in-house” financing. Some of the condos we have personally sold have monthly payments of around $1,600 USD which when you compare with a long term rental of a similar condo in the area, you can pretty much put the downpayment and rent the condo long term to have it paid for itself. Another option is to rent it on a weekly basis where projections based on current market conditions show very attractive numbers.

There are also very attractive options with guaranteed rentals on selected units, furniture packages, management and vacation rental programs for you to choose from.

If owning a piece of paradise is your dream then why not take a closer look at this opportunity who is expected to be one of the most exclusive neighborhoods in Playa Del Carmen and Riviera Maya and with reason, just take a look at the photos and judge for yourself.

The word hassle-free ownership is easily used by many developers in the area but only a few really have the ingredients that make it free of hassles. This property truly offers a hassle free opportunity for investors wether Mexicans or foreigners.
