Another Dave here. Brighton sings your praises loud n clear. My wife and I are very much considering your area. Probably me more so than she. Her worries are healthcare for the over 65 ers. If we do find affordable health ins. the move would be closer to seamless. We're on the other coast , Nova Scotia. But moving from universal healthcare can be "scarey". It'll be a permanent as we too have dogs. Please keep those videos coming. Dave of P n D
I am a Mexican national living in the United States for many years but plan to retire in Mexico. Are there financing options available? Or would one have to pay cash for the purchase of a home or land?
Hi Ricardo - there are some financing options - definitely better options for Mexican nationals than for ex-pats, at least as far as interest rates & getting approvals. Shoot me an email at gordon@bajaliferealty.com and I'll put together some information for you!
Hi Dave - so sorry for the late response. Indeed I was a realtor in Victoria, British Columbia. The licensing process here takes a few months, and there were a few hoops to jump through - but thankfully Baja Life helped me along so it wasn't too difficult at all. Where are you in Canada?
I'm in Vancouver BC, I've been a realtor for 14 years here but am thinking about where to buy a home to vacation and potentially retire. La paz and the surrounding area seems amazing! How's crime in reality down there? Much less than the media makes it seem I'm guessing? Thanks for the response.
@@DaveCollette Hah - indeed MUCH less than the media likes to report. When we planned our move, I did a bit of a deep dive into Mexican crime & murder stats. Indeed, it ranks high among countries for murder, however it's concentrated in a few border towns, and when you factor in innocent casualties, it ranks among the lowest in the world. The great majority of crime is between the cops & the cartels! La Paz is fabulous. My folks moved here nearly 20 years ago and have had nearly zero instances of any crime whatsoever. The locals are amazing.
The "workaround" is the fideicomiso process - buying a home via a bank trust. I am happy to provide lots more information on that! gordon@bajaliferealty.com!
Hah! Wow - each to their own, I guess! I think a few thousand folks who enjoy living there might disagree with you, but maybe we could connect in person and I can show you some different La Paz neighborhoods that might be more to your liking? Hit me up any time - gordon@bajaliferealty.com.

@@bajaliferealty6506 awesome thank you so much
Great video Gordon! Were you a real estate agent prior to moving there and if so how easy was it to get licensed in Mexico? All the best from Canada!

Sounds like a dream! What are prices doing there these days?
I was under the impression that Americans could not buy homes close to the ocean has that changed

I’m coming down first week in August I’ll hit you up
Looking forward to it!
Can an American with a felon conviction purchase the land in La Paz Mexico?
I drove around El Centenario for an hour and a half today. This video totally misrepresents the area. I saw nothing close to a livable community.
