    I have myself visited some excellent places near that church. My problem will be finding a place with perhaps a patio or courtyard for my dogs. My Mex. street dog would be barking at those sleepers on the street - she doesn't like the beggars perhaps because they were not nice to her when she was a starving street dog. Maybe a house back in the neighborhoods or even along the river or by the jungle, too. There's lots of nice choices in P.V.!!!!

    I like the studio with the blue kitchen. Is it an option in Puerto Vallarta to do a 6 or 12 month lease so the rent remains the same throughout?

      Usually long term rental(‘ 6-12 months) is lower priced .

    • @dennishassler605
      @dennishassler605 Před rokem

      Small dogs are easier to take care of, but many condos do not permit dogs and even older residents that still have a dog are discouraged - they don't like exceptions to the rule even if it is "grandfathered" in. I like dogs and will accommodate them - good owners take care of their pets. I usually ask locals to get me a place during off season when lots of places are avail. I think pet owners are usually good people, so we rent our vacation homes to pet owners.

  • @jodiehebert8285
    @jodiehebert8285 Před 2 lety

    I guess it is typical for owners to raise rents during the high season, but is that something they document in a lease? I guess you need a translator to review leases. Also, do people move around if they don’t want to pay increased rents? How long is typical lease?

    • @LarissaSokla
      @LarissaSokla  Před 2 lety +1

      Yes, you have to read and understand lease, it’s important. In most cases it’s in Spanish and English, but not all . Long term rental is usually 6 months and up to one year.

      12 extra
      dollars 2200 extra

    • @geraldchaffee5506
      @geraldchaffee5506 Před rokem

      could help with the cost if necessary. Thank you. So the low prices in low season would really help if the low season apts are700 usd that would be perfect. M getting married qnext year too so she will have more income to contribute to the extra fees.

    @RedroomStudios Před 2 lety +5

    you deserve a medal for shooting this video in the extreme heat of the day during rainy season. I would have been soaking wet with sweat climbing up those hills. very good location where you finally viewed the 3 units... next to the church and Plaza Hidalgo and only a few blocks to the Ley grocery store. when I was staying in PV near El Mirador I walked by this area all the time to get my groceries. I also like all the shops and restaurants on Ave. Mexico. I would consider the largest apartment for sure in low season. the rooftop terrace was a nice feature. the high season prices end up being similar to Air BNB rentals.
    p.s. - most of those people you see sleeping in the road or sidewalk are homeless. I'm not sure if they would look at it as a simple life.

      My favorite neighborhood downtown. Next to the apartments is a nice little pub/restaurant. Lots of taco stands and restaurants. Nice little fish market across from Casa Ley Supermarket The views from the upper streets are gorgeous. Walk up Calle San Salvador towards the cemetery, there’s produce, meat, fish markets… the Mercado Del Mar 5 de Diciembre.

    Remember everything is negotiable, if you work out a longer contract for 6 months or a year, you can also get the rent at a lower price, most landlords want a deposit plus first and last months rent upfront, so keep that in mind, also check the faucets sinks and toilet to make sure they flush and run properly, do a thorough check before you sign any agreement. I am interested in places that allow pets, so many do not. Great video btw.

I am familiar with the town of PV, been there few times. I understand they are constantly building new Condos but rent is hard to find. I will be staying in the Romantico Zona for now and move around.

The Marlin was $11 a day and it was on the ocean I think actually it may be a block away from the ocean now they built a road, the room in the mountains was $3 a day! It was all locals and a half a million roosters. It was one of the best times in my life :)

      PV is no cheap place, your paying for being in paradise, but still you can easily live here under $1200 a month

      @@LarissaSokla im very familiar. I lived one block from where you filmed in 5 de diciembre on prolongación de Jamaica. I also had a restaurant in Zona Romántica and have lived in Pv off and on since 1999. I live in Guanajuato now. That art meant shown is overpriced and the área isn’t very safe.

    Thanks for this video, I enjoyed most of the content. I was challenged and really turn off by you filming the two gentleman sleeping. It is invasive and inappropriate for you to have used them in you video while they're vulnerable and with out permission. Also, wrong to make assumptions about their circumstance, and to lightly frame it as living a "simple life". Take care and I do enjoy your videos...just not that part.
