More and more people are choosing to invest in real estate in Mexico, and it is no coincidence. According to a HelloSafe study, 40.4% of Mexicans trust this sector as a safe and profitable option. For some reason, Mexicans are very aware of the phrase “one day I will live off my income.”
In 2023, the Mexican real estate market experienced notable growth, with a 6.3% increase in property prices, according to the Housing Price Index of the Sociedad Hipotecaria Federal (SHF). This increase is due to the generation of capital gains in the medium and long term, protection against inflation, and the security that this type of investment offers.
In addition, Mexico has tourist destinations and emerging cities that promise great potential for real estate development, consolidating itself as an excellent opportunity for those seeking to maximize their returns.
