Tropical Musings from Paradise April 2021 Edition

Spring is in the air!

This is always a nice time of year but this year with the rollout of the vaccines, we are all especially hopeful and optimistic that the pent up need to travel is real and that Riviera Nayarit will reap the benefits of Summer Travel.

Stay Safe everyone and I hope to be seeing you soon.


Real Estate in Riviera Nayarit

You have visited Riviera Nayarit two or three times and you have been bitten! You have fallen in love with the area, the climate, the culture and the people and you are thinking that the time is right to invest in Real Estate.

The first question that comes to mind will be – Can I, as a Foreigner, legally own a property in Mexico??

The answer is YES.

Outside the Restricted Zone, a foreigner or foreign corporation can purchase any type of Real Estate, holding the property as a direct owner in accordance with Mexican Law.

Within The Restricted Zone, the Mexican Constitution regulates ownership of the land and establishes that “In a zone of 100 kilometers (about 62 miles) along the border or 50 kilometers (about 31 miles) along the coast, a foreigner cannot acquire the direct ownership of the land”. These areas are known as the “Restricted or Prohibited Zones”.

A getaway weekend to Tepic

Tepic is the capital of Nayarit. It is the largest and most populated city in this state, making it the center of attention for Nayarit tourism.

The beauty is mixed with the hills of the Sierra Madre Occidental between crops of cane, corn, chili, mango, banana, or coffee that frame the beautiful colonial architecture that surrounds it inviting you to take long walks between the old large houses of the haciendas that are still standing, its squares with historical airs or its monuments that reveal why Tepic became the capital of the kingdom of New Galicia.

Despite being a small city, Tepic offers that air of tranquility like few others on the map thanks to its pleasant climate and streets where you can live the traditions that come from a rich legacy, a heritage of indigenous peoples such as the Coras and Huicholes.

Speaking of Tepic, I am pleased to announce another FIRST for the Team at Galvan Real Estate and Services… a New Listing FOR SALE!

This 6 bedroom, 6.5 bath is not a Casa nor is it a Villa.

At 602 square meters of construction, this is what I would call a Mansion.

White, on white this property is the perfect design pallet.

Cooking with Armando

One of my favorite quick meals has been borrowed from Betty Crocker.

Hamburger Stroganoff takes less than 30 minutes to prepare and is always good.

Since Egg Noodles are not available in Lo de Marcos, I serve it on rice and without the mushrooms.
