Lot / Land For Sale in Primo Tapia

2011-07-13T17:12:00Z

• lot / land - $3,950,000 USD

Primo Tapia, Playas de Rosarito - This land of 13.72 hectares (approximately 30 acres) located in Playas de Rosarito, at kilometer 45 on the free road to Ensenada. It is at “Zona de Marbella”, a suburb “Primo Tapia” and close to Puerto Nuevo, known for the best lobster in the world.

The property is a ½ kilometer east of the scenic road, between Rosarito and Ensenada. It has an spectacular ocean view, and what is most important: IT IS THE ONLY ZONE IN ROSARITO WITH HOT SPRING WATER (58 C) which makes it ideal for:

A) The construction of a deluxe-spa that would meet the needs and wishes of the new important influx of residents in the area, with a feature that no other hotel or condominium development is able to offer.

B) An exclusive development for retiring baby boomers.

The city of Rosarito Beach is located in Baja California approximately, 20 miles south of the United States border at San Ysidro, California and Tijuana, Mexico.

Recently there has been a surge in construction that is attracting baby boomers to Rosarito. This has changed the personality of the town. It is a place where people are coming to retire and with them they are bringing pieces of what they left behind, which is transforming Rosarito into a city of multicultural charm.

You can’t compare the value you will receive when you purchase real estate in this area. The cost drops from 30% to 50% compared to prices just 50 miles north of Rosarito. It’s cheaper than Cabo, and much less expensive than California, and because of its proximity to the United States you get the best of both worlds. The weather is the same as San Diego’s, which is one of the most desirable cities to live in on the west coast.

These and other reasons make it important to think of creating a quality development that can offer lodging, medical services, diverse health treatments in a panoramic view site; a relaxation area where people can enjoy their golden years and where their income will be enough to live a life of quality.

A Reality Check on Mexico

2011-06-07T18:43:00Z

by Robert P. Miller, PhD Mexico is in a unique position to reap many of the benefits of the decline of the US economy. In order to not violate NAFTA and other agreements the U.S.A. cannot use direct protectionism, so it is content to allow the media to play this protectionist role. The U.S. media - over the last year - has portrayed Mexico as being on the brink of economic collapse and civil war. The Mexican people are either beheaded, kidnapped, poor, corrupt, or narco-traffickers. The American...(read more)
