What is being built
The master plan sets aside land for several hotels (the first brands announced are international resort operators), low-rise residential neighbourhoods, a town centre with shops and restaurants, a marina, a golf course and the beach promenade. Build-out is phased over a decade; the first residential parcels and the beach infrastructure come first.
How buying off plan works here
Each parcel is sold by its own developer under its own contract. The usual structure is a reservation, 30% to 50% during construction in instalments tied to milestones, and the balance at delivery. Payments go to the developer's project account; ask for the fideicomiso (trust) arrangement, which protects buyer funds and which the better developers use.
Because the district is CONFOTUR-approved, the first buyer from the developer pays no 3% transfer tax, and the property is exempt from IPI for the period set in the approval, up to 15 years.
Our view
Pre-construction pricing rewards buyers who are early and patient, and punishes those who do not read the contract. We walk you through the developer's track record, the delivery guarantees and the resale conditions before you reserve. If a parcel's terms are weak, we say so and show you another.
