First off, it was ranked as the “#1 Small City in the World” by Condé Nast Traveler, a global media company. San Miguel acquired the title for five years while also being mentioned four times as the #1 voter’s choice for readers of Travel + Leisure magazine. The most notable achievement of this serene and mesmerizing city came in 2008.
In July 2008, the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) listed San Miguel de Allende as one of the world heritage sites with a protective town radius spanning over 64 blocks. The town is filled with historical representation of how the Spanish colonial era involved the use of inland routes and astonishing architecture to further economic activity and boost cross-cultural existence with the local Mexican communities of the 16th and 17th centuries.
While there is a lot to talk about the historical significance of San Miguel under the guided council for protective towns of UNESCO World Heritage Sites, the current atmosphere is much more alluring for several reasons. Greg Gunter, Broker of the nation’s first and flagship office for the Warren Buffett-led brand Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices, claims that San Miguel de Allende is facing growing demands from foreign expats for residence ownership and real estate investment opportunities.
The real estate market in San Miguel de Allende is booming at a surprising rate. Foreign expats from North America, predominantly the United States, are seeking second and vacation homes in San Miguel de Allende. There is a rapid increase in luxurious real estate purchases in San Miguel and an increasing investment in corporate offices and business park developments in the region.
Over the past 12 years, Broker Gunter has proven a guide to hundreds of real estate investors, second home buyers, vacation home investors, and retirees seeking a home in the most pristine parts of the city to set up their Golden Years homes, where a residency visa is easily obtained simply from investment in a home. Gunter has provided remarkable investment and real estate purchasing insights over the years, at one point reaching the status as the #2 Realtor in all of Mexico in sales volume.
Since he heads Mexico’s first Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices office, Gunter has acquired a solid reputation based on integrity and client satisfaction. Gunter’s advice to investors and dream home seekers is simple: talk to an educated Realtor, share your goals and objectives, and pour into the San Miguel de Allende real estate market.
Gunter notes that property appreciation can exceed 15-20% a year for prime locations in the city center, and city-wide occupancy rates run around 77%. This not only makes it a great investment venture but also an ideal opportunity to set up rental income streams in the thriving traveling and tourist hub of Mexico, San Miguel.
The city shines across all other tourist destinations and has gained immense media coverage for historical significance and natural landscape features. Gunter proposes real estate investment ideas and shares insightful information about the thriving culture, Mexican heritage sites, and UNESCO-sponsored events through official digital channels.
