She have to came with a visa and married a mexican men😊

I have $60,000 and I’m getting an international studies degree next spring. My parents are from the neighboring village of Potrerillos but I would love to purchase in Chapala and start a business. I’m 22.

,,,,, The Truth is Mexico does not need the poorer retirees,, other countries are doing the same, Sadly she could not afford it in Mexico ,,,..its worse for Canadians due to the pathetic CDN dollar...NOTE they will be raising the money needed again this year She should move fast

Is it simply because it's off season for tourist and Took hot ?

It's low season. Most of the American and Canadian's have left to avoid the heat. My niece lives in Puerto Vallarta for most of the year. She has friends there that have lived in PV for 10 years or more that are considering moving to other areas of Mexico because of inflation and the higher cost of living in the area.

Any sense of what a one year apartment lease be had for, at this time of year in LDM?

It's low season. There's only so many tourists to go around. I think this is normal for L de M. I've been there in high season. Very nice! Sayulita is more trendy and if the surfing is better that would make the difference.

Why the difference?

I'll take a deserted beach over a crowded one any day!

build it up and they will come

Although we live in Sayulita, my wife and I absolutely love going to the beach in Lo De Marcos. Hardly any beach vendors. You can actually see the beach and ocean instead of just umbrellas and chairs. The beach bars are way more affordable. We call it a Slow Day in Lo De. ❤ Lo De!

Jerry, They're all in Vallarta doing God's knows what. 😂😂😂

Such a contrast, the world has changed in the last 4 years 😮

We enjoyed our visit to LDM the first week of June and didn't feel it was 'lonely". We also had beautiful weather at that time.

So why aren't tourists coming here?

For people who want to cut their living costs those may be the places to go. Beaches 👍

I LOVE that village .. its already sold out for February 25... enjoy your travels

Reminisce of COVID

Jerry! That’s what makes it awesome! They still have biweekly karaoke and amazing sunset dinners ;). Also all the families come out after dark

Thank You for your Info very informative

I,m from San Luis Potosí and it’s all this and more that’s the historical centro but there are also modern malls, movie theaters, Costco, Sam’s Club and anything a big city has to offer

Hi Jerry Brown Travels, I used to watch these 2 UA-camrs with around the same age as you, called "Life with Leighmans" that lived in Taxco, and then one day they just disappeared off everything including bitchute. Would you possibly know what happened to them? Their last video was "weapons of war" consisting of vaccines instead of guns.

I think that I have a crush 😮 on Virginia. I hope she is able to get to the Lake Chapala area. Perhaps, it's possible for her to find a place to live in San Antonio. 🇲🇽

I'm glad you were able to help her find a way to meet the residency requirements. Mexico is a sovereign nation with every right to set standards for immigration, just like any other country. People will always suggest that a person should simply abuse the FMM form by using it as a substitute way of establishing residency, but that may turn out to be a very shaky reed on which to lean. It's no different than a person trying to enter the US with the intent to get a full time job, but using the tourist visa instead of applying for the correct permit which allows them to work. Or, using the tourist visa when they intend to establish residency. People can be, should be, and are refused entry into the US every single day when they lie to immigration authorities and they try to misuse the tourist visa. Mexico has every right to do the same. And with modern computerized systems which show your full record of entering and exiting the country, it will be a simple matter for Mexico to see that your pattern of behavior establishes that your intent is residency, and not tourism. They have the legal right to kick you out, any time they want to. Now, add in the current political environment. In the US, one political party is making it a core component of its political strategy to demonize Mexican immigrants into the US, and to threaten to round up and deport even long time residents who entered the US many years ago. The other major political party is responding by also "getting tougher" on immigration, up to and including closing the border. It is quite possible that there will be quite a backlash from Mexico, and those who tried to misuse the FMM to establish residency may find themselves kicked out of Mexico, forever.

The police is not the mafia or the cartel, there wanted for arrest, that is based on the individual and its up to you to pay or go to the police station and pay and if cought can loss there job so report it and pay the ticket, the reason the police will have you follow them to the police station is to pay the ticket becouse tourist are known for trashing the ticket, especially in border cities, you not going to jail so dont be bluffed, there not going to knock you over the head and steal your money, its not knowing and your own fears that play into this situation and remember you did not get stop for nothing, I dont know what the out of circulation ticket cost, be as a incentive, I would think to keep those cars off the read as port of the traffic congestion, you really dont even need a vehicle, there's all kinds of public transpiration in Mexico live in Mexico for 47 years an Anglo American, usually I'm able to talk my way out, I said talk not pay, I know how to deal with that situation, I very seldom get pull over and when I do I know I did something, many people do a rolling stop so depends how fast your rolling and can be stopped and giving a ticket want you have a feel for driving in Mexico its easy every one is looking out for the other driver, it can make you a professional driver its take al lease 25 years to really know Mexico (as an adult) your still green behind the ears

Great video thank you 😮i wonder why the voice is Robotic earlier

But she will not be paid in dollars with the Mexican investment! So you have to convert that to Pesos. Maybe you converted it and I missed it. Thanks for your video's!

I’m excited for Virginia. Thank you for helping her see the way Jerry.

We’re 2 people living on $2700 per month for the last year. We have emergency money too. We haven’t touched it yet.

If Virginia refrains from spending money at the gringo restaurants and rents a cheap crib, wouldn't $1,400/month be enough? Is she actually a real person?

This is all about nothing. Get the VISA by showing she has ca$h (as you said) and make the move. It's strange there is a scripted computer generated voice that was played to us. Good luck to all.

I have made your same suggestion to people before when they were complaining about the income requirements. If you have a house with US$100,000 or more of equity then selling it and banking the money for a year should do the trick to meet the Mexico financial requirements for a residency visa and while you are waiting you can go to Mexico in 6 month stints with the 180 day tourist visa. About the only objection I've heard from some people is that receiving a 180 day tourist visa isn't guaranteed. They were thinking back to the situation a few years ago where Mexico wasn't always automatically giving 180 days on their tourist visa, something that is not currently the case. All I can say is that 180 days is the normal length tourist visa for Mexico, and I've never known anyone to have a problem, but it's not "100% absolutely guaranteed" and it never was. Quite honestly entry into any country where you are not a citizen is never guaranteed, that's the way of the world, but if you are an honest person not looking to break the rules and cause trouble you should be fine, just like when you travel anywhere else in the world.

Thanks again Jerry. Once again your many years of experience is helpful to your viewers. I was back there recently and saw you and Lori going on a morning walk Keep helping others and thanks for the help I got from you watching the videos and when I saw you in Tlaquepaque a few years ago. Always nice seeing you and Lori in Ajijic/ Lake Chapala área.

Just come as a tourist stay here from December until may and you will find out if Mexico is for you or not. Don't make a final decision until you have been here at least 6 months. Mexico takes a while to get used to. However I hope you find courage to make a decision to go as a tourist first Virginia. Let life surprise you. Best wishes. Gery and Lory are my mentors. I love listening to them. ❤

I thought you could live there for cheap. This lets me out.

There are so many better choices. Panama, Ecuador, Costa Rica.

She could easily retire in Panama with $1,400/month and live a decent life at the same time. 🤗

Thanks, Jerry. Good analysis. I'm a retired CPA, and came to similar conclusions (but with somewhat more $) for the 4 year visa. The problem is the permanent visa, which has much higher requirements. Please have a look at those; maybe I'm being too pessimistic.

That sounds like good advice Jerry , she will be able to realize her dream of Mexico living ❤🎉🎉🎉😊

Jerry, I understand you're trying to be helpful but people can live here in Mexico with very little income. I've lived here for decades on about $1,000 a month. Also been here on 6 month tourist visa for years and years with no problems.

$1400 is impossible, Cambodia yes, Thailand if you live like a local as much as possible. If she sells the house and invests it in a dividend paying stock portfolio, that could make here another $14,000 a year, then she may be able to swing it

Oh Wow! She sounds so flat and down in her luck. Great video and share Jerry & Lori! I just love your shirt Lori! I hope you both are having a wonderful weekend. 🥰💐💞👍🏻

Another suggestion, if she is nervous about putting her money in a Mexican CD, is to buy a covered call etf in the US, called JEPI, which is the S&P 500 with a covered call overlay, and leave it in the US It is run by JP Morgan, which is one of the biggest banks in the US, pays a monthly dividend in the 7-8% range, and is as safe as the largest 500 companies in America I own it myself, and it is hands off, buy it and collect the dividends

Jerry, the voice recording seems to be a computerized voice recording and not a real human voice recording. I heard the same voice on several other videos.

Pretty shirt Lori

Oh geez. I know penniless people who came down here & got their residency card. You can live here in a small village on $600usd a month still. It won't be a great life but you can survive. "Income requirements"...b.s. just get a good Mexican immigration attorney.

Its not paradise. Its very dangerous. At this moment even the tourist areas can be dangerous. The mexicans say Its immigrants. I dont know. Buy the police Corruption is everywhere. Do not drive in MEXICO. You will just be a target.

Is there a gym for the roaches in that sleeping "room"? jk

This seems to be the Method. Pick vulnerable people and rob them. Mexico is a dangerous place at the moment. Basically mexico is totally corrupted.

Great stuff right here ❤
