Don't EVER put anything on leased land in Mexico that does not have a trailer hitch attached to it.

That about sums it up. Don't do it. Or, if you do put ''improvements'' onto leased land, know it now belongs to the owner and you are renting
it. Why would any do that?

OK so I looked at the web site saw the pictures and have questions-
Has anyone agreed to pay the higher rates?
If they have are they being thrown out also?
Is EVERYONE being tossed out or just the non-payers?
Has there been a FINAL decision in any of the court cases or is the landlord jumping the gun?
Was there any notice to those being tossed out that they had so many days to vacate or else?
How high are the new rates? In UDS.
Just asking for a better picture of what is happening there.
?

Stick a fork in that deal, it's done...Their website shows piles of stuff dumped in the desert and the good stuff being hauled off....Not much
commentary, but lotsa cops, so must be sorta legal.....several homes for sale

I'd just be curious to know what the annual lease was..... and is now, and what it entails as far as tenant amenities.

What does it
matter? It's the same in the states, when your lease is up, the landlord can raise the rent as much as he wants. You are free to pay it or move, why
would anyone expect it to be any different in Mexico?

Well, let's see. My ANNUAL lease for the land my house sets on is $1500 and the owner pays the taxes. Where else could I live in a 4BR, 3Bath home
with an ocean view for $125 a month? If I amortize the $94k that I spent for the house over the 10 year period of the land lease that adds another
$783 a month for a total of $908/ month for a home that on Pt.Loma with equivalent view would rent for at least $2500/ month. Of course I plan to live
in this house much longer then 10 years which reduces the monthly cost much more and my kids can assume the lease and live in the house after I die if
they want to.

That's the way I looked at it when I was thinking about buying a house on leased land south of Rosarito. It's like paying a big portion of your rent
for 10 years up front to get affordable housing in a fantastic location. When the 10 years are up, que sera sera. Maybe another 10 year lease at an
affordable rate, maybe not.
However, I eventually decided to stay with "wheel estate".

All good unless your landlord decides to give you the boot when your 10 years is up, which
would be well within his rights.

just heard that its not all of the home owners
just the ones that had formed a home owners association
the ones in the association ( or some of them)
are heading to Ensenada to meet with their attorneys
and hopefully a Judge to stop this
my friend that has a place there is not involved

I didn't meet with kevin but spoke to him on the phone and exchanged emails while negotiating a lease not long after he purchased the whole kit and
caboodle (for a mere million dollars I heard), he's a tough businessman and isn't gonna budge. I wish the homeowners the best of luck!
