The Futurewill take care of itself!


What is happening in Loreto is happening all over theWorld in those places where People find and think they can escape to for a period of time.

Sharks; there is no way to stop it, just get out of the Way!!
Jesse: I have thought for years that Baja will be the New flordia!
Just wait until the Canadians start selling water to Baja, can you even think of the Future Wealth that would create?

Suggestion; Get you a Good Panga, load it up with a couple of weeks supplies and go South of Loreto. There are still tons of places that no one knows or Goes!
On the Pacifica there are also some good places around Los Barancos{ San Gergorio}

:et the people with the Money and desire to live close do so!
Make your own way in the Back Coves of Baja!! He that would make a Great Book"Back Coves of Baja Sur", some young man or women should get with it and Explore those coves, write a Book or Guide and then 40 years from now there would be another Loreto.Skeet/Loreto

And next will be the


the shortcut from Los Barriles to Todos Santos. These people just don't have the time to drive "all that way " to San Pedro when they could be shopping!
Glad I got to see it before it turned into lag Nig! :lol:

Unfortunately Loreto is not the only place where 'development' has reared it's head. It's happening now in Mulege and the Bay. The village has long since lost it's 'village' atmosphere..it's now a 'boom town' and we lament the passing of an old Baja way of life. In Conception Bay are plots being bought up by developers and sold as house lots...2 behind Rancho Coyote, 1 up from Burros Beach and encompasses old petroglyphs..that will soon be degraded or destroyed. These are the projects of the future planners of the Bay. May it rest in peace.

We all knew it would happen sooner or later...sadly it is here now.

Have you been to the Orchard lately? It is now completely sold out with the little Hansel/Gretel cottages..They are being built on every conceivable square foot. Not something a Baja fan would have wanted. It's going to be very crowded it seems. All along the riverfront they are clearing land for houses and storage facilities. Even the hilltops are sprouting houses. Say goodbye to a peaceful village...maybe it will bring happiness and prosperity to the people, but somehow I doubt it.

Anon. YOu haven't responded to my asking if you'd consider going out & meeting with Darlene. I know for one, I'd be interested in hearing your input from the meeting, and I'm sure there would be several hundred others. (maybe not that much) Since you are in Loreto, you might be the 'perfect' one to do this. Please respond. Thanks. Phil S

This board is not a good place to get advice on real estate in Mexico. It looks like all the forecasters of doom for Loreto Bay have been wrong. The prices have started rising dramatically as the first casita has been built. The beach club memberships that started at 5k are now going for 20k. I'm starting to think my own caution based on an expected drop in CA housing prices is missing the mark. Sure there's some speculation going on, but from what I hear, many buyers are simply looking to buy a nice place they can retire at. I'm considering a fractional on the mainland that is available at preconstruction prices. With good due diligence, one could do quite well fronting money to good developers. The resale restrictions at Loreto Bay sound prohibitive for flipping. I'm looking for something more flexible.

It may spell doom if you are a poor local and are displaced by a hot real estate market.....investers will certainly cash in.

You are Dead Wrong to indicate that some Poor Local is going to be displaced! The Loreto Mexicano is much smarter than that. I would suggest you go up to Mira Mar and see if any of those Poor locals are worried about being displaced.

I know that many are aganst the Loreto Bay thing because they did not want to see Loreto change. As far as "Doom" we need to await awhile to see it the Water gets There!

As far as Real estate off of this board I think it is a Good starting Place to "Weed Out' the folks who are just Talking. find out who knows of what they Speak, go from There.
