Some think a lady is equally responsible for an abusive lover if she doesn't see the signs and leave early. Some think.

Once upon a time, my folks won some land in Baja...it was a bit of a scam- in that you had to keep paying a membership fee annually. When they died, I let it go because it was just a big old desert. And- I would never own it anyway-it was a 50 year lease of desert I was paying. Maybe that was a mistake, but at the time, every penny counted. They have been trying for decades to get Baja developed.

When I was going there, I remember there were reportedly plenty of protection statutes to prevent gringo encroachment. But we thought they were sensible. After all, Mexico was the only country we knew of in which a priest couldn't wear his costume in public. (Holy Mother church has always been with the fascists, you know. Land values. Before the revolution, the Pope owned 51% of Mexico.)

All property developments for US citizens are scams. Senior Americans don't understand that its just a really expensive lease(without the protections of a lease in the US). The areas around Lake Chappala(Guadalajara) and San Miguel are just as bad as the coasts.
Part of what keeps property prices down for Mexicans is they buy with the assumption that someone richer or more powerful can take their land or house anytime.

Dozens of these shitpiles were going up at the beach in Rosarito financed by cash out refi's, for the most part, and "investors" who flipped 'em like flapjacks, until they couldn't.
Things started to cool down there as the refi's got tougher to do, and as the headless bodies started to show up in ever greater quantities. The black clad federal police that arrived to set up roadblocks and drive around with .50 cal machine guns on their pick ups weren't much comfort either since the bad guys wear black and drive around with machine guns too.

Oh and then there's Officer Gonazalez who stops people just as they leave town so that he can collect the exit tax. He leads his victims to a dark stretch of road, so that they're never sure if he'll shoot them if they decide to try to get his information and go to court.

There was a table set up at the airport one year. A gent was taking some sort of tax from passengers on their way out of Puerto Vallarta. Nobody asked, nobody told. It was just bidness.
If there is any proof needed as to how mesmerized by celebrity we all are, it's the fools who would lay down their savings simply because that pompous poseur's picture is on the project. You think they'd all rush to their banks if the development was through Pemex Preferio?
