Puerto Morelos, Q.R. — Puerto Morelos is emerging as the state’s preferred real estate haven due to its strategic location. The municipality, which lies halfway between Cancun and Playa del Carmen, is also chosen for its natural environment.
Miguel Ángel Lemus Mateos, President of the Consejo Inmobiliario Empresarial (CIE), says while mid-range properties are continually being built across Quintana Roo, it’s Puerto Morelos who is emerging as the preferred location.
He says nearly 900 real estate projects are currently under development across the state’s seven main destinations, representing approximately 30,000 housing units, a majority of which will become available within the next 18 months.
With this, Quintana Roo maintains constant growth, positioning it among the most dynamic in the country. He says while this confirms the dynamism of the sector, it is ecological areas that are attracting developers.
“The state continues to lead the way in the displacement of mid and upper-middle-range properties. Demand remains strong especially in areas with an ecological and sustainable focus,” said Lemus.
According to Lemus, places like Cancun and Tulum are facing an oversupply of real estate while Puerto Morelos is emerging as one of the most promising hubs. He says one reason is its strategic location and another, its commitment to sustainable development.
“In recent years, the ecological focus and the trend toward sustainable housing have become key factors for those looking to purchase a home in the region.”
The President of Consejo Inmobiliario Empresarial de Quintana Roo (CIE) says Ruta de los Cenotes in particular has become a draw for those wanting to live in close contact with nature.
“Puerto Morelos has a strategic location between Playa del Carmen and Cancun, which is driving its development. The Ruta de los Cenotes area in particular will grow significantly, responding to people’s growing preference for green, ecological and sustainable living environments,” he said.
