Real estate market in Puerto Vallarta and Riviera Nayarit
The first thing to know about a market report: what it measures. This one measures my active portfolio: every number below comes from a real, verifiable listing published on this site. The sample is honest and small; the full bay market will be reported with AMPI/MLS methodology in the coming quarterly editions.

What I see from the trenches
- Demand keeps moving on second-home buyers: American and Canadian above all.
- New product sells mostly in pre-sale, with attractive from-prices and monthly payment plans.
- Highest-momentum areas: Versalles, Fluvial and the Bucerías corridor northward.
- Resale needs honest pricing: overpriced listings simply do not sell.
Toward the full report
- Full-market statistics with AMPI/MLS backing where licensing permits.
- Median price by area, inventory and days on market.
- Price per m² by neighborhood, from verifiable sources.
- Quarterly commentary signed by Marce García.
