Are You a Property Owner Looking to Generate Rental Income?
Playa del Carmen continues to attract thousands of international residents each year, many of whom are looking for long-term rental properties. For property owners, this represents an excellent opportunity to generate consistent income.
However, navigating the local rental market without experience or professional guidance can present several challenges.
Many foreign property owners arrive in Playa del Carmen assuming that the rental process works the same as it does in their home countries. In reality, local regulations, legal processes, and market practices are different, and misunderstanding them can lead to complications.
Without proper knowledge of local laws and procedures, property owners can unfortunately become vulnerable to dishonest individuals who promise results that never materialize.
For this reason, working with a reputable, honest, and certified real estate professional is essential.
In the state of Quintana Roo, professional real estate agents must be government-certified by SEDETUS, which ensures that they provide ethical and professional services to clients and property owners.
Meet Laura Torres
My name is Laura Torres, and I have proudly called Playa del Carmen my home since 2007.
Over the past almost 20 years, I have witnessed the incredible growth and transformation of the Riviera Maya. My professional background began in Psychology, which I studied in Veracruz, and later I worked in Human Resources within the hotel industry.
Eventually, my path led me to the tourism sector, where I spent nearly five years working at a diving shop. It was during this time that I truly fell in love with Playa del Carmen and the lifestyle of the Riviera Maya.
In 2014, I founded a marketing agency called Be Social Education, which operated successfully until 2020. Unfortunately, the pandemic forced us to close our doors. However, many of my clients were in the real estate industry, and during those years I helped them increase their visibility, attract more clients, and grow their sales through digital marketing.
In 2023, I decided to take the next step and fully enter the real estate industry, combining my marketing expertise, local knowledge, and passion for helping people find their place in this beautiful region.
Today, I am proud to assist property owners and clients in finding the right tenants and creating successful long-term rental experiences in the Riviera Maya.
If you value working with someone empathetic, professional, and committed to building long-term relationships, I would be honored to assist you.
Long-Term Rental Proposal & Commission Structure
Below is a transparent overview of the commission structure for long-term rentals.
Assuming a monthly rent of $30,000 MXN:
12-Month Lease
Commission: One full month of rent
$30,000 MXN
6-Month Lease
Commission: Half a month of rent
$15,000 MXN
3-Month Lease
Commission: 10% of the total rental value
Example:
$30,000 × 3 months = $90,000 MXN
10% commission = $9,000 MXN
Short-term rentals (such as three months) can be a great option if you plan to use the property yourself for most of the year and rent it only during certain periods. While long-term rentals are generally more stable, I am happy to manage shorter stays if needed.
