&lt;p&gt;Puerto Vallarta is quickly developing a reputation 
                  as being the best golf destination in Mexico. Home to seven world-class 
                  golf courses, including designs by some of the greats, Jack Nicklaus, Tom Weiskopf, and Robert Van Hagge. &lt;/p&gt;
                  

&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;The newest course, and perhaps the best, is
                  &lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;El Tigre&lt;/span&gt; in Nuevo Vallarta, at the fabulous Paradise Village.&amp;nbsp; 
                  The 7,239 yard, Par-72 course consists of eight water bodies and 
                  was commissioned to be &quot;the most exciting championship golf course 
                  in Mexico&quot;.&lt;/p&gt;

        <description>&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;The market in Puerto Vallarta
has not been affected. Where the Americans have cooled off, the Canadians have
come in force.&amp;nbsp; In Mexico, the second home/vacation home market has been mostly
a cash affair and thus not in any trouble with mortgages defaulting, as they
simply do not exist. Furthermore, the North American buyer of a second
home/vacation home is not affected by the current debt service ratios and those
interest payments should remain relatively stable over the next few months

&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;Canadians and Mexicans have
so far dodged the credit woes gripping the U.S., where the sub-prime crisis in
the mortgage market has triggered rising foreclosure rates and left households
saddled with debt, according to a report from CIBC World Markets.

young real estate agent Colbert Coldwell saw the need for honest,

real estate agents acquired properties for themselves, often from
uninformed sellers at ridiculously low prices, and then resold them for
huge profits.... read on.... &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 13pt; font-family: &quot;Lucida Grande&quot;; color: black;&quot;&gt;It is the Notario Publico who, in
effect, acts as a &quot;Holding agent&quot; for the involved parties and for
this reason there are few escrow companies in Mexico. At the present time there
is no general use of title insurance in Puerto Vallarta Mexico, although some American companies
are providing coverage in some resort areas of the country. On the other hand,
insurance companies do provide full home coverage-throughout Mexico.

Notary is the attorney of record and the unbiased, official representative of
the government.

responsibility to both parties and sanctions the contract from a tax and legal

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 13pt; font-family: &quot;Lucida Grande&quot;; color: black;&quot;&gt;Most people that may be interested in
real estate in Puerto Vallarta would be obtaining regularized land known as a
fideicomiso, in which title can not actually be obtained directly by a
foreigner, but title can be placed in trust with a bank the next best thing.
This system has been in effect for many years and has worked very well with
literally thousands of people purchasing Mexican property without any problems.
