Are there jobs available?.... (more) Renting In PV for a Month?We are planning a trip to PV area for about a month this winter and would appreciate any helpful tips you could give us as far as rental properties in the area.

But since there aren't any here, I am developing one myself. I am attaching a recent press release and you can log on to my website at http://go2vallarta.com/paradise. This will be the first project of this type in Mexico.... (more) from Suzanne Elmore Homeowners InsuranceAfter several years of consideration and looking at Mexico we have decided to buy a condo. Does Mexico offer homeowners insurance or do people take their chances?

Anyway, I purchased your book a few weeks ago and your suggested trips to the different regions in Mexico has excited me.
