It's a landscape like no other, a vision of serenity and sublimity mere minutes from the Caribbean shore on the Mayan Riviera in sunny Mexico.

Readily accessible by air, Playa del Carmen is THE fun-and-sun destination of the decade.

And when you combine white-sand beaches and marvellous sunsets with an opportunity to realize outstanding returns on a once-in-a-lifetime real estate investment, you can be forgiven for believing you've stumbled into your own Shangri-La.

Welcome to Reef Plaza on 8th in Playa del Carmen, a signature project brought to you by the trusted professionals at Century 21 Reef and Reef Properties.



As a property, Reef Plaza on 8th is second to none, a 34-unit luxury condo hotel with a small commercial plaza in the heart of Playa del Carmen. Step through the foyer and you're minutes from the famous 5th Avenue, just a block from the sea. The site is in close proximity to the famous Blue Parrot and Mosquito Blue boutique hotels as well as such trendy restaurants as La Parilla and Yaxche.

Both interior and exterior design have been contracted to the award-winning Porada Design Group of Calgary, with a mission to give the project a decidedly European feel. Because, unlike nearby Cancun (developed by Americans), Playa del Carmen gives full play to the Spanish influence.

The atmosphere is that of a congenial, super-friendly European community. To be outfitted with lush tropical gardens, rooftop swimming pool, spa and fitness centre and offering a spirit-lifting view of the Caribbean, these one- and two-bedroom units and penthouses are to feature only the highest quality fittings and amenities. "As an investment, Reef Plaza on 8th represents a priceless opportunity to enjoy the rewards of effortless, trouble-free ownership in an incomparable resort location. No worries, no hassles, no sweat," confirms Cam Sobati, President of Reef Properties.

Did we mention a projected 16-per-cent annual return? Units are being sold on the 100-per-cent ownership model and Reef Plaza on 8th will be managed as a condo hotel. Owners can easily book their own recreational visits online and at their own discretion, all the while enjoying strong and steady cash flow (including the online ability to check and control their rate of income).

Even the most conservative estimates for the region project 60-per-cent rental occupancy during the low season, 75 per cent during the prime season and 80-per-cent occupancy in the high season. Weekly rent rates at Reef Plaza on 8th will range from $1,500 to $2,500 US.

On the other hand, due to the increasing popularity of Playa del Carmen, values will continue to escalate rapidly through the end of the year and beyond.

Reef Plaza on 8th represents a particularly timely investment opportunity for those in the baby-boom generation, people who have accumulated a nest egg of disposable cash and who are looking for a combined vacation home/real estate investment.

Upper middle-income Canadians should understand that real estate values are appreciating on a global scale. Now's the ideal time to get in. Better still, the Mexican financial markets have recently loosened restrictions on Canadian and U.S. citizens, meaning offshore home purchasers are now eligible to apply for and obtain mortgages. By easing such regulations, the Mexican government has dramatically enhanced the future of the local real estate market (for details, see www.wallstreetassociates.com.mx).

Real estate professionals in Mexico predict a 60-per-cent increase in property sales by the end of this year, with property values increasing more than 30 per cent annually.

The principals of Reef Properties feel that Playa del Carmen represents a limitless opportunity for future development. For that reason, they are more than receptive to inquiries from potential joint-venture partners.



"I really am interested in speaking with corporate investors as well as Canadian builders and developers," adds Sobati. "We'd like to introduce more quality Canadian input and design into our upcoming projects."

Sobati and the Reef Properties team have been extremely gratified by their experience in this vibrant and exciting market. Private or institutional investors who seek premium investment returns while sharing Reef's idealistic vision for creating a unique life experience for every home buyer are more than welcome to get in touch.

"In fact, we welcome every inquiry," Sobati says. "This is a tremendous area and we genuinely believe the opportunities are limitless.

"The company has plans to expand its scope and invest in the fast-growing Mayan Riviera region over the next five to seven years," he continues. "It would be ideal if we could raise a significant portion of these funds right at home.

Many forward-thinking groups are already giving serious thought to joining forces with us."
