Given we are accountants, we cannot promote our services on BP as its against the rules.

You may do better, but don't get caught up in the hype that a lot of these influencers promote.

It's either somebody guessing, repeating what they've heard or read from another source or lying (if they want to promote a destination).Given what I just mentioned, I don't know what the appreciation rate has been in Merida/Yucatan but there is no way it's been 15% an it doesn't come close.

However, long-term success requires a clear investment strategy.Real estate is a tangible asset that can generate passive income and appreciate in value over time.

Promotional disclosure - I am in the business of selling professional services to real estate investors like yourself and completely understand it is not an easy task to find a trusted advisor to bring on as a team member. 

As accountants on BP, we are not allowed to self-promote.

Whether it's building a passive income stream through rental properties or seeking appreciation in property values, there's something uniquely rewarding about the tangible nature of real estate investments. 

Some of the benefits of investing in real estate are given below:Investing in a tangible asset that has historically appreciated over timeSpread risk by diversifying your portfolioIt can be a source of passive income, with minimal effort through short and long-term rentalsReal estate investment properties have typically been resilient against inflationDepending on investment type, tax benefits can be availedThanks to these (and more) benefits, you’d think investing in real estate was a no-brainer, and in most instances, you’d be right!

Current rates do not help your case around cash flow, but I like the strategy you are promoting for room to room rentals.
