Cancun Real Estate - Top Properties, in a Greener Context

Cancun Real Estate is moving more and more in the direction of sustainability and higher responsibility in real estate development. Many American and Canadian buyers are now looking for properties which, in one way or another, demonstrate sustainable or "green" ideas in their design.

While Cancun has already been decisively moving in this direction, in late April 2010 a special committee was formed to promote this aspect of Cancun's ever growing real estate industry, called the Committee for the Local Environmental Program (POEL). Besides encouraging green concepts in new development, the committee is also responsible for carrying out precise and transparent regulation of the functions and the necessary adaptations to urban development programs, while ensuring the integrity of the natural environment, including road infrastructure.

Another nearby area which has been moving in the direction of sustainability is the island of Cozumel. Cozumel Real Estate is an established favorite for Americans and Canadians who enjoy living in close contact with the island's lush and well-preserved nature, and many participate in caring for it. A bit further south, Tulum's upcoming real estate forum is going to have a focus on sustainable ideas, and the ares recently hosted two forums presenting green-focused design and products. About 3 hours south, at the end of the Mexican Caribbean, beachfront homes in Costa Maya use solar panels and wind generators for clean, and efficient energy sources.

Whichever part of the Mexican Caribbean buyers are looking, Costa Maya, Tulum, Playa del Carmen, Cancun and Cozumel MLS listings provide a good selection of new developments with sustainable ideas implemented in the design, or properties ideal for adaptation to a green lifestyle.
