MOVING TO PARADISE WAS
THE BEST DECISION I EVER MADE

By Don Murray
An Article from International Living to share with you

Sitting on the deck of his 36-foot cabin cruiser, Fish Trap, and sipping wine, John Pasnau takes a slow deep breath of clean, salt air and reflects on his new life. He and his wife, Valerie, are getting ready to cast off for a short cruise to watch another Caribbean sunset along the Riviera Maya. “Retiring to Mexico almost a year ago was probably the best decision I’ve ever made…except for asking Valerie to marry me,” he says.At ages 58 and 56, John and Valerie had had enough of the pressures associated with their lifestyle in the States.

“Living in Connecticut had become very expensive. I had a good business but my career was facing new and strong challenges from competition. If that wasn’t enough, the ongoing tax burden was becoming unbearable. At my age, I decided to look for other options,” says John. Connecticut’s winters were also taking their toll on the couple. “We were sick of the snow and the cold weather,” says Valerie. “And like most families, we had lived our lives for our children. Now, they were all grown and it was time to live our lives for ourselves.”

“After 11 months of subscribing to International Living, and doing research, we made the decision to leave the U.S. and move to Mexico,” John says. “We read about what others had done and we realized we could do the same thing. We just needed to take action! For us, that meant buying airline tickets. “We had been to Mexico before, but when we vacationed on Isla Mujeres in 2010 it appealed to us like no other place had. We knew we had found our place and moved here in September of 2014.”

It’s easy to understand why John and Valerie love Isla Mujeres. Isla (as the locals call it) is a small island just eight miles off the coast of Cancun, (but even closer to the Larger island of Cozumel,) on Mexico’s famed Riviera Maya. The warm turquoise waters are teeming with fish, dolphins, and sea turtles and are ideal for water enthusiasts. The island, while small at just five miles long and a half-mile wide, has all the essentials John and Valerie need, and what isn’t available on the island can be found in Cancun or Cozumel just a short ferry ride away.

Life on this paradise island costs John and Valerie about $2,200 per month including $900 rent for a fully furnished one-bedroom condo just across the street from the beach. They own two motor scooters that provide the perfect transportation around the island and share the roadway with golf carts and a few taxis.

“If there was one thing or one moment that clicked for me, John said, “it was realizing that I was happy with just having ‘enough.’ Some guys work themselves to death wanting more and more. I finally realized that tomorrow was not guaranteed and so we did something for today. If we have any regrets, it’s that we didn’t do this sooner.”

Sea Turtle Workshop

Be apart of an event in Cozumel you will never forget!
June marks the beginning of the sea turtle workshop. In 2006 the Committee of Brigades began allowing volunteers to participate in the turtle salvation program. What that means for tourist visiting the island during the months of June-November, or locals wanting to be a part of such a rare experience, is now you can get involved! Sign up to attend the Night conservation workshop which will be approximately 3 hours from 9:00pm - 12:00am. Watching baby turtles emerge from their nest to make their way to the ocean is an event in Cozumel you would never forget! Please be aware anyone traveling in the nesting areas after dark could be asked to leave by the local police or military personnel. They are instructed to make sure no distrubances are made to the volunteers or turtles, be please cautious of the guidelines during turle nesting season.

To sign up for the workshop visit:

For those who have a mortgage currently, and plan on doing a rate and term refinance to obtain better conditions, it is highly recommended that you move forward with this transaction now, to take advantage of current historically low interest rates. Most clients are able to change their mortgage to an 8.5% interest rate with minimal paperwork.

For those who are considering purchasing a property, while property is almost always a good investment, it is in your best interest to move forward with the purchase and mortgage now to take advantage of current terms and conditions. While a small increase in interest rates will probably not shy away most buyers, by purchasing now you will have the best mortgage conditions.

*Remember that one of the most important aspects of qualifying for a mortgage is a healthy credit history. If an increase in your credit card’s interest rate and therefore monthly payment will result in you not making your regular payments on time, then now is the time to get your mortgage.

At Cross Border Investment, we are dedicated to providing the best loan options for our clients. Please feel free to contact us so we can help match you with the best mortgage conditions available.

Kind Regards,
Cross Border Investment
