Frequently Asked Questions

Playacar (oldest, most established), Playa Magna, Real Ibiza, Bahía Principe, Puerto Aventuras (marina), Corasol, Aldea Zamá (Tulum). Each has different HOA rules, build restrictions, lot sizes, and price points. We've built in all of them.

Yes, but within community guidelines: height limits (usually 2–3 floors), setbacks, materials restrictions, architectural style requirements, construction hour limits. Some communities require architectural review board approval. We handle all approvals.

04
Construction Logistics

06
HOA Integration

Materials Guide for Tropical Construction

Tropical-Approved
  • Structure: Reinforced concrete 4,000+ PSI, epoxy-coated rebar
  • Windows: Hurricane-rated aluminum with impact glass
  • Flooring: Porcelain tile, polished concrete, tropical hardwood
  • Exterior: Chukum plaster, natural stone, marine-grade coatings
  • Carpentry: Tzalam, chechen, parota (natural termite resistance)
Materials That Fail
  • Drywall: Mold within months in 80% humidity
  • Untreated wood: Termites destroy in 2–3 years
  • Standard steel: Salt corrodes in 3–5 years
  • Carpet: Permanent mold in tropical climate
  • Asphalt shingles: Can't withstand Category 5 hurricanes

5 Costly Mistakes to Avoid

  1. No fixed-price contract — Verbal agreements = 25–40% cost overruns. Demand itemized contracts.
  2. Ignoring hurricane codes — Retrofitting costs 3× more than building right. NOM-031 compliance is mandatory.
  3. Skipping environmental permits — SEMA clausura = forced demolition. We have 100% approval rate.
  4. Hiring 5 separate contractors — Coordination failures + blame game. Our in-house team covers everything.
  5. No waterproofing plan — 1,200+ mm rain/year + high water table = guaranteed leaks without proper membranes.
