We’ve been talking about why so many builds in Cabo hit that 70–75% mark… and then just stop. This is a perfect example. Budget blown, project stalls, builder and owner split. Let’s say you bought the land for $100K and spent $500K building — you’re all in for $600K. A couple years later, you sell for $1M. Sounds great… until taxes hit. Here’s the problem: if you don’t have proper facturas (barcoded, verifiable invoices), your cost basis is basically just the land — that $100K. The $500K build? It doesn’t exist in the eyes of the tax authority. Now you’re paying capital gains on roughly $900K instead of $400K. Massive difference. If you do have real facturas, then yes — you can justify that $600K basis and only pay on the gain. And here’s where it gets ugly. In this case, the builder was clearly losing control of the project. They split, the owner asks for documentation… and finds out the facturas were fake. Fake QR codes, fabricated invoices — straight-up fraud. And yeah, that’s a crime. But now you’re stuck dealing with legal processes that can take years, chasing someone who may not even be in the country anymore. This is exactly why you don’t want to fix problems later — you want to avoid them from day one. The wrong builder, no oversight, bad documentation… that’s how projects go sideways fast in Cabo.

Is golfing in Cabo becoming too expensive? It feels like every year we hear about another course tightening access or going fully private. While that may elevate exclusivity and maintain course conditions, it also raises the question—at what point do locals and visiting golfers start getting priced out? Cabo has built a reputation as one of the premier golf destinations in the world, with incredible oceanfront layouts and top-tier amenities. But as prices climb and more courses shift toward private membership models, it seems like the game here is becoming increasingly geared toward the ultra-high-end buyer and traveler. Is that a natural evolution of a luxury market, or are we losing part of what made golf in Cabo so special in the first place? Curious where everyone stands on this—do you think golf in Cabo is getting too expensive? And if you had to pick, what’s your favorite course in Los Cabos right now?

Most agents don’t leave their brokerage because of one big reason. They leave because of a pattern. Not one bad deal. Not one bad month. Not one bad situation. But a constant feeling that something isn’t right. In real estate, we’re taught to look outward when things slow down: the market, interest rates, and inventory. But rarely do we stop and evaluate the environment we’re operating in. And that’s where the real impact is. Your brokerage shapes: how you generate opportunities, how you build your brand, how fast you grow, and how supported you feel in the process. When that environment is aligned, things feel simple: you focus on production, relationships, and growth. But when it’s not… You start compensating. You work harder to make up for: lack of support, unclear opportunities, generic marketing, limited tools, and internal friction. And over time, that effort doesn’t translate into better results. It just leads to burnout. The mistake many agents make is normalizing it. Telling themselves: “this is just how the industry works” It’s not. There are brokerages that: prioritize performance over favoritism invest in their agents provide real tools and support and build a culture that actually helps people grow The difference is not small. It’s exponential. At some point, it’s worth asking: Am I growing because of where I am… or in spite of it? Curious to hear your thoughts: How much do you think your environment impacts your results?

I’m taking over a build right now that’s about 70–75% complete. High-end project. And part of what I have to deliver to the client is a warranty on the work. That means before I even sign anything, I have to make sure what’s already been built is solid — safe, up to code, and not something that’s going to come back on me later. So we brought in a DRO and a structural engineer. Started digging test holes, opening up walls… and found a major issue. One side of the foundation had shifted. Why? Poor compaction. And that’s a big deal. People overlook it, but compaction is everything — if that’s off, the whole structure is compromised. Now instead of just “finishing” the build, we have to go backwards. Fix the foundation, stabilize it properly, make the necessary corrections — then move forward. Because there’s no way I’m putting my name on a project or offering a warranty unless I know it’s built right. This is exactly what happens when projects get to that 70–75% mark and fall apart. It’s not just about money — it’s about quality, oversight, and doing things the right way from day one.

There are people building million-dollar homes for two million, and I do not think that is right. I have seen builders who sub out practically everything—masonry, labor, roofing, all of it—when really the only things that should be subcontracted are true specialty trades like windows, carpentry, HVAC, and certain installations. If you are calling yourself a builder, you should be controlling the core of the project, not outsourcing the entire job and marking it up. The real problem shows up when a build gets to that 70% or 75% mark and starts falling apart. At that point, the owner is stuck trying to find somebody else to step in and finish a mess they did not create. And honestly, that can be worse than just overpaying for a build that at least gets done correctly, because now you are dealing with delays, bad workmanship, ripped-out electrical, redoing work, and trying to convince a reputable builder to take over a project that is already headed off a cliff. It is like asking a coach to take over with 10 minutes left in the fourth quarter when the team is down by 20. Most good builders do not want the liability, and I do not blame them.
