Whether it’s a beachfront condo, a cozy casa in a colonial town, or an investment property in a growing market—you’re not alone. More and more people are looking south for a slower pace, better quality of life, and investment opportunities that make sense. But let’s be real: getting started can feel overwhelming. That’s exactly why we created our podcast, MAYD for Mexico. In our very first episode, Getting Started, we share the story of how we went from high school sweethearts in Canada to full-time homeowners and business owners in Mexico. We’re Brent & Erin May, and nearly 15 years ago, we took a leap of faith—leaving behind the familiar for a new life in a country we fell in love with during countless vacations. What started as an adventure turned into a lifestyle we truly love, filled with warmth, community, culture, and of course, tacos. Why Mexico? People ask us all the time: “Why Mexico?” Our answer is simple—it offers a quality of life that’s hard to beat. But beyond that, it also offers unique opportunities for those looking to invest in real estate, retire affordably, or simply live life on their own terms. Owning property here isn’t just possible—it’s incredibly rewarding. And no, you don’t need to be a millionaire or fluent in Spanish to make it happen. You just need the right guidance, local insight, and a little courage. What You’ll Learn in Episode 1 In this episode, we don’t dive into the legal logistics (that’s coming in future episodes), but we do cover what we believe is the most important first step—your mindset. We talk about: • How we made the decision to move • What fears we had to overcome • The rewards and challenges we’ve faced • And why we believe anyone can do this with the right support If you’ve ever looked at real estate in Mexico and thought, “Could I actually do this?” — this episode is for you.
