“In planning for my two-month off-the-beaten-path summer college trip to Mexico, this guide proved to be one of the most helpful but also amusing travel books I've come across in my short life. I am not only an enthusiastic traveler but an avid collector of travel books, and this one strikes a perfect balance of actually useful advice and humorous short-story style accounts of the authors' extensive travels south-of-the-border.

Hi Ron, I live, work and play at Lake Chapala.
A two bedroom two bath house in a nice area will start at around $400 and go up as high as you want to spend depending upon views, amenities and location.
I’m an exclusive Buyer’s Only Realtor (no fee to my clients for my real estate services). I just look after your best interests as the buyer.
Of course at first almost everyone is looking for a rental. Here’s a link to a number of rental agencies in the area.

Now here’s a look (via an audio I recorded) into the Mexican culture and how to be sure your rental is really ready.

Hope this helps. Let me know if you need more information or have other questions. Sid
