Best lots at Cabo Riviera Marina

I'm asked all the time if we are selling anything at Cabo Riviera. Well actually, yes we are. We've had several million in sales this year and have several million more pending.

Why are we selling when so many other developments aren't? The first reason is that the owners are the developers: to this date there is no money owed to any financial organization or private financiers. The $30 million or so that has been spent so far has come from the owners pockets and sales. We are working; phase one will be finished by next January 2011 or the owners will be paying penalties to the lot owners.

Why can we offer high-end resort property in a marina where you can dock your boat next to your house for 25% down and 10 year financing? Same reason: the owners are the developers. If they want to offer private financing for the property, they can! There are no banks involved nor are there a bunch of expensive loan fees.

What does this mean? It means that smart money is investing in its future. Not only financial future but future lifestyle for family and friends.

Which brings me to the title of this post: Best lots at Cabo Riviera. We haven't sold any lots at the ends of the islands. These are solid gold. Here's what will happen: After the first one sells, the rest will follow fast. For example, we had sold no beach lots until the spring of this year. Out of the 15 that were offered in phase one, we have 4 left.

Are you waiting for something? These lots will not get cheaper. In fact the owners are discussing a price increase for the near future. It won't be a huge increase and if you're a buyer, it won't stop you. But if you are undecided, write or call me and tell me why. I can't think of any reason other than lack of funds to not buy right now. If you make a commitment soon, I can lock you in to the present price. Let me go to work and get you the best deal possible on your lot.

More Sales

We've had some more lots reserved and a deposit made in the last couple of weeks. When you click on "Lots Available, Phase One," the page is not up to date. There is a deposit on lot 8, island 12. Lot 30 on the beach, lots 54,55 and 59 on the golf course and lot 34 on island 9 have all been reserved.


There's good news and bad news. We are only a year and a couple of months from completion of phase one. There are only 4 beach lots, 3 golf lots and about 37 channel lots available at present prices. Right now I can get you 15% off the list price because we are selling at "pre construction" prices. If you pay cash, I can discount the price further. This price structure will naturally change as phase one approaches completion. I'm pretty sure the prices won't drop......

Unsubscribe. www.bisbees.com November 3, 2010 Friend Us    Follow Us   Hi Everybody, It's been a wild couple of weeks, and I have to say two of our funnest tournaments yet! The fishing in Cabo was the best it's been in decades which kept us all guessing until the last minute. As it turned out, eighteen teams took home prizes between the Los Cabos Offshore and Black & Blue. Record setting crowds attended the weigh-ins in front of the Puerto Paraiso Mall. There was plenty of action to keep them entertained, and for those who couldn't attend, there was lots of coverage on the internet including a live webcam at the scales, real-time catch reporting, GPS tracking of every boat in the tournament in a "Google-Earth" type format and, for the first time in history, a live broadcast from offshore. Thanks very much to all our sponsors and everyone who attended. We had a blast! See you next year! R.

Isla San Jose, Manzana 10

Island 10 is scheduled for completion before Christmas. The channels all around the island have been excavated to depth.  The infrastructure: power, water, sewer and phones, is being installed. The banks around the island are being sloped in preparation for the rock covering.  Those of you who have and will purchase on Island 10 will be able to begin home construction after the first of the year.

If you haven't toured or haven't returned for a second tour, now is the time.  This is the fun stuff: seeing your town being built.  You will have another "I remember when" story for the grandkids.

Here's a photo showing the driveway on island 10 being built.

Bisbee's Black and Blue Marlin Tournament

If you haven't had an opportunity to go hang out at the Bisbee's tournament, you're missing quite a show. Very appropriately, the 30th annual Bisbee's Black and Blue Marlin Tournament has been a record breaker and broken new ground with some neat technology. The boats can be tracked by GPS from your computer. You can also see live video from on-board several boats. Today (Friday, 22 Aug) is the last day.

The Cabo Riviera sales booth is located directly in front of the weigh station. We witnessed some "reel" fish drama throughout the afternoon and well into the evening.  Tuesday, day 1,  was amazing.  The fish just kept getting bigger.  300 pounders up to 400 pounders and then 500 pounders.  Finally a nice 599 pound fish was weighed and looked like it just might be the winner. However, Wayne Bisbee announced that "The Great Escape" was still hooked up and had been fighting a large marlin for a few hours. The crowd refused to leave until the boat came in, hoping it would make the cutoff time of 9PM.  You can still weigh a fish but it WILL NOT COUNT after 9.  As the clocked crept towards the cutoff, Wayne gave us updates on the status of the fish. Finally at 5 minutes after 9, they made it to the dock.  As the huge marlin was wheeled towards the scale, a low murmur from the crowd turned into cheering. The fish was slowly pulled up and the scale kept climbing.  It bounced quickly past 300, 400, 500 and finally landed on 800 pounds! Although it would not be counted, the crowd of several hundred people showed their appreciation and gave the crew of "The Great Escape" a huge ovation.

October Sales Update Cabo Riviera

We're still moving property here at Cabo Riviera.
Below is the master plan. Red lots are sold, blue lots are reserved and white lots are available.  The other lots are outside of Phase One and will be available later. There are plenty of good lots remaining. If you want a certain lot that is not in Phase One, contact me.  I can make you a deal for the lot at today's price.


I've been told by some of my prospective buyers, "I'll wait until I see some buildings out there. I don't care about any discounts for pre-construction."  Very good, I understand completely. The only issue with that is availability.  The Cabo Riviera marina is completely unique in Baja Sur. You can't buy a lot on the water in a marina and dock your boat next to it in BAJA SUR anywhere except in Cabo Riviera. 


Most of us are guilty of missing good opportunities and then later regretting it.  Please take time to review the master plan. Don't wait until your favorite lot is sold.

Bisbee's Black and Blue - 2010

Just a quick reminder that the Bisbee's Black and Blue marlin tournament is coming.  October 19 is just around the corner.  The Bisbee's East Cape Offshore was a huge success this year and it's normally a predictor of how the Bisbee's Black and Blue will go. Cabo Riviera is and will be a supporter of the Bisbee's tournaments.

Make time to visit Cabo Riviera. The marina will be a sport fisherman's paradise. Keep your sportfisher by the house. Get up, walk out the back door to the boat and be fishing minutes later.

Cabo Riviera News for August and September 2010

August-September 2010 Newsletter

Bisbee's Event Cabo Riviera was the major presenters for the Bisbee's East Cape Offshore Tournament this year and a huge success for all.  There was fishing excitement all three days of the tournament starting on the very first day with a Marlin over 580 pounds caught and brought in within hours of the shotgun start.  An amazing three records were broken during this tourney with huge Tuna and Dorado brought in.  That is a great sign not only for the fishing on the East Cape this season but for the Bisbee's Black and Blue in October in which Cabo Riviera. On Saturday prior to the awards ceremony, participants of the Bisbee's tournament were invited to spend a day relaxing at a catered Beach Picnic at Cabo Riviera.  Cabo Riviera gave away raffle prizes where lucky winners won a Shimano Tallus TLT-S60M Rod with a Shimano Tiagra 50W-LRS 2 speed Reel and Sheila Marshall won next years entry fee into the Bisbee's EastCape offshore Tournament & $200 category.  A very big Congratulations and Thank You to all who attended from Cabo Riviera.  See you again in October.

Here is a sneak peak of four of our concepts. Mexico in the News Articles and news headlines have been popping up in the last month discussing Mexico.  For once, the focus has been taken off the borders of Mexico and to areas that see no crime and are wonderful places to visit or live.  The AARP lists Puerta Vallarta Mexico as the #1 best place to retire abroad for all the same reasons we have here in Los Cabos.  The SFGate lists the East Cape of Baja Sur for the best place to fish.  On the Real Estate Channel Mexico tops the list for U.S. second home owners.  Jim Cramer, the Bombastic, high-energy investment Guru and host of CNBC's massively successful show "Mad Money", gave Real Estate in Mexico a big boost this past week. Cramer told his audience: Jim Cramer bought three properties in Mexico two weeks ago. Construction Update Progress is continually moving along with majority of the focus on raising the second island of the Artist Village, filling on the oceanfront lots and completion of Isla San Jose.  The filling of the Artist Village is advancing and will be completed in 10 days.  At that time construction will then proceed immediately with levels, marking lots and forming streets.  On Isla San Jose installation of utilities has begun which include sanitary drainage, network facilities (land lines, cell phones, data transmission and television), potable water and electric.  Construction for bridge accesss to the island has also begun.  We have advanced on street construction of Baja Boulevard which allows access to the new beach club area.  Finally, we have begun construction in the quarry to harvest Laja stone for the paving of roads.  We will begin first on Isla San Jose and currently have 30% of the required material.   Sales Update Although sales have been "Summer Slow" for Los Cabos, last weekend Cabo Riviera received a very positive offer for three Oceanfront Estate lots and a Commercial Lot in the Artist Village.  A great time to come and visit us would be before the high season starts up again in mid-October.
