Ronan McMahon is a global real estate scout. He spends six months of every year on the road, finding and negotiating opportunity to buy low and make serious profit from capital appreciation, rental income, or a mixture of both.
He does this both for his own personal real estate portfolio and for members of a small and exclusive group called Real Estate Trend Alert. Only this group get details of the best deals he finds worldwide—in Latin America, Europe, and Asia.
One of his biggest strengths is identifying markets that are due for an upswing in values—but where other investors aren’t looking yet.
He’s called it right countless times over his two decades of real estate investment and scouting:
Like 2000 in Ireland, ahead of what became known as the Celtic Tiger, a period of unrivaled and historic economic growth for the country—and its real estate market.He called it again in Panama, in 2004, when he predicted that values in Panama City were about to spiral quickly.
He did it in Northeast Brazil, in 2008, when the market was on the precipice of a huge rise in values.
And he was ahead of the big growth in Tulum on Mexico’s Riviera Maya, in 2009, when few investors had gotten in.
Ronan also knows how to spot the right crisis market—where a buyer can get in cheap now but profit massively as values return to where they should be…or even exceed that. He knows how to wait for the right “trigger moment” to play a crisis market.
He did that in Ireland, following its crisis in 2009. He bided his time to make a recommendation until 2011 when the first auctions started in the country.
Then he did it again in Spain and Portugal: This time, it was fire sales that provided the trigger moment, in 2013.
He acted again in Cabo, Mexico, in 2015, when a rare convergence of circumstances meant you could lock down a luxury home for a fraction of its true worth.
In each of those cases, a buyer who followed his recommendation could have doubled their money or more.
These are the kinds of buying moments Ronan McMahon identifies. Of course he spends six months out of every year taking research trips to get to those deals. That’s the difference between Ronan and some other so called “real estate experts.” He puts his money, his time, and his shoe leather into hunting down and negotiating the best deals worldwide, so that members of his group can profit.
I've considered buying one of these villas myself. I've pored over floor plans and done the math. Cabo is now my winter base. I already own a condo in Copala. I love spending time here. I've already seen fat paper gains on my condo (more on that in a moment). And, I've generated rental income from my condo over the summer months when I was in Europe.
Your members-only price of $501,865 is an enormous $152,350 lower than retail list price on these villas. And a massive $258,134 lower than the asking price on a similar resale Copala villa close by...
On Friday, five RETA members can snap up villas in Copala at Quivira, a five-star resort in Cabo. We can buy with an enormous $152,350 discount on retail pricing. That kind of offer is compelling. But the profit is just one side of this proposition. On the other side is a unique lifestyle play that I'm taking full advantage of myself.
With only four villas available at this killer RETA price you'll need to act fast this Friday. (There's also one other villa at a slightly higher price as it sits on a bigger lot so you get more outside space.)
The global population is exploding; the UN predict it will be close to 10 billion by 2050. All these new mouths to feed is putting increasing pressure on food production. And the land to produce the kind of quantities needed is scarce...
Just over three decades ago, the Chinese had a nickname for beef. They called it "the millionaire's meat." Today, many of those same people, who subsisted for years on a diet of grains like rice and wheat, are eating beef multiple times a week.
I expect the condos we have available to be snapped up straight away on Thursday. It's happened before with every Gathering sneak peek...each time it's gone the same way—once I open the deal every available condo is snapped up almost instantly.
In a matter of days I’ll open our latest RETA-only deal—the opportunity to own just steps from a Caribbean beach in Akumal, at the heart of Mexico’s Riviera Maya.
I recorded this on my phone last week, right before our annual RETA Gathering. I am standing in front of the spot where you have the chance to buy luxury condos with RETA-only pricing of just $174,800 in a community with private beach access....
I'm told 25 million passengers passed through Cancun airport last year...from Europe, North America and beyond. Millions of vacationers heading to and from one of the world's most beautiful stretches of coast. (I'm in Cancun airport as I write, after our fifth and most successful annual RETA Gathering to date.)
