Cancún, Mexico — José Alberto Alonso Ovando, head of the Secretariat of Territorial and Sustainable Urban Development (Sedetus) in Quintana Roo, reported that at least 100 real estate developments in the state have been issued bulletins for selling properties without proper regulation, putting buyers' investments at risk.
The highest incidence of these irregularities is concentrated in the northern zone of the state, in municipalities such as Benito Juárez, Isla Mujeres, Playa del Carmen, and Tulum. This action seeks to prevent fraud and guarantee that real estate transactions comply with legal requirements, protecting the patrimony of citizens and promoting orderly urban development.
Sedetus, in coordination with municipalities and other agencies, has identified developments operating without permits, issuing bulletins to alert the population about the risks of acquiring properties in these sites. In specific cases, Sedetus has intensified surveillance to contain these practices, which are now punishable in Quintana Roo. The actions include inspection procedures and collaboration with municipal authorities to verify compliance with urban regulations.
Citizens are urged to be alert about where they make their investments and to inquire about the status of any property they wish to acquire.
