Colinas Plus Cabo: Smart Real Estate Investment 2026
Colinas Plus is an emerging residential area in Cabo San Lucas drawing investor attention for its mix of rental income, business potential, and appreciation — with limited inventory in a growing market. Three-bedroom homes here, such as Casita Santa Inés, can rent for roughly $1,100–$1,500 USD/month, and area values have risen meaningfully since 2022 per MLS BCS data.
The Growth Behind the Opportunity
According to the Secretariat of Tourism and Economy (SETUE), via its Directorate of Informatics and Statistics, Los Cabos has stood out nationally for its growth. Between 2010 and 2020, the municipality recorded a 4.0% population increase.
Today, 55.8% of the population was born outside the state — one in two residents of Los Cabos isn't originally from Baja California Sur. Most come from Guerrero (30.3%), Sinaloa (13.1%), and Mexico City (7.8%), per Strategic Information Los Cabos, 2025.
What does that mean for real estate? It's simple: population growth drives housing demand — especially in Cabo San Lucas and San José del Cabo.
Why Colinas Plus Is Getting Attention
Contrary to what many assume, there are still opportunities to buy quality-built homes at reasonable prices in attractive, quiet areas — Monterreal, Guaymitas, Rosarito, and especially Colinas Plus.
Colinas Plus sits just 8 minutes from downtown, with two shopping plazas a 3-minute walk away — supermarket, restaurants, entertainment, and essential services all within reach. A new gas station under construction is further boosting the area's development.
And demand here is real: last year, only eight houses were listed and sold in the area, and currently there are just six active listings. Limited supply in a growing market isn't something to ignore.
Why Casita Santa Inés Stands Out
Within Colinas Plus, Casita Santa Inés captures what makes the area compelling across four angles:
A safe, welcoming neighborhood where families walk with their kids and dogs, and local businesses are part of everyday life.
Three-bedroom homes rent between $1,100 and $1,500 USD per month, supporting strong, stable cash-flow potential.
On a high-traffic boulevard with visibility for commercial use — a boutique, mini-market, or small retail concept.
Area property values have risen roughly 59% since 2022, based on MLS BCS market reports.
💡 The question worth asking: what will the price be in five years? In real estate, waiting often costs more than acting — areas that combine location, demand, and limited inventory tend to move first when the market shifts.
Foreign-buyer note: Cabo San Lucas is in Mexico's coastal restricted zone, so foreign buyers hold title through a fideicomiso (renewable 50-year bank trust). We walk every client through the trust, due diligence, and closing costs before any offer.
