Bahia San Jorge.......flats of black stinkin Fango.
Fango.....mud, addle, mire, rot and filth.
That shallow backwater is a catchall for all things dead and more floating garbage than any coastline in Sonora. Good for beach combing if yer lookin for skulls and bones. Behind the dunes is always good pickins for Senior Zopilote and his Mosca caca slurping buddies, as the pangueros there would rather dump their bycatch in the desert than back in the bay.
The Golden Rule for buying property in Mexico: Ask for copies of a Bank Trust or a Mexican title. Get a copy of the sellers govt. issued ID. The name on that ID must match the name on the title or Bank Trust. Take all of it, if you get it, to a Notorio to see if the property can legally be sold. Do not accept any other form of proof of ownership from the seller. It is generally believed and accepted that those properties cannot be legally sold. As Jerry related above it has been commonly owned land, an Ejido, and as such cannot be sold. Google Ejidos in Mexico and learn all about them.
I spoke to a gent some time ago who said he had a beachfront home there he wished to sell. His proof of ownership was and I quote...I have a piece of paper somewhere...... In effect he had nothing to sell.
Other than being close to La Pinta Estuary the beach is crappy.
I am also curious to buy a lot and build a house on the beach between Cholla and El gulfo.
What is the Story with the Lopez Aceves properties? Have the Edijo issues been resolved? I read a little on it but the last post was a few years ago
Any other areas or lots/ beach houses available in early developed areas?
Even east of town down toward Puerto Lobos for the right $
Thanks!!

I am very familiar with Lopez Aceves. The lots for sale have been taken out of the ejido status and can be sold with a Mex title or a Bank Trust. Only issue is the cost of a bank trust can equal the price of the lot. Also the water goes way out. Visit at low tide. Guy who frequents here should pick this up and respond. Carnac, where are you.
Santo Thomas is the closest area south of here. Jerry on this forum knows all about it. Beautiful area. Prices have come way down.
Nothing you can buy safely toward El Gulfo. Lots of Ejido land along there.
I can put you onto a nice buildable lot in Las Conchas, good paper, excellent access, all utilities at the lot line. $15K. Good ocean view that cannot be obstructed and short stroll to the beach but not beachfront. Asking price is down from $150k !!!!!
Listing prices do not include closing costs so if you are non national a Bank Trust would run on this lot maybe 7 to 8 K total. Most of the original trusts must be renewed very soon throughout Las Conchas. The current owner does not want to pay for a new trust which they would have to do, so they are motivated to sell now. If you have citzenship or a Mex spouse half that for a title.
If you are serious ,call Twin Dolphins at 602 324 7241. This is a good price for a real nice lot. Beaches are beautiful and close to the Estuary.

Try the El Mirador hotel, it's on the same street as the Pink Cadillac.
