If Only I Had a Place

If Only I Had a Place: An Aspiring Expat's Guide to Renting Luxuriously in Mexico, was is written for people considering moving either full- or part-time to Mexico. It offers a system, practices, and advice on how to avoid the pitfalls of renting in a country with different cultural and regulatory norms, and how to get a more luxurious place for less. More than just offering best practices, it also explains how renting properly is the first step toward the richest expat experience possible, and gives you a system to follow year after year. One of the book's most important features is a listing of carefully-vetted rental concierges who live in most of the communities most popular with expats. These rental concierges can preview places prior to committing to a rental from a distance. Support (new information related to housing, rental concierge staffing changes) is provided through a book blog on the author's website Ventanasmexico.com.
