Casa Diamond in the Rough in Las Tunas

Questions buyers actually ask

Is the house finished?

No. It is described as approximately 80% complete, so what is being sold is a substantially built but unfinished house. The completion scope, its cost, and its timeline are the heart of the review, and they should come from your own builder walking the structure rather than from a percentage.

How big is it?

Three bedrooms, two full baths, and a half bath, with 291 m², about 3,132 sq ft, of air-conditioned interior and 441 m² in total, on a 2,028.25 m² lot. It is a two-story structure of concrete and block construction with concrete floors. Measure those areas against the drawings before you price anything.

What is already built?

Patios, terraces, a deck, a sitting area, a storage area, and perimeter walls or fencing, plus an extensive rooftop that the description presents as the property's best space. Ocean views stretch across the horizon, and both recorded outlooks are sea views. The terraces and rooftop are exactly where waterproofing and railing inspections matter most.

What is not there yet?

The home is offered unfurnished, and a refrigerator is the only appliance recorded, which is consistent with a house still being finished. Budget the kitchen, the fixtures, the finishes, and the appliance package as your own scope, and get the remaining work quoted before you set a price.

Which utilities serve the property?

CFE electricity, trucked water, and a septic system, with ceiling fans and a tank water heater. Access is by maintained unpaved road. Confirm what is physically connected today, what the septic system was sized for, and what water storage exists against what the finished house would need.

What is the setting like?

Las Tunas is a neighbourhood within the Todos Santos locality, close to beach access, with parts of it moments from the sand. That beach is open Pacific and we do not describe it as swimmable; for swimming or surfing, Playa Los Cerritos is about a 20-minute drive. Dining and shopping in Todos Santos are a few minutes' drive, the town centre is a few minutes away, and Highway 19 is a few minutes' drive.

How is title held?

Through a fideicomiso, the Mexican bank trust used by buyers who are not Mexican nationals in the coastal restricted zone, with BBVA named as the trustee bank. On an unfinished house, ask how the trust interacts with the completion work and the permits before you sign. Ask early whether the existing trust is being assumed or a new one issued, what term remains, and what the annual trustee fee runs. Structures, costs, and timing vary by buyer, so confirm the right path with your own attorney and tax advisor before you commit.
