Market
The real estate market
Tijuana's real estate market is among the most expensive on the border, driven by buyers who work in San Diego but live on the Mexican side. Zona Río, Chapultepec, Hipódromo and Playas de Tijuana concentrate the high-rise developments and mid- to high-end condominiums, with prices that are often quoted with the exchange rate in mind.
Demand for housing from cross-border commuters and for short-term rentals keeps occupancy high in Zona Río and Playas. Nearshoring has revived the Otay and El Florido industrial parks, creating opportunities in industrial warehouses, worker housing and retail space.
Nearshoring and maquiladora expansion, rentals for binational workers, medical and dental tourism, and Zona Río high-rises aimed at professionals.
