When it comes to buying real estate in Los Cabos, some of the most exciting opportunities never hit the public MLS. Instead, they’re found in early-phase developments — projects quietly launched to insiders or through direct developer relationships.
Pre-construction properties in Cabo offer the chance to secure brand-new residences at the ground floor. For many buyers, this means better pricing, more flexible financing options, and access to some of the best inventory available in the market. But navigating these opportunities requires local expertise and trusted connections.
At Laidback Legacy, we’ve guided many clients through the full pre-construction process — from selecting the right development to working with developers, reviewing contracts, and seeing the build through to completion. These projects aren’t always obvious, but they can be some of the most rewarding investments Cabo has to offer.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does financing work for pre-construction in Cabo?
Developers typically offer tiered payment schedules — often 30–50% due during construction, with balance at closing. Some offer in-house financing or preferred lender programs.
Are there risks with pre-construction?
Yes — timelines can shift, and quality can vary by developer. That’s why it’s critical to work with a team that knows the local builders, contract terms, and reputations.
Can I rent out a pre-construction property once it’s delivered?
In most cases, yes — and some developments are short-term rental friendly. We’ll help you understand restrictions and potential returns.
Why buy through Laidback Legacy?
Because many of these deals never make it to the MLS. Our team has deep relationships with developers and can often secure preferred pricing, early access, and a smoother closing experience.
