- In this video I show you how my house turned out. I highlight the things the builder did and what I had to add to make the house functional. BTW folks, the money Angel has saved me on just the solar panel install was more than half his fee! Not including all the negotiating he's done for me to stretch my budge!!
Your house is lovely.❤ I hope you will honor us with a tour after you’ve furnished and decorated.
Thanks. The decorating will be a slower process, but yup! 😁
Congratulations. Looking forward to seeing your house furnished.
Well done, may you make many happy memories in your new home.
Thank you Diana! Now it's time to work on the inside! 😂
Such a lovely home. I especially liked the gardening area and the living room area (nice and roomy, but still seems cozy) with opening to kitchen.
It's simply lovely.
Thank you so much, Pam! It feels like this house was waiting for me. 🥰
The finishings thus far look very crisp. Love that Angel is there every step of the way. Ruth...the furniture lady👋🏽 Congrats Heather.
He's been amazing! His connections and willingness to fight have really helped save money and protected me from scams.
Cheers to your new home!
Thank you! I appreciate the well wishes. 😊
So happy for you Heather! Congratulations ! ! Beautiful! ❤️. This is amazing! I love the pink.🥰 Cheering you on my friend! Looking forward to next interview.😃
Thanks, Greta! It feels really good to have done it! 😄
Very nice! I like the size it’s perfect. Not too big but just big enough with all the extras for a warm weather location. A garden, a pool, a balcony and open floor plan. I love the pink paint highlights, it’s breaks up and contrasts the solid white nicely. 😊💖👍🥰🇨🇦
Thank you, Janie. I never thought I'd be living in a bright pink house, but it makes me happy 😂
@@HeatherICreateMyPath You’re welcome! The bright pink is what caught my eye first. I love Mexico for their nice people and bright colored houses. Enjoy the peace and serenity in your new home. 💖💜💚💙😊
Beautiful 😍 congrats on the house
Thank you, Lenora! It's been a focused, hard push, but I'm almost there!
Congratulations, my beautiful friend! Your home is lovely. You’ll have many happy years there. ❤🎉😊
Thank you, Vic! 🥰 I do hope you will add the Yucatan to your visit list! Hope to see you guys soon!
So very happy and excited for you. Cannot wait till it happens for us. Thank you for sharing.
I will happen! Focus on the goal! Hope to see you in the streets of Mérida soon! 😁
Congratulations on the new home it looks beautiful and we can hear the joy and genuine excitement in your voice!

Su casa está muy linda. Felicidades ❤
¡Muchas gracias! 😁
Congrats!🥳
What a great little house! Wishing you much happiness in your new home!
@Plutocious Thank you, Plutocious! I'm happily turning it into my home. So thankful to be here!
Nice home, Angel is in a Cortez video. He must be good. How much did it cost?
Thank you. I love my house! Dressing it was a lot of work! How much did the house cost or dressing it? To help folks, I did a video of exactly how much it cost to "dress" the house. When buying a new house here, it comes as a shell. I've also done a video of what I added inside. I've tried to be as transparent as possible.
I still love the pink in the front! The flooring looks pretty and the whole house looks so nice. Will you have handrails on the stairs? Will you have some closed cabinets in the kitchen? I bet you are so excited, I'm excited for you!
Thanks, Cindy! Yes, to both questions. I'll add the rails after we get the beds in, and we...or should I say, Angel already has a carpenter lined up for all the cabinets; kitchen, linen, bathrooms, and bedrooms. You're not surprised by that, I'm sure! 🤣
Congratulations 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻. Love the house 😍😍😍
Thanks! So, I closed on Friday, and my super fast internet was installed today! Thanks to Angel's connections. 😁
It’s beautiful! Congratulations 🎊🎈🎉🍾
Thank you! It feels like home! The house is now in the "dressing" phase, as it's referred to here. I've definitely got to make a video about that! There are some surprises in this phase! I'm crazy busy right now, but I'll get to it. 😂
Congratulations 🎉
Thanks, Carla. 😄 See you soon!
I love your new home 😊
Thanks Michelle. 😁
I love it! I'm very excited to make it more comfortable. Hope I've got some great neighbors!
What a beautiful home. May I ask how much it cost? Gracias 😊
Congratulations! Can you share architect and builder?
Hi, earthly. The builder communicates directly with Angel. The contractors are also part of his network. I hired Angel to manage these things for me as part of his consultating business. If you would like to connect with him, please drop me an email:
Hspilgrim@icreatemypath.com
I've gotta say, he's been invaluable and worth every penny!
Nice!
Thank you! 😁
Love It! Can't wait to have the "course" on home/car buying. You did very well and w solar and a generator you are ahead of most. Are there screens on all the windows and patios?
Thanks Tracy! There will be screens added. And of course, Angel's got a guy for that! We're going to order the solar panels today.
@@HeatherICreateMyPath Awesome. I am living vicariously through you right now. Keep the vids coming!!
Hi Tracy! That makes me happy because I want folks to see it can be done! ❤
Hi Tracy. That makes me happy because I want folks to see it can be done! ❤
Lovely. No outlets in the bedrooms for AC units?
Thank you! Yes! There are outlets for a celing fan and AC in both bedrooms. This is Mérida! Life is much better with AC!! 🔥 🔥
Congrats! I'm considering moving to Mexico for retirement. Is it true that you cannot flush toilet paper there?
Thanks Chuck. 😊 From what I understand, it depends. The sewer systems in any cities, like Mérida, are not built to accommodate toilet paper. I am told others, perhaps Mexico City, can manage it. I will say that as off-putting as it sounds, most people get used to it very quickly. We use a bit more paper to wrap the used stuff up and throw it in a little bin. Wonder if that's part of the reason why trash is picked up twice a week??!! 🤣🤣 In any case, I'm not bothered by the system.
@HeatherICreateMyPath , I've been re-watching & sharing your videos with a few people so they can see what is available in Mexico. They dont't believe me when I tell them!!!...shocking right? 😅🤣😂😁😁😄😂🙂
@Shirley-n-Maryland In the US, most of us have been conditioned to expect the worse. It sad but true. I'm glad that you're sharing this info. I do hope people give themselves the opportunity to enjoy more affordable and, in many cases, more enjoying lifestyles outside the US. It's real! 😁
