Querencia Pre-Construction Homes: Ocean-View Value in Cabo
Querencia — one of Los Cabos' most exclusive private golf communities — currently offers a select group of pre-construction homes ranging from about $2.7M to $18.9M USD. Buying pre-construction here lets you secure an ocean-view estate at today's price, customize the finishes, and benefit from the corridor's strong appreciation before the home is even complete.
Why Pre-Construction in Querencia Is a Genuine Opportunity
Most buyers chase finished, turnkey homes. The savvy ones look at the math — and at timing. The San José Corridor, the stretch covering Palmilla, Querencia and Chileno, is among the most expensive luxury markets in Los Cabos. According to 2025 reporting on the corridor, the average home price climbed by roughly 40–44% in a single year, into the high-$5M range (different market reports cite averages from about $5.78M to $5.88M for 2025).
That's exactly why pre-construction is so compelling here. Buying early lets you lock in today's pricing, choose your finishes and layout, and let the community's appreciation work in your favor while the home is being built. In a market moving this fast, securing your spot before completion — rather than competing for finished inventory later — is often the smarter financial move.
⛳ Querencia: top-ranked golf in Mexico. Querencia is an 840-acre private residential community between Palmilla and Costa Azul — no hotels, no resorts. Its original Tom Fazio course (now Campo Bajo, Fazio's first design in Mexico, opened 2000) has been ranked the #1 golf course in Mexico by Golfweek and has appeared in Golf Digest's World's 100 Greatest. A second Fazio course, Campo Alto, is slated to open in late 2026 — another reason early ownership here is so well positioned.

Buying Pre-Construction — and How We Help
Pre-construction is a different process than buying a finished home: deposit structures, build timelines, finish selections and payment milestones all matter. This is where working with a team that knows the community and the local building landscape pays off. Our agents help you compare phases, understand what's included, and time your purchase — so you move forward with clarity instead of guesswork.
Foreign buyers, take note: Querencia sits inside Mexico's coastal restricted zone, so non-Mexican buyers hold title through a fideicomiso (a renewable 50-year bank trust granting full ownership rights). Total buyer-side closing costs typically run about 5–8% of the purchase price, including trust setup and related fees. We'll walk you through the exact numbers and the pre-construction payment schedule before you commit.

Yes. Because Querencia lies within Mexico's restricted zone, foreign buyers purchase through a fideicomiso — a 50-year renewable bank trust that grants full rights to use, rent, remodel, sell and inherit the property. It's a standard, decades-old structure used across Los Cabos.
Querencia is purely residential — no hotels or resorts — across 840 private acres between Palmilla and Costa Azul. Its Tom Fazio course has been ranked #1 in Mexico by Golfweek, and a second Fazio course (Campo Alto) is slated to open late 2026. That combination of full privacy and top-ranked golf is rare even within Los Cabos.
