"One of the best ways to find a place to live in Monterrey is to research online. Popular websites such as Airbnb, VRBO and Home Away offer a variety of rental listings from apartments, condos, houses, and villas. Additionally, online forums, such as Mexico's largest expat site Mexconnect, can provide valuable information about housing options in Monterrey. In addition to online research, it is also advisable to contact local real estate agents, who can provide potential renters with more personalized housing options and insight into Monterrey's real estate markets," wrote a member who made the move to Monterrey, Mexico.

"We needed an area that was convenient to my husband's job. The plant he works at is outside the city in an area that is not very nice, so we had to strike a balance between amenities and convenience. We bought our property so we also wanted to find an area where we thought that prices may rise over the next few years. We ended up choosing a property in an undeveloped area on the outskirts of the city. It was particularly appealing as we knew the surrounding areas were earmarked for development. We also have the convenience of having the green areas of the countryside on our doorstep, with the convenience of the city just 5 minutes drive away," explained one expat living in Monterrey, Mexico.
