The market value of your Los Cabos property is not what the house next door is listed for. It is what buyers have actually paid for similar homes in your community, adjusted for your view, size and condition. Price it right in the first weeks and you get the most attention; price it high and the listing goes stale.
We help U.S. owners in Cabo San Lucas, San José del Cabo and the Tourist Corridor price and sell their homes using real data from the Los Cabos MLS. Here is how value really works in our market, with the numbers.

| ~$505 per sq ft: Pedregal, the lowest of our 8 communities |
~$1,370 per sq ft: Cabo Real, the highest |
2.7x price gap between the most and least expensive community |
Median asking price per square foot of active home and condo listings in the Los Cabos MLS. See the full comparison in Best Neighborhoods to Live in Los Cabos.
The first question is not "how big is my house," but "where is it." The same 3,000 sq ft home can be worth more than double in one community than in another.
| Community | Median price per sq ft | Area |
| Pedregal | ~$505 | Cabo San Lucas |
| Club Campestre | ~$510 | San José del Cabo |
| Quivira | ~$565 | Cabo San Lucas |
| Puerto Los Cabos | ~$830 | San José del Cabo |
| Cabo del Sol | ~$1,030 | Tourist Corridor |
| Querencia | ~$1,125 | San José del Cabo |
| Palmilla | ~$1,170 | San José del Cabo |
| Cabo Real | ~$1,370 | Tourist Corridor |
These are asking prices, not sale prices. Use them to see where your community sits, then confirm your value with closed sales.
Asking prices tell you what sellers hope for. Closed sales in the Los Cabos MLS tell you what buyers paid. Compare homes in your community, sold recently, with a similar size, view and bedroom count.
| Factor | Why it changes the price |
| View | Ocean, Arch or golf views are what most U.S. buyers come for |
| Beach access | Most of the Pacific side has strong surf, so a swimmable beach is scarce |
| Golf and club access | Private golf, like Querencia or the Cove Club in Cabo del Sol, adds value |
| Condition and furnishing | Turnkey homes sell to buyers who want to use or rent from day one |
| Rental history | Documented rental income helps investors justify the price |
Buyers compare your home with what is for sale this week. If three similar homes in your community are listed for less, yours will wait.
The notary will need an official appraisal for the sale. It is used for taxes, not to set your price, but it is a useful reference.
Your real number is what you keep after tax and costs. Read How Do I Sell My Property in Cabo? to see how ISR works for U.S. sellers.

Compare recent closed sales in your community with a similar size, view and condition. Asking prices alone are not enough.
In our 8 main communities, the median asking price goes from about $505 per sq ft in Pedregal to about $1,370 in Cabo Real.
Usually not. Overpriced homes get fewer showings in the first weeks, when buyer interest is highest.
No. The appraisal (avalúo) is required by the notary for taxes. Market value is what a buyer will pay.
