These two- and three-bedroom units are priced starting at approximately $180,000 U.S. However, for budgeting purposes, buyers should consider that, as is the practice in some areas of Méexico, the units will be delivered without finished kitchens, closets, or air conditioning units.

Changes Coming to the Electric Company
According to Francisco Vargas Garibay, the chief operating officer of Innovación Solar, there are important changes coming to the federal electric commission that will impact users of solar panels and may be a further incentive to convert to solar energy. These changes will allow home owners whose panels over-produce to convert their credits into cash in the future. Currently, a home that overproduces simply acquires credit to be applied to future bills. Innovación Solar installs on-grid, off-grid, and hybrid solar systems throughout Los Cabos.
