Our beautiful Puerto Morelos is a place many dream of calling home. With our town growing, it is important to know about some challenges that come with this growth.
Recently, state officials found many irregular real estate developments that may be illegal across Quintana Roo, including some that could affect our community.
Protecting Your Piece of Paradise
The state agency, Sedetus, which stands for the Secretariat of Sustainable Urban Territorial Development, announced they found 116 irregular real estate developments this year.
These projects were spread across different towns in Quintana Roo. Puerto Morelos was one of the areas where these issues were found.
This discovery is all about protecting you, and our neighbors. Sedetus wants to make sure families do not fall victim to real estate fraud.
They aim to prevent people from losing their money or facing legal problems with their property.
What Does "Illegal" Mean?
When we talk about "irregular" or "illegal" developments, it means these projects do not have the proper permits or approvals.
This can lead to big problems for anyone buying property there. You could end up with land that isn't legally yours, or a home that isn't safe.
These findings help everyone make smarter choices before buying land or a home. It helps avoid legal risks, financial losses, and damage to family savings. This is especially important in a growing area like Puerto Morelos.
Your Local Shield: The Sedetus Microsite
To help protect you, Sedetus created an easy-to-use website. You can visit this site to check if a development has all its necessary permits. This tool lets you see if a property follows all the rules.

A Community Effort
