How MyMexicoMove.com Works: Paul's Approach to Mexico Relocation Guidance
Updated: Sep 8
MyMexicoMove.com exists because Paul Green couldn't find the resource he needed when he moved from the US to Guanajuato in 2018. Not a travel blog, not a content mill churning out recycled advice, not a 'top 10 things to know' list written from a distance. Something built by someone who actually went through the process, stayed, and figured out what other people consistently get wrong. Eight years and many consulting clients later, this is what he built. (This site does use affiliate links to help fund its free resources, see the affiliate disclosure for details.)
What Makes This Different from Most Mexico Content
Most Mexico relocation content is written by people who visited Mexico, not people who live there. The information that matters most, how INM appointments actually work in 2026, what the rental market looks like in specific Guanajuato or Queretaro neighborhoods right now, which healthcare options are genuinely available for foreign residents and which are theoretical, where the biometric CURP requirement creates friction that online guides haven't caught up with yet, is not accessible from a research distance. Paul moved to Guanajuato in 2018. He became a Temporary Resident in 2019. He guides clients through current processes because he's in them.

Paid Consulting Sessions
Mexico Reality Check: $149 (1 hour)
Your specific situation assessed honestly: income qualification for your target visa, healthcare planning by city, budget realism in your target location, and timeline feasibility. Paul turns away clients whose situation doesn't fit Mexico well. If your income doesn't qualify, your healthcare needs require a different city than you've been targeting, or your timeline is unrealistic given current consulate waits, Paul says so directly rather than validating a plan that will fail. Book: mymexicomove.com/booking-calendar.
Visa Strategy Call: $249 (45 minutes)
Your complete visa path: which residency category, which consulate to use and why, how to structure your bank statement package, how the consular interview runs, and the step-by-step 2026 canje sequence. Includes a written pathway summary emailed after the call. Book: mymexicomove.com/booking-calendar.
City Matchmaker: $199
One specific neighborhood recommendation, not a city list to research further, with 2026 rental price ranges, current market conditions, a local search strategy, and a referral to a vetted property contact in that market. Paul has current networks in Guanajuato, Queretaro, Merida, Oaxaca, San Miguel, Puerto Vallarta, CDMX, and Cuernavaca. Book: mymexicomove.com/booking-calendar.

A Note on How Paul Works
Paul does not run a group coaching program, a mastermind, a monthly subscription, or a relocation company that handles your logistics end-to-end. What he offers is knowledge and honest assessment, the kind of specific, current-conditions information that takes years of in-country experience to develop, delivered in a focused conversation where your specific situation is the subject. If that's what you need, book a session. If you're still in the research phase, the free resources cover most of what you need to get started.
