Welcome to Real de Talpa
A Visionary Approach to Community and Holistic Living
Real de Talpa is more than a place—it is a vision brought to life, a community where people come together to live in harmony with the land, embrace self-sufficiency, and reconnect with their inner purpose.
As the visionary behind Real de Talpa, I, Kass Smith, am honored to present a community unlike any other. Here, we are not building a traditional development but co-creating a way of life. Real de Talpa is an evolving space where ownership is about more than property—it is about participation, shared values, and a commitment to collective well-being. There are no designated leaders or followers; instead, we each contribute in ways that align with our strengths, shaping this community together.
My personal journey has been one of continuous growth and exploration, spanning martial arts, healing, teaching, singing, farming, flying, and philanthropy. It is this passion for living fully that inspires me to support others on their own unique paths.
What makes Real de Talpa truly different is that it is not a turn-key development but a living, growing community. The journey began as a childhood dream and has flourished over the past 25 years into a thriving reality. People are already living here, cultivating the land, fishing in our ponds, and embracing a lifestyle rooted in sustainability and connection. As we continue to expand, homes are being built, and more like-minded individuals are choosing to belong.
A Community Built on Integrity, Contribution, and Shared Vision
Unlike conventional developments that rely on rigid structures and external control, Real de Talpa thrives through the active participation of its members. Each owner contributes financially through community maintenance fees, ensuring essential services such as security, maintenance, farm workers, and administration are supported. Beyond that, engaging in farming, gardening, and caring for animals is an opportunity to deepen one’s connection to the land, not an obligation.
The quality and success of our shared spaces and amenities reflect the dedication of those who call Real de Talpa home. When we contribute, we flourish. When individuals choose not to engage, the community as a whole feels the impact, limiting what we can create together.
A Shared Journey of Growth & Sustainability
Real de Talpa is Mexico’s first and only net-zero community, pioneering a way of life that values integrity, sustainability, and the freedom to live authentically. Those called to invest in this vision are not just purchasing property—they are co-creating a new way of living, one rooted in collaboration, responsibility, and respect for nature.
This is not about following a prescribed path—it is about listening to your heart, finding your own rhythm, and contributing to something greater than yourself. There is no external pressure to conform; instead, you are empowered to live in alignment with your truth while being part of a supportive, evolving community.
