How We Help Owners Protect Property Value—Even When the Headlines Get Loud

On Sunday, February 22, 2026, Puerto Vallarta experienced a rare, high-tension day that rippled fast across international news—and even faster across social media. Flights were diverted/canceled for portions of the day, and “shelter in place” guidance circulated widely as uncertainty peaked.

Multiple AI-generated and out-of-context images spread online, making it difficult for families, guests and property owners to separate what was real from what was fabricated.
