Real Estate License in Mexico

In Mexico, as opposed to the USA, Canada and other countries, executives are not required a state license to promote and represent you on a real estate transaction, Here at Selva & Co Realty we have two ways around that to ensure your peace of mind. First, we have a Mexican standard business license and are legally able to operate as a broker. Second, before any type of legal commitment, Agreement or LOI, a legal representative is highly advised to ensure the property you are considering is legally marketable with no encumbrances. In this case, Selva & Co Realty can recommend a list of attorneys including First American Title Services.

The Condo Market

Playa Del Carmen and the Mayan Riviera are currently experiencing an unprecedented boom in the Resort Condo Market. In the last 5 years the Mayan Riviera has growth significantly and thus getting the attention of many developers who are looking to profit by building outstanding properties with resort amenities, quality interiors, ocean views among others. Most resale properties in the area where built 5 to 7 years ago and where not built with today’s demand in mind, lacking basic amenities like parking, a decent kitchen, elevator, etc. This has led us to the conclusion that the true-value of the market today is on the pre-sale and brand new developments. This are all properties who are being built with style, creative layouts with wide spaces, ocean views, amenities of a luxury hotel, spa-fitness centers, pools and gardens even having an elevator do make a difference.

The Re-sale Market

The resale market in Playa Del Carmen is a complex subject that requires a special attention. Due to the ambiguity of the market, working with re-sales can be a challenge for you the buyer, especially when you deal with a Non-regulated real estate market. Sellers are not required to abide to a code of ethics and practices and in most cases list their properties with unrealistic prices with no grounds; in most cases is a matter of pure speculation, there are also cases where the seller is trying to sell a unit with no title, liens or encumbrances. This situation can be time consuming for you the buyer who is not aware and familiar with all the steps. Here at Selva & Co Realty we have the solution for you. Just as on the MLS search, we can work with re-sales that pass our highest standards whether construction, location or legal status as well as other factors like being reasonable priced. This would ensure you deal with absolute safeness and peace of mind when considering a Resale unit. Contact us today to learn about our buyer representation services.
