Study reveals what expats REALLY think about living overseas

Jason Waller

Name of Your Company or Organization: Playa del Carmen Real Estate
About Me: We got tired of the Winnipeg winters so my wife and I decided to pack up, sell everything and move to Playa del Carmen, with our then 4 year old daughter. Fast forward 10 years and we now own our real estate brokerage and are loving life with our now 15+ year old daughter and 5 year old son whom was born here in Mexico. Life is good in paradise....

As the broker I deal both with the clients and maintain all the behind the scenes activities with our agents. We work as a team so our agents always have back up when needed and we can help to make the buying process as easy as possible for all our clients.

We have agents from Canada and Mexico so that we are able to handle all kinds of investors from all over the world. We try to be as laid back as possible when dealing with clients, as it is a big step to buy a property in a foreign country. We handle all aspects of real estate from condos and homes to restaurants and resorts. We are your one stop shop for real estate in the Riviera Maya
