What is the current market value of my property?
To determine your property’s value, we conduct a comparative market analysis, evaluating similar properties in your area, current market trends, and the unique features of your home.
What factors affect my property’s sale price?
The sale price is influenced by factors such as location, size, condition, amenities, and property demand in Puerto Vallarta.
How long could it take to sell?
The time to sell varies based on market demand, pricing, and marketing strategy. Typically, a well-positioned property with an effective strategy can sell within a few months.
What is the best time of year to sell in Puerto Vallarta?
The high season (winter) is often favorable, as many international buyers visit Puerto Vallarta searching for vacation homes or investments.
What is the difference between selling on my own and through an agent?
An agent provides professional exposure, negotiation assistance, and document management, ensuring a faster, hassle-free sale.
How competitive is the demand for properties like mine?
Demand depends on the area, property type, and specific features. We analyze market interest in similar properties and help you position your property competitively.
How can I increase my property’s value before selling?
Simple improvements like paint, landscaping, and fixing visible issues help enhance visual appeal and property value.
Should I make repairs or remodel before selling?
Basic repairs are a good investment, but costly renovations may not guarantee a high return. We advise you on which improvements will have the most impact on the sale.
What type of marketing do you use to promote my property?
We use a combination of digital and traditional marketing, including social media, SEO, real estate listings, and paid campaigns on high-traffic platforms.
What does your property sales service include?
It includes property commercial valuation, professional photography and video, a personalized marketing strategy, negotiation handling, and guidance through every step to closing.
How will my property be promoted online and on social media?
We optimize your property on our website, specialized blogs, social media, and real estate pages to maximize exposure and reach potential buyers in Mexico and abroad.
How much will I need to cover closing costs and commissions?
Costs include agent commissions, taxes, and other administrative fees. We provide a clear estimate to avoid surprises at closing.
What documents do I need to have ready to sell?
Typically, deeds, identification, utility payment receipts, and, in case of financing, mortgage balance letters are needed. We guide you on obtaining each document.
How are price negotiations handled with buyers?
We work to get you the best price, negotiating always in your interest. We analyze each offer and advise you on maximizing your profit.
Is it better to receive offers in dollars or pesos?
It depends on your preferences and tax situation. Accepting dollars can protect against exchange rate volatility, but it should be evaluated case by case.
How long should I expect before receiving an offer?
In active markets, a correctly priced property may receive offers within weeks. However, the timing varies based on property and market specifics.
What happens if the buyer needs financing?
We support with procedures and coordination with banks or financial institutions, ensuring the process continues smoothly if the buyer needs financing.
What are my tax obligations when selling?
When selling, the owner should consider income tax and possible local taxes. A tax advisor can help you maximize your tax benefits.
What is the process after I accept an offer?
Once an offer is accepted, a purchase agreement is signed, followed by the initial deposit. The closing is then coordinated, where the transaction and deed transfer occur.
Can I change my mind and not sell after accepting an offer?
It is possible, but penalties may apply depending on the contract. It’s best to make a clear decision before accepting an offer to avoid conflicts.
