5 key reasons to hire a Professional and Licensed Real Estate agency in Mexico

Did you know only 5% of Cancun Real Estate “Agents” Are Actually Licensed?

With ocean view properties at compelling prices, it’s no wonder that is a rising demand from Americans in relocating to Cancun. While there is no shortage of real estate agents ready to offer their services, there is a concern regarding how many of those “agents” are in fact licensed to sell.

The official real estate association of Cancun reports that there are currently 3,500 offering real estate services, out of which only 5% are duly certified. However, according to Quintana Roo state law and regulations regarding real estate services, only those certified under SEDATUS (Secretaría de Desarrollo Territorial Urbano Sustentable) are legally allowed to provide real estate services.

When buying a property in Mexico, it is essential to hire a Professional and Licensed Real Estate agency.

There are several advantages to hiring a certified real estate agency in Quintana Roo, especially for those unfamiliar with the area or the buying process in Mexico. Here’s how a certified agency can add value to your experience:
