There is nothing better than receiving sincere thanks from my clients for a job well done. Some of my clients have shared their thoughts with you below.
Thank you for your submission!
We first met Riccardo Garcia in the fall of 2003. We took 6 months off and drove to Mexico and Belize to see where we might want to invest our money into a vacation home.
We decided on Cozumel, because of the people, the beautiful water and ease to snorkel off the shore!
We looked at some used homes that needed some renovations and that’s how we met Riccardo. He showed us a few and told us what would need to be done and estimated costs. We drove back home March 2004 and decided we just weren’t quite ready to invest in foreign property.
In 2005 we started looking again. Luckily for us a new construction condo project fell thru in April 2005. We continued looking on the internet and finally in July, 2005 we went onto Cedral’s website and saw a virtual drawing of a set of 5 homes that were to be built in the area of town that we were interested in buying. The price seemed reasonable and we started looking into the dimensions of the lots and picked the one that we figured would fit a small pool in the backyard. We emailed Riccardo and asked what we had to do to purchase Lot D. We also had him price out the pool and made some changes to the house design. He priced out the upgrades and emailed back to us quite quickly and we emailed back “YES” and wired a deposit. In September 2005 we flew down and met up with Riccardo and the Notary to sign all the documents. While we were there we also got to pick out our tiles for the floors and backsplash in the kitchen. The construction on our place started almost immediately with an estimated December 2005 possession date. Riccardo was good about sending us pictures of the progress! Then Hurricane Wilma hit and the construction came to a halt. Riccardo emailed that due to the storm our house would be delayed by about 2 months.
In mid February 2006 we flew down and took possession of our new home! Riccardo helped us with the final documents at the Notary. He helped us get all the utilities in our names, get the registration at the Municipal office, bank trust, etc…. Without his knowledge and excellent English this would have cost us a lot more money. We trusted him and took his advice on how to set everything up.
There are little things that we would have changed, if we would have been in Mexico during the build, but on the whole the whole experience went quite smoothly and we are still the happy owners!
We have stayed friends ever since and always try to get together when we are in Cozumel. He even came to Canada and stayed with us for a week!
In summary we found that working with Riccardo and Cedral Homes was a great experience and would gladly recommend him and his company to anyone considering investing in Mexico.
They are very knowledgeable very detailed and very professional. Not to mention just a lot of genuinely really good people!!. Our purchase and closing went so smoothly (better than the US) and they were with us every step of the way!!! We wouldn’t consider using any other agency.
Cristina and Riccardo and the Cedral team helped us with the purchase of our dreams in Cozumel. They are professional and responsive. They explained every last detail in an extremely thorough manner. Everything from the first time we met to look at properties through the offer and closing went very smoothly. We would recommend them to anyone looking at property in Cozumel! Thank you!
After 14 years owning my home it was time to sell. Delfina was fabulous! She walked me through the entire process (which was challenging as a US citizen selling a home in Mexico.). Everyone on the team communicated well with me and each other. They jumped through hoops getting me appointments with the tax office in another state and found an accountant there that could help me with that process as well. They really went above and beyond to save me the most in taxes and sell my home quickly and efficiently. Many thanks to Delfina, Ricardo and the rest of the team. I would absolutely recommend Cedral to anyone looking to buy or sell in Cozumel.
Ricardo and Christina helped us in purchasing our Casa with ease and explained the entire process. I can not express our gratitude more strongly, nor go with anyone else. Their approach was with our best interest in mind.
For an easy, safe, pain-free process Cristina and her team are the best. She is a 'local', so she literally knows everything you need to know, to live comfortably in Cozumel. No question went unanswered and no message was ignored. She did not hesitate to point out imperfections she saw in each home we visited, so there were no surprises. I knew what I was purchasing and I am more than happy with what I purchased, with the help of The Cedral Team. I couldn't recommend anyone better.
Caribe Realtors did a great job. I was fortunate to work with Christina Romero and she was amazing. I was very happy I found them when searching for a home in Cozumel. Communications, responsiveness and engagement were all 100% to my satisfaction. I purchased my home remotely In the US after going with Christina to view and decide I wanted to buy. The company was highly engaged the entire time and took care of getting all the paperwork completely efficiently and quickly. If you are in the market for a home or condo, check out Caribe Realtors!!
Moving to another country and purchasing a home is more than a little daunting. Thankfully in Cozumel we found Christina Romero with Cedral Caribe Realtors. Christina and Mark really took time to show us different properties and neighborhoods and explain the intricacies of purchasing a home and living in Mexico. Once we found THE house for us, she and her team worked closely with us, explaining everything in detail throughout the process. We love our new home and HIGHLY recommend Christina and the Cedral team!
We started our journey to find our dream house in CZ a few years ago with another real estate agency. Due to lack of communication and never feeling like a priority we reached out Cedral Caribe. Cristina Romero instantly had ten homes lined up for us to see. After finding a home at a great location, we signed a contract. Unfortunately, the seller and his real estate agency could not provide documents needed to close. Even with Ricardo Garcia Corona’s amazing efforts to help obtain the documents for the seller and his real estate agency we decided to give up on the property and start over. Immediately, Cristina found us another property and we closed within six months effortlessly. Cristina was always positive, hard working and patient with us. Ricardo’s knowledge of the buying/selling process put us at ease every step of the way. We would highly recommended Cedral Caribe for any and all real estate needs.
Cristina Romero is absolutely the best!!! She was patient while she showed us 13 properties over 3 days until we found the perfect house. Their team watched over the entire process to make it a simple process. Thank you Cristina. We love you.
