We spent some time on the phone with Uriel, the Marketing Manager for "Realtors Puerto Vallarta". On top of Uriels, great personality, we were impressed with the company's "marketing-first" approach. Being that they only deal with properties over USD $500, this approach is important. There are far too many brokerages out there that over-promise but under-deliver when it comes to marketing. These folks are very clever and make sure that their properties are seen by their target demographic.
If you're selling we highly recommend getting in touch with them to see how they would do better than their competition.

I’ve got very lucky to meet Jose Moreno who became my RE broker and a dearest friend! He directed me to the best neighborhood and helped me to purchase a house that I love! He also made all process fast and easy and helped me every step of the way after the purchase. Jose is very organized and responsible professional, who has a good heart. He is the best RE broker that I’ve ever worked with! - Natalie S
Being in international first time buyer, I was both skeptical and apprehensive to buy real estate in Puerto Vallarta. As luck would have it, Jose Moreno and I crossed paths. The nightmare in my head disappeared quickly and my journey from beginning to end was amazing. Jose was there each step of the way. Not only did he go beyond what was necessary during the process but a year and a half later he remains a great source as I continue to navigate my new life there. I was blessed. - Tony McCormick

First of all; we love that JRE is open on the weekends. Know that all the winners on this list truly are great, regardless of their position on this list. But if you can only find time to go see houses on weekends, this is the team for you.
We spoke with Mariana, who was very easy going and broke down their operations for us. She explained that they have 8 buyer reps and their representatives only work with one client at a time in order to ensure personal service.
We liked this company's attention to their google page and social media. They care about building and maintaining a solid and visible reputation. In our experience, these are not only the companies to work with today, but for years to come, as they are focused on the long-term, not short-term wins.

Ok so, you’re a US citizen and want to buy a pre-construction condo in Mexico during a pandemic!! I’m here to tell you that it was one of the most challenging adventures we have ever embarked on and we could not have done it without the help of our amazing realtor, Hector Garcia (and we’re not first time home buyers). From the very start he was hands on in every aspect of the buying process, always answered our calls and questions with in minuets no matter what day or time. Honestly, we could not have found or bought our slice of paradise without him!! We would definitely recommend him to anyone looking to buy in Puerto Vallarta or surrounding areas even during a pandemic!! 5 STARS Hector. Thank you so much. G & M - Gary G
I loved the service I received, from start to finish, I highly recommend it! - Kailina C

We had a conversation with Christie, one of the owners. And to be Frank, it was a conversation and a debrief worthy of first place on this list. Christie treated us like she would a million dollar buyer (we assume). Even though she has a team of 7 people to manage and deals of her own to close, she spent time explaining what sets Mexico Life Realty apart from other brokerages. But really, she didn't need to. We felt it just in the way we were treated.
When we asked them what the biggest mistake someone could make when buying in PV, Christie explained that a buyer should look up the AMPI (Asociacion Mexicana de Profesionales Inmobiliarios) accreditation of the company they're thinking of working with and speak to past clients, rather than pay attention to facebook recommendations, which can be popularity contests or paid referrals (agencies pay active FB users to recommend their agencies).
We thought this a very logical and insightful response that could help people save thousands if not millions.
And while we may be biased on this last point, this firm is owned by Canadians. And who doesn't like polite Canadians?!

Shirley at Mexico Life was excellent, very supportive, full of information and answered all my questions right away. I felt very confident and supported making this purchase. I highly recommend this company. - Linda M
I wish I could give John & Christie 6 stars! We sold our home in Bucerias through them and the great team at Mexico Life Realty. Our home sale was not a straight forward simple sale and had many hiccups and difficulties but John & Christie handled everything like the true professionals they are. They explained and guided us through it all. They handled the difficulties exquisitely and sometimes we didn’t even know there was a problem on things because they handled them so well. They have been in the business long enough to be experts in handling the difficult situations. Without a doubt I would recommend John, Christie and the Mexico Life Realty team to anyone looking to sell or purchase realty in the Puerto Vallarta bay and surrounding areas. - Michael G

We had a great conversation with Salvador. If all agents at this firm are as good listeners and humble, I can't imagine your experience at Sol y Luna Realty to be anything less than Marvelous. This business has been around for a long time and has a lot of its own product including houses, condos and gated community properties. They understand trends such as the importance of the main bedroom on the main level seeing as anyone buying for the long term, or retirees are not interested in climbing stairs anymore. When we asked Salvador what one of the biggest mistakes he sees buyers make, he explained that not having an investment strategy before buying an income property was something he was seeing a lot of. Salvador prides himself on assisting in the planning portion of the purchase, not just assisting in buying.
We asked about the lack of reviews on their google page. They were very honest about not having made enough effort to seek out reviews to their page. This makes bad reviews stand out much more if left and is something they're working on.
