What Our Riviera Maya Real Estate Clients Are Saying About Us

Arturo D.
My wife and I knew nothing about the Riviera Maya but contacted an agency where David worked. Even before we got to Playa del Carmen, we were in close contact with him to discuss our preferences. David was patient and extremely well informed and knowledgeable about the entire Riviera. Once we arrived in Mexico, David took us everywhere from near Cancun to Playa to Tulum. It was a great orientation and his tips were invaluable. We wound up making an offer on a condo in Playa and David played an instrumental part in ensuring that we knew what we were getting into. He was spot on in all his advice and made life a lot easier. The sale went through smoothly and David was always available to answer our questions, provide advice and the like, even after the closing. I highly recommend David and believe in his ability unconditionally.

I have known David for a few years now and have found him to be an outstanding resource for the Riviera Maya real estate market. David greatly assisted us initially in determining where and what to buy amid the enormous choices along the Caribbean cost of Mexico. He continued to help us during the construction process and well after the sale. Even three years later David has stayed in touch with us and has advised us on the rental market in Playa del Carmen. David certainly is a professional that goes well above and beyond to make sure his customers are successful. We have & will continue to recommend David for anyone purchasing a property in the Riviera Maya market.

We are so impressed with Living Riviera Maya’s agent Beatriz Mendoza. Because of Beatriz, we feel extremely comfortable purchasing in Mexico. Beatriz possesses excellent communication skills – she thoroughly addresses all our concerns. She delivered solutions to all our inquiries. She spent quality time with us, really getting to know us and ALL our needs and wants. Beatriz is professional and thorough, she left no stone unturned. She is also friendly and fun to spend time with – Beatriz is the best!

Thank you, Living Riviera Maya, for making our experience a pleasant one!

Judy, I just wanted to send you a quick note to thank you for setting me up with Rafael for my condo purchase. As a Cdn taking this leap as a single female is very nerve racking. I can't thank you enough for assigning him. The week I was in town Rafa took very good care to setup viewings and explain the benefits of the area. I ended up with the condo I'm excited to get delivered in the fall (assuming new estimate is on track). The best part is he helped with the legal email setup so that I can move the purchase forward and alway responded promptly to my whatsapp messages or emails. I could not have asked for a better agent for this process and I hope that he and I will remain friends post-delivery of the unit. I have told others here in Toronto area about your firm if they decide to buy they must use your firm. Thank you again If you ever expand to the west coast in a few years when I go for the big spend of a 2bdm waterfront I will want to use you again

Good afternoon Judi, I just wanted to send you my feedback regarding my experience with my Agent with your real estate firm... Rafael Mandujano was partnered with me to help find me a property in Tulum that best suited my needs. As a fourth time property owner, but first time foreign buyer it was a little nerve racking for me! Rafael gave me all of the information I needed to feel confident in this process and transaction. He was knowledgeable of the properties I chose as my top picks and was able to weigh out the pros and cons of each property, so I was able to come to a final decision. He has even gone a step further in keeping in touch with the Builder and sending me photos and videos of the current project construction progress. He’s made me feel great about my vacation property purchase and I look forward to doing further transactions and referring friends!

Dan and Lori, Alberta Canada
We highly recommend Judi Shaw to anyone searching for property in Mexico. We are from Canada, and with little to no Spanish skills. Judi, as our bi-lingual real estate agent, made the search for our dream property in the Playa del Carmen to Tulum corridor an exciting and stress-free experience. We found that Judi listened to our wish list for the type of properties we were looking for and showed us many within in our price range. Not only did Judi show us properties but she also gave us brief tours and commentaries of the areas we were in; such as distances to golf courses, how to get to the beach, restaurants and other points of interest.
Judi is also very well integrated. She found us a friendly and trustworthy lawyer that took care of all of our legal matters and answered all of our questions promptly and completely; all for a fair fee. And, Judi introduced us to a property manager that has far exceeded our expectations by shopping for furniture and completely outfitting our condo. All three of the people on our team are the best and we consider them our friends.
After committing to our purchase, virtually all of our dealings were done by way of email from Canada; a huge time and money saver.

Marcel and Stella from British Columbia
My wife and I decided to purchase a condo on the beautiful Island of Cozumel. Buying a property can be stressful enough but when it comes to making an investment in another country, the stakes get much higher. Judi relieved much of this added stress by explaining the complete process in detail so we would not encounter anything we were not ready for. She was patient and took the time to suggest various condos that she felt would fulfill our needs. Fortunately, we found the gem we were looking for. From there the process was taken care of and Judi made sure that we were protected and that nothing was omitted. If you are looking to purchase a property around Judi’s area, I would consider you call her. It will be the first best decision you will make.

Rich A from Boca Raton
I’m an investor and have worked with Judi Shaw on many multi-million dollar deals down in Mexico. I must say that Judi has always been the most knowledgeable agent and also displays the utmost professionalism. Judi is truly the best real estate agent that I’ve ever worked with and I’ve had a wonderful experience on all the deals she has put together for me.

Matt and Lizz, Sweden
Coming from Sweden we needed all help we could get to guide us through the whole buying process. Sandra Sorensen at Living Riviera Maya was really great! Very helpful, easy to contact and perceptive for all our needs. She went far beyond our expectations and had all connections we needed. We will definitely consult Sandra at Judi Shaw’s Living Riviera Maya again and are proud giving her our very best recommendations. Thanks Sandra!! We absolutely love our new condo!

Kevin G from Toronto, Canada
Dear Judy, I wanted to take a moment to express my deepest appreciation for your support and efforts this past month in my search for a property in the Mayan Riviera. As you well know trying to find a new property that fits your needs in another country can be difficult. Trusting an Agent you have never met before in another country also has its risks given the high degree of ethical and legal conditions one needs to fully understand in an unfamiliar market.
I cannot thank you enough for being my eyes and ears in our search and negotiations, and caring to understand what I needed not just what I wanted. You have been honorable in fully disclosing my financial and legal risks and guiding me to an exceptional lawyer who has protected my legal interests and also treated this transaction as if it were his own. Thank you for caring for my best interests, your exceptional knowledge of the market, and the properties in the area, your patience, diligence, and personal efforts to help me through this property search. Your professionalism and partnership is beyond reproach.
I will recommend you to anyone looking for property in your market. Together we have been a great team and I feel I have found a new friend and someone that always has my back, Thank you Judi !

Elisa and Mike From Seattle
