Serendipity Brought Us Together – Yassine’s Professionalism Won us Over
Meeting Yassine happened sort of by chance, but whether it was fate, serendipity, or the alignment of the stars and planets, we sure lucked out. My husband and I had decided to retire early and leave the United States. Mexico was our destination of choice, but we weren’t sure quite where we wanted to be. We had visited Mexico many times, and we kept coming back to Puerto Vallarta because it seemed authentically “Mexican” – more so than Cancun, Playa, Cabo, or other expat destinations.
Once we were ready to commit to purchasing real estate, we made a trip and decided to start looking at properties. But where to start? We researched a few real estate companies and decided that MexHome seemed to have the best mix of property types – with lots of options that fit our criteria and our budget. We made an appointment online, asking to see some properties, and that’s when we met Yassine. He spent several days with us, driving us around the different colonîas, showing us all kinds of properties – mostly condos – but none of them felt like a place we could make a home.
We returned to the States, but we weren’t deterred. After chatting with Yassine (via phone calls and texts) he came to better understand what we were really wanting. He contacted us, saying he had found a few more properties to visit – could we come back to look? I was busy with work, so my husband made the trip without me. One option was a pre-construction condo project – Mangrove Living – and even though it wasn’t ready (and wouldn’t be ready for many months) – it ticked all the boxes: price, location, amenities, size, and a quiet neighborhood! We were sold!
We chose a small unit – knowing it would serve us well while we transitioned to our new life in Mexico. But while my husband was in Vallarta closing the deal, I found a second property – which fit a whole different set of criteria. Once my husband returned – we ran the numbers – and as crazy as it sounds – we decided to purchase a SECOND property in Mexico. The second property is on the complete opposite end of the spectrum. It was also a pre-construction project – but this time it was a stand-alone home, high in the Sierra Madre mountains. This property also ticked all the boxes: price, location, altitude and climate, a much larger size, and COMPLETE privacy!
We will use the house in the mountains as our permanent residence and the condo in Puerto Vallarta will be used for trips to the coast to enjoy all the delights that Vallarta has to offer – sea, surf, fabulous dining options, retail therapy – and a great place to host friends and family when they come to visit.
Yassine was a HUGE help, guiding us through the complicated (and intimidating) process of buying not one, but TWO separate properties – in a foreign country – where we didn’t yet speak Spanish. He made sure that all the paperwork was completed, legitimate, AND verified. He took the extra time to ensure that both builders were legitimate business owners and helped us feel secure in the knowledge that these expensive and complicated transactions were done correctly and thoroughly. He utilized MexHome’s team of professionals to have all documentation translated into English so we could feel 100% comfortable with the negotiations and ensured that all the details and legalities were addressed and nailed down.
Throughout the entire process, we had COMPLETE confidence in Yassine’s professionalism and expertise in the complicated world of conducting real estate business in Mexico. He is a real gem – knowledgeable, professional, and a legitimately kind and wonderful person. We cannot recommend him enough!

Peter was excellent
I came to MexHome not knowing how to buy a property. The entire team was great and when we got handed off to Peter because we were interested in making a move and not delaying he handled our tours and questions with grace and friendliness. He frequently checked in to make sure all was good throughout the entire process after we were handed off to the legal team after the offer. Can’t say enough about Peter’s kindness and how he made us feel comfortable with a new process and culture. The extra help even after the process was done was above and beyond. Thank you Peter!
FANTASTIC service & our DREAM came true
We were just randomly paired up with Gabriel when we decided to consider buying a house in Mexico. It was absolutely such a fun experience and he made all of our dreams come true by making it so easy. We loved learning from him and got the best place for us in the exact location we wanted. He’s definitely the best resource for Ex Pats who want to move or own in Mexico.
Yassine took care of us all the way
When my spouse and I decided to buy a home in Puerto Vallarta a couple of years ago we really didn’t know what we would be in for. We did a lot of research before hand but until you are on the ground looking you just can’t cover every scenario you may come across.
Thankfully we were put in touch with Yassine at Mexhome. From the very start he put us at ease with his easy going personality and knowledge of the area. His fluency in both Spanish and English also made communication and looking at any property easy.
Yassine was able to answer most of our questions right away, but if there were some he had to take away he would get back to us as soon as he had the proper information. He also had the Mexhome team at his disposal.
We looked at numerous properties all throughout the Banderas Bay area but thanks to Yassine and the Mexhome team we ended up with the home that best suited us and they did everything they could to make it a positive buying experience.
Even after the sale closed, we leaned on Yassine on several things that came up and he never hesitated on giving us a hand including taking us to the CFE office to get our account set up in our names.
I would definitely engage Yassine again should we need to buy or sell a property here in the future. He always made us feel like we were the only clients when he was with us and gave us his full attention.

Great service
Fernando was a pleasure to deal with. He is bilingual and knows his way around the area. He helped find another notaria because our bank didn’t like the recommended one(bad reviews). The day of the sale went smoother because of him. FYI bring some cash for potential surprises. After the sale, he brought us to our home and also brought us to change the utilities. Excellent 5 star service!!!

Kasia was fantastic!
Who would have thought that buying a home in Mexico could be so fun?
For over twenty-five years, my husband and I have been going to Puerto Vallarta and dreaming of one day buying a place there…. and this year we actually did it! Though truthfully, we might not have done it if it wasn’t for Kasia. She was an absolute delight to work with! Her genuine warmth and adorable sense of humor made what could have been stressful and overwhelming, so much fun. It was like spending time with a trusted old friend…she gave us much-needed advice, but no pressure, no hard sell. She was always down to earth. She kept things light; it felt like we were on a little adventure together, discovering new parts of Puerto Vallarta.
She really ‘got us’…she listened to what we had to say and figured out what we might like. And once we decided to take the plunge, she was there for us, cheerfully anticipating every step and every detail. The whole process was fantastic, and we can’t thank her enough!
