"I AM READY TO MAKE AN OFFER"
After looking at your many housing options in Mazatlan, you have found the perfect place to call HOME. It may be your primary residence or a second home. Regardless, it meets all the criteria.
"What's next?"
The offer! Sounds simple enough, right? Well, it can be or it can also be an opportunity to lose the property and/or create unnecessary stress.
Basic real estate norms are in place in every country. In most cases, a seller wants to have a potential buyer, "ready, willing and able" to purchase their property. Why? To accept the offer means they are taking their house off the market to allow you (the buyer) to continue in the purchase process. This process may include exploring financing options, selling your residence back home, or simply moving money from your home country to Mazatlan.
Sound familiar? These basic real estate principles exist in the United States and Canada. These are the same principles we use in all transactions involving the Mazatlan Dream Team and Re/Max, Sunset Eagle, in Mazatlan. Unfortunately, a few foreigners come to our city believing basic real estate principles and common courtesy do not exist.
We had a potential buyer from the US interested in a house, the asking price of $249,900. He said, "Call the owner and tell him I will give him $100,000 cash!" He became very agitated when I told him I would not call the owner. However, I told him I would write an offer of $100,000 with a 10% deposit to be held in the ReMax account and present this written offer to the seller. He said, "No", his word was good enough.
We have colleagues in real estate in the US and Canada and know this is not how reputable realtors do business. Needless to say, this buyer left without purchasing anything in Mazaltan. In his mind, the "rules" of negotiating left when he crossed the border.
Mazatlan Dream Team is a perfect third party to negotiate terms between a reasonable buyer and reasonable seller. We will assist our buyers in deciding upon an offer in which they are comfortable with presenting. We will assist our sellers in also deciding whether the offer is reasonable and fair based on current market value. We follow the guidelines set up by Re/Max International, the same guidelines followed by ReMax realtors in the US and Canada. Your deposit is held safely in the Re/Max Sunset Eagle account. If an agreement can not be negotiated, your deposit will be fully refunded without penalties.
So, when you come to Mazatlan, DREAM BIG. An investment in paradise is very feasible. With the Mazatlan Dream Team's knowledge of real estate, we will make your DREAM A REALITY.
