Most people buying on this coast make the biggest purchase of their lives on a price nobody can verify. You shouldn't have to. With MexicoLife, you won't.

What you get
- Every comparable sale, shown to you. Before you offer, you see what the last units in that building or street really closed at, how long they sat, and what they were asking before the price cut.
- A team on the ground, in two offices. Puerto Vallarta and Bucerías. English and Spanish. Someone who picks up the phone and meets you at the door.
- Numbers published with their source, every month. Our market reports come from the official Vallarta–Nayarit listing record, with the source and date on every number, whether the numbers help us or not.
Who we are
We hear it on every first call. You love the place. You are quietly afraid you'll be the one who overpays, in a market where the rules are not yours.
Here is what we bring. We're a licensed, family-run brokerage, members of AMPI, Mexico's real-estate association, since 2004, with offices in Puerto Vallarta and Bucerías. We hold every listing, price change and closed sale on the Vallarta–Nayarit MLS since 2010. We built the market-truth reports because no one else would publish them.
How it works
- Get the real numbers for the building or area you are looking at. Sold prices, how long each took, what they asked before the price cut.
- Tour your shortlist with the numbers in your hand. You decide what a place is worth before anyone tells you.
- We run the close. Offer, notary, the bank trust (fideicomiso) foreigners use to own here, attorney, title. In English and Spanish, with you at every step.
Which buyer are you?
If you're coming from the US or Canada
You're not buying a condo. You're buying a decision you'll live with for twenty years, in a country you don't yet know. Have you ever wondered whether the price you were quoted was the real one? Start with the sold history, not the brochure.

If you're Mexican, here or in the States
You know Mexico. You don't know what this coast really trades at, because asking prices here were set for foreign buyers, and nobody publishes what homes actually sold for. We do. Same report, same numbers, in English or Spanish, whether you're in Guadalajara or Houston.

Have you ever wondered whether you overpaid for a place in Mexico? We know how it feels to buy blind in a market you don't know. MexicoLife shows you what every comparable home really sold for before you sign, so you become the owner who knows the numbers, and you never guess about your Mexican property again.
In their words
★★★★★ "We were uncomfortable and nervous about purchasing without speaking Spanish. John addressed every concern, connected us with a money transfer company, and their daughter Kenzie helped us find the perfect condo. They were there for every step."
— Glen Grady, retired buyer, May 2024
★★★★★ "We've known John and Christie for 10 years. When we decided to sell our home, we knew exactly who to call. Listed in January, one showing, and sold."
— Laurie Bolin, home seller, March 2021

Quick answers
How do I know if a Puerto Vallarta asking price is the real price?
Compare it with what comparable homes actually closed at. We hold every listing, price change and closed sale on the Vallarta–Nayarit MLS since 2010, and we give you the sold history for a building or street before you make an offer.
Can a foreigner own a home in Puerto Vallarta or the Riviera Nayarit?
Yes. In Mexico's coastal restricted zone a foreign buyer holds residential property through a bank trust called a fideicomiso, set up by a Mexican bank and formalized by a notary. We run the close: offer, notary, fideicomiso, attorney and title, in English and Spanish.
How much inventory is for sale on the Bay of Banderas right now?
About 2.6 years of homes, condos and land at the current pace of sales. Of the listings that ended in the last two years, 36 in 100 sold and 64 left the market unsold. Source: Vallarta-Nayarit MLS, 14 September 2026.
What is the Love It or List It guarantee?
If the home you bought through us turns out to be the wrong one, we sell it for you and charge you nothing to sell it, when you agree in writing to buy your next home through us.
Do you work with Mexican buyers and in Spanish?
Yes. Same reports, same sold numbers, in English or Spanish, for buyers in Mexico or abroad, from our offices in Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco and Bucerías, Nayarit.
