I used to agree jay but after our most recent transaction with them they aren't a fair intermediary they represent the buyers yet claim not to on transactional paperwork and also use their network against builders. a little manipulative.

What they might lose sight of is that banks have underwritten these HELOCs based on the owner's US income only with a margin of safety and without taking any income from the Tulum property into consideration, which therefore represents a second margin of safety.

And these deals are not being represented by RE agents.

If you went directly to the agent listing the property then ask them, and if not then ask the agent that represented you for the sale to get you the contacts for it. 

If you ever have a situation where your On Island Agent has to have interaction with your guests, you have to keep in mind this person is representing you. 

Every listing is different, most common has been 30% for the realtor representing the tenant and the rest to the landlords realtor.

I've seen similar analysis that indicates that Chinese own 10 million Bitcoins which represents about 2/3 of all Bitcoins currently in existence.  

They all represent themselves, your PM is supposed to represent YOU and that didn’t happen.This immediate situation is almost secondary to the fact your manager is being negligent with your money.

No agent in the west would ever represent a buyer and not ask for a simple sewer scope.

@Bracken Bjorn You will find a host of agents here that specialize in representing out-of-state investors.
