Working with Karen and her team on the sale

Working with Karen and her team on the sale of our house could not have been better. Their experience and understanding of the different pieces that need to come together to have a deal completed surpass others that we have worked with in Cozumel and would not hesitate to fully recommend their services for purchase or sale!
They are The Best!

I have been coming to Cozumel for almost 27 years

I have been coming to Cozumel for almost 27 years so I know my way around the island. We’ve stayed at all inclusive hotels, time shares, rentals from other realtors on the island. We are headed down for Carnival this year at the last minute. Was recommended by a acquaintance/ friend to call Karen Bloemhoff. Reached out to her and once we got our dates down it was Bada Bing Bada Zoom (Eezie Peezie) with paper work.
Wish I found her years ago.
Thanks Karen

My wife and I had a wonderful experience

My wife and I had a wonderful experience working with Karen and her team. This was our first time buying a property in Mexico and Karen helped us navigate the entire process with ease. We always felt that she had our best interest in mind and made sure that we understood all the details and requirements clearly. We're super happy to have a place of our own in Cozumel and Karen certainly helped us in making this dream possible.
We highly recommend Karen!!

We knew that we wanted to find a house in Cozumel

We knew that we wanted to find a house in Cozumel, but of course we were hesitant, not having ever bought a house in a foreign country. We researched more than most would, and Karen Cozumel Real Estate just kept coming up, with the best selection of properties and great reviews. Knowing that helped, but we were still skeptical.
We made the trip to the island and were introduced to Alejandra Pacheco. She was knowledgeable, easy to talk to and thoroughly professional. Within 2 days we had found our dream house and she negotiated a great deal for us. Karen returned to the island and walked us through the process and together made this a an easy and stress free purchase. We could not have hoped for a better experience. We moved into the house ahead of the anticipated date and are living a dream. Ale and Karen have been there for us every time we have called, above and beyond the sale of the house.
As you can tell we are so happy we found them. We don't often post reviews, but it is our honor to post this one.

If I could give Karen 100 stars I would.

If I could give Karen 100 stars I would..
In the past I worked with 2 other realtors on the island and neither came close to her.

Karen represented me in the selling of my house that I built in 2008 and in the subsequent purchase of a condo in town.
She is incredibly busy but I always felt like I was her only client.

As a foreigner, there is no way that I could quickly learn the nuances of Mexican real estate transactions and the laws. Not only does Karen have this expertise but she works with the best notarios and banks who actually execute the contracts.
She is honest and detail oriented, and she is patient.
She might know that something isn't in the best interests of her client, but she lets the client come to the understanding without being pushy.
This all takes time on her part but in my case, I never felt pressured. I appreciated that she stayed on top of everything and that both closings took place when she predicted they would. This wasn't easy as there were outside things that she didn't have direct control over (e.g, coordinating with the notarios, the closing and opening of fideicomisos with the trust banks, the timely transfer of funds from foreign banks, etc).

I feel like she is well respected in the real estate communit, and this is why she is able to expedite what needs to be done.

Besides being professional, Karen is a good person.
She realizes that the selling and buying of homes has an emotional component for the client. She is supportive and truly works hard to make sure the client gets what he or she looking for at a fair price.

While not a critical point, I feel that in addition to being happy with Karen's work, I have gained a new friend in the process.

Although I have lived in Cozumel for 23 years, this was my first purchase of real estate.

Although I have lived in Cozumel for 23 years, this was my first purchase of real estate. I waited a long time to find just the right house, at just the time, at just the right price.
Having lived in Cozumel for so long, I know all the realtors on the island.
I contacted Karen as soon as I decided to make an offer.
Her reputation for professionalism and expertise had skyrocketed over the previous 5-10 years, leaving the others in the dust.
It just didn't make sense to go with anyone else. I soon experienced what everyone raved about.
Karen assigned my sale to her associate Ale (Alejandra) and assured me she, Karen, would be overseeing every detail. Ale was wonderful!
After the sales agreement was signed, she facilitated an additonal viewing of the house, so that I could start planning my move.
It was clear that it was going to be a super smooth transaction, thanks to Karen and Ale.
They made excellent recommendations when there were choices to be made and walked me through everything step by step.
It didn't make sense for me to use anyone else and, in my opinion, it doesn't make sense for anyone else to choose a different realtor either.

We bought a house in Cozumel with Karen and Alejandra in August 2021

It was the best experience ever!
These 2 ladies did all the work long distance and it went so smooth. We just came back for closing and everything was done in an hour.
They answered all our questions and concerns.
And in this process we became great friends. They helped us after closing also with all the great recommendations on remodeling, building a pool, service and choosing a great property manager.
We will definitely do business with them again and recommend to everyone!

My wife and I recently decided to buy some property on Cozumel.

Karen and Ale were beyond helpful and incredibly professional. They held our hand through out the whole process, and instructed us on all legal procedures in Mexico. We absolutely loved our experience with them and have already referred two other clients to work with them!
Thank you ladies!

When we first decided that it was time to buy a Cozumel home

When we first decided that it was time to buy a Cozumel home, we must admit we were overwhelmed. Karen Bloemhoff was recommended by two American friends who used her services to purchase their home in paradise.  Knowing little about the market, the buying process, and the area we wanted to buy, finding a patient real estate agent was critical.

When we first met with Karen, all of the pressure and confusion seemed to subside.  Her talent and guidance helped us find the home we were looking for, and for that, we are incredibly grateful.  She has exceptional and thorough professional skills, and most importantly, Karen has outstanding ethical behavior, treating all parties with the utmost respect and courtesy.  She made sure we knew all aspects of the purchasing process, making an offer, negotiations, and closing phases - all with total transparency.

Being unfamiliar with the purchase process in Mexico, Karen’s charismatic attitude and overall welcoming demeanor helped ease our nerves and allowed us to explore various possibilities.  She was extremely patient while providing us guidance.  Without hesitation and with extreme patience, she answered the same questions, over and over again.  She always delivered what she promised and when she promised it.  She worked with us to find us what we wanted, even if, at first, we weren’t quite sure what that was.  Being honest, sincere, and supportive, Karen let us know what was available and in our price range.  We cannot thank her enough for being flexible with her availability and always being there when we had questions or needed reassurance.

Without any reservation or hesitation, we recommend Karen Bloemhoff and her company, Karen Cozumel Real Estate.

Should we buy again, she will be our go-to person for that next experience.
