Testimonials

You're the guy, Shawn, and you Shine, and you make us all look good. You have a great reputation of being thorough and honest and I think that is why people keep coming to you. I really am happy to know you and your family and think it's about time we have a barbecue or something, no?

Your Canadian friend, Ted

This is a great and true story from Jack who lives part time here in Playa:

Last Saturday I had gone to the money tree and gotten $500 US in cash to loan to a friend in Playa del Carmen, Mexico where I live now. I rode my bike to my friend's house I lost my wallet from my pocket somewhere on the two kilometer journey. I had travelled through Playacar, our neighborhood, and then onto La Quinta, the main tourist drag in Playa, so the wallet had a lot of places it could visit. I sort of got real bummed about the money and especially all the id and credit cards that were lost, so I went home to sulk and have a beer. My wife, Maureen, bless her Irish heart decided to retrace my bike ride and ask every person, shopkeeper, and security guard she saw if they had seen a lost wallet.

Turns out a tourist found it on the street in busy Xaman Ha mall, gave it to the waiter at Johnny Rockets, who gave it to the manager, who gave it to security guard no. 1 who gave it to security guard number 2......who gave it to Maureen....who gave it to a very grateful me. This human chain did not have a single dishonest link. Every single peso, credit card, picture and dollar was in my wallet! Let's hear it for honesty in Mexico and the world.

Thank you very much to Shawn Bandick ,and Jorge Penkoff for their stupendous effort in finding us the land at the location, and price that we desired. We sold houses in the States, and have dealt with many people in the real estate business, but Shawn and Jorge with their friendliness, straight forwardness , and no-nonsense attitude has rendered this whole process a real pleasure.
Shawn and Jorge patiently answered our many questions and eased all our concerns.

Hope all is well in Playa Del Carmen!
We wanted to thank you for your help in the purchase of our condo.Your explanations of the ins and outs of
buying property in Mexico were very helpful.

By the time you read this, I hope everything is starting to return to normal in Playa. Myra and I can't express your level of help and insight into the Mexico buying experience. But more importantly, your devotion as our broker, is rarely seen in the states.

Your quick response to our meeting regarding modifications seems to indicate David is a very reasonable and honorable man. Again not often seen in the states. Perhaps (David) as a parent of the project, will take that extra step for his first born (us) and do what is necessary to make us more welcome than he already has. Perhaps a poor metaphor, but whatever his motivations, we are pleased.

Buy the way, the tile store closed 5 minutes before we arrived. But so it seems we will have our late November visit to pick our tile. With regard to the tile, there is one important question. Will the new color tile we chose be the flooring tile for the second full bath and the powder room? We believe it will be in the master. If so, we would need a small piece of that tile to help us match-up our choice of bathroom wall tile. So, is there a way we can get a small discarded piece -- perhaps in your next showing -- and send it to us? We can start our search up here and ultimately find its equivalent in Cancun when we visit.

Well, that's it for now. Thanks again and express our thanks to David for his flexibility.

Dear Shawn,

Thank you for spending time with us looking at condominiums. It was a pleasure working with you and we appreciate your efforts. Our offer was accepted on the property by 5th and 30th and we expect to close in February.

If this does not happen, we will get back to you.

Thanks,

Doug and Diane

We closed on our new condominium in Playa Del Carmen this past week and are very happy with it. We ended up in the north part of town, at the corner of 5th Ave and Calle 30.

By the way, although we did not end up buying through Shawn at One Stop Real Estate, he is a great guy and was very knowledgeable, helpful and professional. I appreciate the referral and would gladly recommend him to others.

Anyway, I just wanted to say thanks again for all the information and let you know if we can ever help with anything down there, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

Thanks,

Douglas A Cutler
