- How long have you served in the real estate industry?
An agents who has been in the business for long may be more knowledgeable about how things
are done in local market and have more odds of finding your dream home. To ascertain the quality
of their services, you may even inquire if the agent has gotten any awards for their performance.
The essential thing is ensuring they are licensed to operate in Mexico through the state of Baja
California Sur, make sure they belong to the MLSBCS. - Where is the property located?
Los Cabos is a big municipality located in the Baja California Sur peninsula. It includes Los Barrriles,
Cabo Pulmo, East Cape, Cabo San Lucas, San Jose del Cabo, among other areas. Each of these
towns are unique regarding the environment and the facilities they offer. Therefore we suggest
you ask where exactly the property is located to get the right fit for your needs. - Can we submit a lower offer than the price listed?
Sometimes the prices in real estate are negotiable. If you think the property, you are about to buy
can be offered at a lower price, do not hesitate to ask the agent whether the listed price is
definitive or negotiable. Best way is asking your agent to produce several COMPs for the last
several months. - Are there any health or safety issues I should be aware of?
Before buying a property in Los Cabos, consult with your real estate agent about any health or
safety concern you may have, such as the quality of indoor air, lead paint, mold, mosquitoes, etc.
Being informed about all these issues can help you counter them. - Can you give me some references?
When buying a property in Los Cabos, you can always ask your realtor whether they can give you
any references from previous customers. If any, make an effort to reach them and inquire about
their experience with the agent. - Can you show me similar properties in the area?
The more options the realtor has, the better for you. You want to get real value out of your
investment and not just go for any property you find in the market. Therefore, to find your dream
home, go house hunting with your agent and evaluate all your options. - Are there any zoning laws?
Knowing the zoning laws and any planned project or development in the location of your desired
property will enable you to make an informed projection of possible future changes in the
neighborhood. - Are you aware of any disadvantages the property may have?
No matter how perfect a place may seem, your agent knows best. A property inside a
development may have HOA issues, noisy roads nearby at night, or any other situation you may
not notice in a regular day tour. - Do you offer any guarantee for your services?
If after making an offer things do not work out the way you wanted, your agent should be able to
cancel the agreement. A good agent should offer you the flexibility to change a deal without any
hassles. - How long has the property been on the market?
When a property is listed for too long in the market, doubt arises. It is not necessarily a bad thing,
but you can always calm yourself by clearing any doubts with your real estate agent. Find out if the
property is too expensive, or if there may be something wrong with it.
