TESTIMONIALS!

“When my husband and I visited Ajijic for the first time, we were just scoping out the area with no intent to buy. This was the 3rd area we visited in 4 months. Amanda was not put off by our just wanting to get a feel for the community. She patiently took us to the different lakeside towns, giving us some background on each area, and showed us various properties. When we decided to buy, she remained patient with our decision making process. She was also very helpful in working out the many, many issues we had on the properties we wanted to buy, especially since we were back in the States for most of the process. We felt comfortable and trusted Amanda from the start. She is great at her job. We appreciate her honesty and ability to get things done. Amanda is one of those Realtors you always hope to find.”

I entered Mexico on December 2022 when the Canadian Lockdown due to Covid had been lifted with the goal of staying in Mexico for full time. By March 2023 I decided to settle in Lake Chapala.

I searched online for a Realtor for the purpose of buying a house. That Realtor ignored my description of a home and showed me places not suitable for a 78 year old single woman.

Then I stayed at the B&B Owned by Amanda Turner. At the breakfast table I chatted with another guest, she told me that Amanda is an excellent Realtor, that her services are beyond expectations. And honestly she over delivers every single time.

Amanda listened to me and the next day showed me a few properties that were suitable to my description of a future home in the area. She never rushed me while explaining the pros and cons of each house. My dream was a Mexican style 2 beds 2 baths house with plenty of space in and outside of the house, and in a price range I could afford. And wow she found it for me … the Lake and Mountains view was the cream on the cake. She accompanied me to the lawyers and the different service providers. She explained things and procedures that are different from North American standards, which further helped me to understand my dealings in and around Lake Chapala. She gives 100%.

I highly recommend Amanda Turner to any potential buyers wanting to settle in this beautiful area of Mexico. When you surf the net for the best real estate agent look for therealamandaturner.com, you’ll be surprised by her unique approach to fulfill your needs.
