PLAYING A LITTLE CATCH UP IN CHELEM

It's been a busy few weeks for Mayan Living. We have been in finalizing all of the paperwork to become the official owners of the company, now it is official. Doug and I and Sean and Susan own our own company in the Yucatan! We are all working endlessly to make the best real estate company in the state. Susan is hard at work on marketing materials, Sean and Doug are gathering up as many new listings as possible and we are all wearing many different hats these days. We are also in the process of hiring some new professional agents. Anyone interested?


Here we are at the final closing. From left to right is Juan Cardena our notario, the former owner, myself, Susan, Doug and Sean.

Here are signatures in the "Big Book." That means it is now official


In the midst of this Doug and I are having a wall built around our house, here is the 1st day.

The guys digging the foundation so the wall remains strong.
Eduardo and his crew working on the side wall
And the front wall

In the meantime, life goes on at the beach. Denyse and Paul from Canada rented one of our friends homes in Chuburna. They woke up one morning to see a mother turtle just finishing laying her eggs.



With her job done she slides herself back into the beautiful Gulf of Mexico. And yes Colleen and Earl, this is in front of your house!

Next posting is about......you guessed it, another party in Chelem! Until then, warm breezes and cold beers coming at ya, Chillin in Chelem!

GOING TO THE NEXT LEVEL IN THE YUCATAN!

I know that I have been a bit negligent the past couple of weeks keeping my posts up to date...... A lot has been happening here, our friend Dan from Florida came to check on his house, Curt from Georgia came to check on his, Jan from Belize is here now to have some medical things done in Merida, Robin came for a visit and cut and colored my hair, and it goes on and on! The real estate market is really winding up for high season and I am spending hours a day on the phone and answering emails. More and more people are looking for a simpler, easier life and Mexico is the answer! Things move slower here, it's a gentle, easy pace and the cost of living is much less. We who live at the beach enjoy small town life, we like picking up shells, watching the palm trees sway and the cooling Gulf breezes, walking our dogs on the beach and meeting up for cocktails at our favorite hangouts. We also love the proximity of Merida only a half an hour away, Merida is known for it's excellent inexpensive medical care, culture, wonderful people, shopping malls and excellent places to eat. We have the best of both worlds!

But the big news (at least in my world) is that Doug and I and our friends Sean and Susan have just purchased Mayan Living Real Estate! We have been meeting almost daily putting our business proposal and marketing plan together. We are so excited and have so many ideas. We are going to be hiring some more agents to expand our territory as well as expanding our services. We want to provide the best customer service and have the best reputation of any Real Estate company in the Yucatan.

If any of you are interested in becoming an agent or have suggestions I would love to hear from you! So thats it for now, more to come later..........Chillin in Chelem
