Why Ocean Puerto

We don't list everything. Exclusive mandates are our signature.

We work under exclusive mandates, directly for the seller, not through a chain of intermediaries. It is how we sell faster and at a better price: one agency, one consistent message, one price on the market. For buyers, it means first-hand information on the property, its documents and its terms.

— Antoine Volatier, founder & CEO
  1. 01

    Fair price

    Every asking price is checked against recent comparable sales before we accept the listing.

  2. 02

    Clear title

    Escritura pública or acta de posesión: the legal status is shown on every property, before the first call.

  3. 03

    Exceptional location

    21 neighborhoods we know street by street, from Bacocho to Agua Blanca.

Off-market

Not everything we sell is on this site.

Some owners prefer to sell discreetly, so part of what we have is off-market. Through our network we can also present properties that are not published here. Tell us what you are looking for and your budget: we will send you what fits, published or not.

Buying property in Puerto Escondido

Can foreigners buy property in Puerto Escondido?

Yes. Near the coast, foreign buyers hold titled property through a bank trust (fideicomiso) or a Mexican company. We explain both options before you make an offer.

What is the difference between escritura pública and acta de posesión?

An escritura pública is a deed registered with the public property registry. An acta de posesión documents rights over communal land. The legal status is shown on every property we list.

Do buyers pay a commission?

No. All commissions are included in the price.

Can I buy without being in Mexico?

Yes. We have closed sales entirely remotely, with video tours, a legal review, contracts signed on recognized platforms, and a power of attorney or electronic signature for the final deed, depending on the case.
