INDEPENDIENT REAL ESTATE ADVISOR · PUERTO VALLARTA, MEXICO.

This is not a sales pitch.

Most real estate in Puerto Vallarta is sold by people who need you to buy. I work differently — I represent you, your interests, and your long-term outcome. Nothing else.

If you want someone to show you listings, I'm not your person. If you want someone to tell you the truth about this market before you spend half a million dollars in a foreign country — you're in the right place.

Because paradise isn't found — it's negotiated.

Why Herman

I came to this market differently than most — and I came back to it deliberately.

The Analytical
Foundation

Capital markets before real estate.

Five years as an investment banking analyst structuring capital markets and finance transactions — public and private sectors. I evaluate property the way I evaluated investments: with rigour, clear risk assessment, and a long-term view. That discipline doesn't turn off when the asset is a condominium in Amapas.

The Entrepreneurial
Track Record

Built. Raised capital. Sold — during a pandemic.

14 shareholders. A luxury brand built in London from concept to acquisition. Sold to a major competitor at a time when most businesses were simply closing. I know what it means to have real skin in the game — not just advisory distance from it.

Puerto Vallarta
Since 2007

Not a posting. Not a discovery. Home.

I first came to this market in 2007. Through London, through business, through everything — I came back every year because I missed this place specifically. I returned full time in 2021. Two decades of watching this market move gives you a perspective that no amount of research can replicate.

The Credentials
That Matter

Dual licensed. Legally fluent. Both sides of the table.

AMPI and NAR certified. Diploma in Real Estate Law — one of the few advisors in this market who holds it. And having represented boutique developments on the sell side, I know exactly what the pitch looks like from the inside. Which is why I don't use one.

That combination — finance, entrepreneurship, legal clarity, and two decades in this specific market — doesn't exist anywhere else here. It's why my clients call me before they call anyone else.

The 2026–2027 pre-construction market in Banderas Bay has real opportunity — and real traps. Permit gaps. Water moratoriums. Developers funded entirely by buyer deposits.

This is not a brochure. It's a due diligence manual written by a buyer advocate who also builds projects himself.

Free. No fluff. 13 pages of what sophisticated investors actually need to know.

Before you sign anything — let's talk.

This is not a sales call. It's the conversation you should have before any sales call.
