A LITTLE BIT ABOUT US
IXTAPA-ZIHUATANEJO, VIRGIN PARADISE FOUND
Properties in Ixtapa, Zihuatanejo and surrounding areas
I decided to move to this magnificent corner of the earth after getting to know the wonders that this tropical landscape has to offer. The people consist of a wide variety of interesting individuals from all over the planet. The food is by far the best I have tried, even after visiting the six continents. The wildlife is the best I have seen without having to be secluded in the middle of a rainforest. A wide variety of activities and entertainment throughout the year, allowing to have something to look forward to each day. A pace of life that is laid back enough to allow us to enjoy each moment. The cost of living within reason of what I considered things should cost, allowing us to live like a king. Finally a million-dollar views for a quarter of the price. What more can one ask for in life? We had found heaven on this earth and that is how our story of life in Ixtapa-Zihuatanejo begins…
Costa Grande Real Estate
An idea that was formed after experiencing the process of being new to this foreign town. I spent hours, days, months, trying to get adequate assistance to become relocated into this area, which was not an easy task being from a different country with different systems, language, culture and society. After finding the right places to go, meeting the right people, and understanding how this place worked, I knew that I could offer the service, not only of finding one’s piece of paradise under the sun, but I could offer all additional services under one roof. After a few years, Costa Grande Real Estate grew to Costa Grande Legal Service and Dissol Construction. Today our bilingual team offers assistance to new and existing residents in the areas of Law, Construction, Accounting, Banking, Immigration and US and Mexico Notarial services.
