Honesty. Integrity. Service.

We were looking for property in Manzanillo and had a verbal referral to
Mexican Bay Real Estate – Gerry Szakacs. Unfamiliar with real estate
agencies in Mexico, we made contact with Gerry. We were extremely
delighted with his eagerness to find us the right property to meet our
needs. When we arrived, he met us at the airport and true to his word,
in the next week, he showed us many houses that met our criteria. We
are now property owners in Manzanillo and are extremely happy with
the property that Gerry sold us.
We highly recommend Mexican Bay, Gerry and his wife Dorothy, to
address your real estate needs. He knows the area, understands the
property transfer processes and is a well known and highly respected
business man in the Manzanillo community. We were so impressed
with his honesty, his sincerity and his 100% focus on our needs, that
we are proud to call Gerry and Dorothy close friends.

We have worked with Gerry Szakacs since we decided to buy a condo in Manzanillo. He was so helpful
with all our questions about owing something in Mexico – we knew absolutely nothing. He handled our
closing without any problems – it was smooth sailing with Gerry. He is a very special guy – the qualities I
appreciated most about Gerry is his honesty and straight-forwardness. We refer everyone we know to him.

inviting personality and genuine concern about people.
On a professional level, Gerry is best described as professional, dedicated, determined and honest! He
has embraced Manzanillo and Manzanillo has embraced him. Gerry is extremely knowledgeable about the
area and of the real estate rules and regulations in Mexico.

When I came to Manzanillo to purchase a condo I worked with 3 realtors. Gerry by far worked the hardest
and was the most informative. He also on my behalf steered me away from buildings that he felt didn’t
offer as secure of an investment. After closing on a purchase, Gerry went far more than the extra mile to
assure things went smoothly on the final paperwork of the sale not only saving me money but also time
and stress as well as airfares. I highly respect his integrity, honesty and commitment to doing the job right.

We recently purchased a property in Manzanillo, MX. Working with Gerry at Mexican Bay Real Estate.
Gerry’s knowledge of the local real estate market was excellent and he was very helpful and patient
showing us a variety of properties available, taking time to understand what we were looking for. His
service extended to assisting us in connecting with the local authorities needed to assist with preparing a
bank trust and closing the sale through a local Notario. As we are currently living in Canada and speak very
little Spanish, Gerry’s assistance and prompt responses to our enquiries has been very helpful. We are
now the proud owners of beach front property in Manzanillo!

We have known Gerry as a close neighbor and friend ever since he came to Mexico.
We consider his integrity above reproach, and I have never seen anyone so willing to help out complete
strangers.

My husband and I had the good fortune to work with Gerry when we selected Manzanillo as a possible
retirement area. After meeting with him and letting him know what our parameters were for a retirement
home, he showed us exactly what we had requested. We were able to negotiate the entire transaction,
with the current owner and Gerry within 30 minutes and had bought the house of our dreams. The entire
real estate transaction was seamless and conducted in a timely manner. We would highly recommend this
firm to anyone thinking of retiring in the Manzanillo area.

Please let this letter serve as an acknowledgement as to the excellent job you did of representing us in the
sale of our property. Your continued and diligent follow up in processing the title documents and keeping
all sides of the transaction informed were of great assistance in swiftly closing the sale. It was a thorough
pleasure in working with a real estate professional that understands the inner workings of the Mexican real
estate market. I look forward to working with you again on the sale of one of our properties.

We would recommend Gerry at any time. For attentive and personal service in Manzanillo, he is the realtor
we look for the most exposure for our properties for purchasing or selling. His attention during the sale
and in the final paperwork makes it so much easier to complete the transaction.

I would highly recommend the services of Gerry and Dorothy Szakacs. They not only helped me find and
buy my condo here in Manzanillo, but have been managing it for the past two years. I am only here for
about six weeks every year and the rest of the time they take excellent care of my property. I have been
renting my unit here in Puerto Las Hadas to other vacationers and Gerry and Dorothy take care of all the
little details, laundry, cleaning service, transportation in from the airport etc. to ensure that the needs of my
guests are met. In short it affords me great peace of mind when I am not here. Gerry and Dorothy are
friendly, honest people and I value their support and friendship a great deal.

When my partner & I decided to move to Mexico, our main concern was to find a realtor who we could trust
spoke English as well as Spanish. After searching the web for a long time, we finally hit on Gerry's site.
After communicating with him and his lovely wife Dorothy, both by email and telephone, we finally had a
date to come to Manzanillo to start looking for property. Gerry met us at the airport and took us to our
hotel.( Not very many realtors would do that.) We spent several days looking at all kinds of property and at
no time did we feel that Gerry was getting fed up with us, or wasting his time. We didn't find the right
house yet, but with Gerry's help we know we will within the very near future. Both Alan and myself
recommend Gerry highly, and have given his name to several of our friends here in British Columbia and
Alberta. Lots of Luck !
