Selling your Property

The team at REMAX VIP Cayo have decades of combined experience from working within the
property industry. We will guide you through each step of the sales process and work closely
with your Attorney or Conveyancing Agency while providing regular updates and proactively
moving your property sale through to completion.
Our marketing is clever, thorough and designed to net as many qualified buyers as possible.
Professional photography and copy write, search engine optimisation and social media are all
part of a tailored approach to selling your property as quickly as possible. If something isn’t
working, we make calculated changes so your property doesn’t stagnate. Affiliations with other
agencies means we can widen the net and be assured of generating maximum interest.

Having your ducks in a row before your property hits the market is incredibly important in
achieving a timely, smooth sale. Remember, the money won’t be in your account until the title
is transferred and holdups such as out-of-date surveys and misplaced documents can cause
extensive delays. Our processes are designed to mitigate issues that arise, as quickly as
possible.

Listing Agreement: An agreement to list, market and sell your property will be done formally as a legal document to ensure both parties have a clear understating of expectations. Full, legal names and certified copies of identification for all owners or one person with power of attorney, must be supplied.
Land Certificate, Deed of Conveyance or Transfer Certificate of Title (TCT): You must provide a certified Land Certificate, TCT or Deed of Conveyance with the chain of documents establishing ownership.
Property Title: You must have proof of clear title for the property as a title search will be conducted by the buyers attorney to confirm the property is not encumbered by any mortgages or liens.
Taxes and Utilities: You must provide an up-to-date land tax statement and proof of payment.
Ensure your property taxes and utilities are maintained throughout the sale.
Property Survey: A copy of the official property survey is required. Understanding access rights and boundaries are core to ensuring your property will sell. In some circumstances, surveys can be out of date (hand drawn) and not acceptable to the Belize Land Registry. We can arrange for a new survey to be conducted. Costs vary dependent on the size and topography of your property. Costs are paid by you directly to the surveying company.

You are our client first and foremost, however, we will assist the buyers to ensure their due diligence progresses as quickly as possible. Depending on the quality of documentation provided, the process can take a year and, in some cases, up to three, for the Belize Land Registry to transfer the title deeds, so it’s important we are proactive to avoid delays where ever possible.

Purchase Agreement: We will provide a legal purchase and sale agreement clearly stating the terms and conditions, purchase price and all details relevant to your unique property and requirements.

 If the buyer is a foreigner, the transaction may require approval from the Central Bank of Belize, this is primarily the buyer’s responsibility but important to note as it can cause delays. However, Central Bank Approval is not required if the property is also owned by a foreigner.
