I happen to have had the good luck to discover Baja after several trips to San Diego for professional meetings. While I fell in love with San Diego, after spending some time looking for possible real estate investments (?retirement?) I quickly learned that the value just was not there. A friend suggested a trip down to the Rosarito area, and I decided to take a look.

What I discovered was the perfect blend of relaxation and adventure. The location is close enough to home to be comfortable, while the cultural differences make for an exotic adventure.

I have found the Mexican people to be incredibly welcoming, and have had less hassle buying in Baja than I had in ANY of my real estate dealings in the U.S.A. Larry French possessed incredible knowledge of the area and guided us through the entire sales process to ensure the safe & secure purchase of our dream home..

My wife and I have fallen in love with Baja, and have never experienced any
sense of threat or danger. The media seems to have sensationalized the situation and we feel quite safe and comfortable in Baja.

I have found the food, water and hygiene to be excellent in Baja, and look forward to many, many happy visits with friends and family. I have made numerous friends, and plan to make time in Baja a major aspect of my pre-retirement life!

I highly recommend Larry for his professionalism, knowledge and attention to detail. If you are considering a purchase in Baja he will make your search productive and successful.

My realtor, Larry French of the Baja Real Estate Group, took service and knowledge to another level over any experience I have ever had in the states. He helped me bargain shop, completely oversaw the entire process, and set up some great contacts for my renovations and for getting myself settled in the area. He set up meetings with accountants, plumbers, furniture makers, mail delivery services, and much more. Moving to a foreign place can be overwhelming but having the right realtor, or in this case a great new found friend, can make all the difference in the world.
