Testimonials

Meeting and getting to know Darryl and Michelle at Baja Sun Real-Estate has been the best possible experience we could have hoped for when we started looking for a house in San Felipe. We had visited the area many times before deciding to look at available houses and were fortunate to be introduced to Darryl for some tours. It was clear that he and Michelle have the most complete knowledge of the local market and in getting to know them we discovered they were just great people who took an interest in setting us up with a property which was the best choice for us. Their excellent guidance gave us the confidence to purchase a beautiful house which has worked out perfect! The thorough managing and “hand-holding” they provided made the process very smooth. We now count Darryl and Michelle as two of our closest friends and it is always a pleasure to visit with them and do so as often as possible. We feel fortunate to have become a client and friends of Darryl and Michelle at Baja Sun Real-Estate and recommend them highly!

I am not a business person and do not even know the English language as well as I should in order to write this recommendation. I had no idea how to begin when it came to selling our vacation home at the El Dorado Ranch. When someone gave me the name of Darryl McDonogh I was scared to death to do business with a total stranger. Everything had to go via email or regular mail (I am too deaf to use a telephone). The last time we stayed in the house was in 2006. We had to leave in a hurry because my husband got very sick and wanted to go to his own doctor in the United States. I had no time to clean up in and around our house. From the very first email I got from Darryl, I felt a lot better. Darryl had a look at our house. Told me what had to be done to make it sell-able. He offered to take care of everything, so that I absolutely did not have to travel to San Felipe during the whole process. I knew ahead of time everything he had to do and he kept me up to date at all times. When it came to the final sale he explained every form that I had to fill in and how to return the notarized documents (by express services). By now I consider Darryl and Michelle as very helpful friends. They know all the rules of the business very well and have a very clear way of explaining it. The whole experience was very nice.

My mom hired Michelle to help her sell some lots she had in Mexico. We could have never completed the transaction without Michelle’s knowledge and expertise. She quickly responded to our questions and helped us navigate the Mexican real estate laws. Michelle is awesome!

My wife and I had been looking for a Mexican home for over 2 years. Needless to say we spoke and met with several realtors over that time. None came even close the level of professionalism as Darryl! He is far and away the very best that we had dealings with.
He understands all the ins and outs of his market, knows each and every home that is on the market. Darryl went way out of his way to show us each and every home that we wanted to see and suggested others that we did not know about. He knew everything there was to know about these homes and had all the information in his head, not in some binder he had to look at, and was ready to answer any questions, and offer insights. He is a great people person, is as honest as the day is long and I can not say enough good things about him and his service. I will use him again, I highly recommend him to anyone even remotely considering buying a Mexican home. I consider Darryl not only my realtor, but my first friend in the Baja!!"

My casa in La Ventana del Mar had been listed with El Dorado Ranch for quite some time. Darryl McDonogh was recommended to me as a realtor who would give me a fair and honest opinion of value and then work hard to sell my casa. We settled on a listing price and Darryl went to work immediately to find a buyer. After just a few months we had the casa sold at a fair price. During the process I was extremely impressed with the level of Darryl's expertise regarding the intricacies of Mexican real estate and tax laws. He guided me through the process without a single problem. Without hesitation I recommend Darryl and Baja Sun Real Estate to both sellers and buyers. They are the go to real estate agency in the San Felipe area.

Darryl McDonogh served us well in every way. He was a great communicator with both sides of the sale; he watched out for our best interests by anticipating things we were not likely to think of; he was knowledgeable, honest, straightforward, and responsive. We sincerely appreciate Darryl's expertise and professionalism.

Darryl McDonogh is possibly the BEST Realtor we have had the pleasure of working with. We live in Oregon and were not readily available for all the necessary transactions needed to purchase our property in El Dorado Ranch. Darryl went above and beyond the call of duty to take care of all the details for us. He patiently answered all of our many questions and explained everything in detail. Our transaction went smoothly and we couldn’t be happier! Thank you Darryl, for a pleasant experience in purchasing our first property in the Baja!

Michelle did more than a great job for us…she sold our place, and trust me ours was not easy to sell; and she did it in an extremely difficult market. Further, the transaction was seamless for us, we live in Northern California, and everything was handled without us there. She has our unequivocal recommendation.

Best agents no one better period.
