In Belize, there is no real estate law, no licensing requirements, no regulatory oversight, and no legal obligation for listing agents to act in your best interest.

We are issuing this caution because this particular listing agent has a history of questionable past dealings, including concerns over transparency, ethics, and handling of prior transactions.

Why This Matters:
The listing agent works for the seller, not for you and may not disclose everything in your best interest.
In the absence of real estate law, you have no legal protection without your own representation.
There have been specific red flags involving this agent that raise concern for unrepresented buyers.

Important Note About Representation in Belize:
In Belize, buyer’s agents are compensated by the seller, this means there is no additional cost to you for having someone in your corner. So there is no reason not to use your own agent to represent and protect your interests.

What You Should Do:
Do not contact the listing agent directly without first speaking to your own agent.
Ask your real estate advisor about this agent’s reputation and prior conduct.
Ensure you are properly represented before entering into any negotiations or agreements.
