A little about us!
My New York Times Interview about Mexico City!!

Tu Casa Real Estate has been opening doors since 1993. Originally, our specialty was first time buyers who spoke limited English. We had to overcome many obstacles as there was a almost no bilingual loan officers, inspectors, or escrow officers. We essentially became a trusted resource for the community.
What's excites us, is how the Hispanic community has gained a higher knowledge of the buying and selling process. This allows fewer people to be taken advantage of.
Tu Casa Real Estate has become the "bridge" that connects these buyers with sellers. With 30% of all first time buyers being Hispanic, sellers appreciate that we offer end to end bilingual services. We are able to reach a niche that many overlook. Our marketing is in both languages. We also advertise in the general community and in Spanish publications plus our whole staff is bilingual. Not to mention our great client base that keeps referring us.
Our Services to you!
We are qualified to handle residential sales of any nature. Single family homes, duplex, large multifamily units. Small acreage to large ranch properties.
Currently we are having success working with investors and private money for the purpose of buy&sells or buy&holds. Being on the "front lines", we have gained a unique insight into how buyers think which is very valuable when not all properties are selling! This has also allowed us to also do BPOs for several organizations.
Commercial transactions that include lease negotiations, the selling of business opportunites, and the sale of commercial buildings are a few other examples of our services.
With the current market, we have had to be more creative. Rent/Lease to Own, Land Sale contracts, seller carry backs all allow families to acheive their dream of homeownership. Having over a decade of experience, we have the experience to handle potential buyers that fall short of conventional financing. In our community we are lending our support to many non-profit organizations in the fields of housing, youth mentoring, parents of disabled children, schools, neighborhood associations, and immigrant rights.
Extra info!
All pics on my bio are taken by us. The main pic for my bio is a few us standing in front of the Angel of Independence in Mexico City. Our sister office is one block away from this Historic Landmark. This picture is the view from a home in Acapulco, Mexico. I took it myself.
