The absolute worst real estate agent ever! My husband and I worked with Cristina Aleman when she…read morewas the seller's agent while we were buying property in Isla Blanca. At every step of the process Cristina either tried to sabotage the sale or get a kick back. On multiple occasions Cristina and her husband, Fernando, approached the notary for a kick back and told the seller she received the full 5% commission, instead of splitting it equally between the seller and buyer agents.
In addition to her efforts to introduce side deals into our sale, she lacks a basic understanding of real estate transactions. She did not understand Escrow nor the requirements involved with transactions involving foreigners and the need for a fideicomiso (the trust required for foreigners owning beachfront property). Because of Cristina's incompetence, the seller relied on our agent for everything.
Avoid any real estate transaction involving Cristina Aleman or her husband, Fernando, at all costs. The only thing she did right was show up to closing on time to collect her commission. She is the type of fraudulent person giving Mexico a bad reputation.
