Real estate agents here arent like they are in the states.  It takes them weeks to get back to you if they even get back to you
Realtors dont own a listing like in the states , its a free for all.  Have you try driving around to the areas you are interested in pr the puerto rico classifies?

You gotta go there and drive/ walk around and talk to the local folks.

Using / getting a realtor is a relationship. A lot of realtors will not give a mainlander the time of the day because they come for a few days and go without purchasing and then disappear for several months only to come back and deal with a different realtor.

If you want to buy a place in PR, you will be better served by renting a place for 6 months to 1 year while you look for the perfect property.

Also buying a property in an area you do not know is a very expensive mistake. Until you live in the island for a while you do not really know how well or bad a particular area is.

Also people coming to buy in a rush usually end up overpaying for the property by large percentage of money (20-40%). If you ever want to sell the property at a later date, likely you will loose a lot of money, there are few buyers and plenty of homes in the market so selling can take years even after massive discounts.

You can contact Eddie N*** cell phone ***, well known realtor in Cabo Rojo area. He helped my family and I purchase our retirement home this past July 2018. Smooth, honest & efficient service provided by him.

I am originally from Puerto Rico but grew up in NYC with summers spent in PR. I did my home search from the states using clasificados site, contacted a few realtors, planned a long weekend trip to Puerto Rico with confirmed appointment dates and times to see my list of the top properties in my search. Saw 9 properties in one day, a few others the next days and ended up purchasing the first property I viewed. The process did take a couple of months to finalize transaction.

A good agent is hard to find because they don't want to waste time showing to people just visiting.
We found one exception. Eddie at ***. We found a really nice house in a great neighborhood near the beach. Too bad it is too large for us. Looking to downsize now.
Good luck.
