Real Estate Appraisal Across Mexico and Latin America
|
Work in Mexico and Latin America requires specialized knowledge and expertise. In addition to language fluency, an understanding of cultural nuances is critical in confirming market data and producing market-based analysis and appraisals. Market data resources are often fragmented and market data confirmation requires specialized skills. We have worked in 20 states and the Federal District across a range of property types. |
