Testimonials - what people are saying about Gigi
Gigi helped us with our home purchase in Bucerias, and we were so thankful for how far beyond the expected she went. As well as all the normal items - setting up the escrow account with a trusted company, for example - she took us to the Telmex and CFE offices, prepared all the transfer papers, and helped us get all our new utility accounts set up. These are the little things where we would have been completely lost and frustrated. She's of course completely knowledgeable - she knows the Bucerias market extremely well, she knows all the notarios, and she's licensed with the main MLS systems and realtor associations. Plus she's super friendly and fun!
Cheers, Tyrol Russell Laurel Richardson
Guylaine was instrumental in finding and purchasing our perfect vacation property in Bucerias. Her services were invaluable in navigating a purchase in Mexico, she goes above and beyond. Her job isn’t done when the transaction is, she follows up with us all the time to ensure we are happy and comfortable and is always available when we have a question. We couldn’t have done it without her. She is more than a realtor, she’s a friend.
Patricia and Joe Loranger, Sherwood Park, Alberta
Guylaine Gignac, aka "Gigi" is a #1 agent. We started working with her online when we lived in California. She was so patient and understanding in dealing with us before, during and after the purchase of our home in Bucerias. We changed our minds on what we wanted in a home so many times and she always was willing to go back to square one and start over. After the purchase of our "perfect home" she assisted with setting up all our utilities and answered all the questions that come with buying a home in a foreign country.
Thank you Gigi for all your hard work!

Gigi did a terrific job handling the sale of my condo in Bucerias and I can't say enough good things about her. She's extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of the real estate process in Mexico and she makes sure that everything is done properly and in a timely fashion.

Gigi recently sold my Bucerias condo for me. She had several prospects through both local and foreign and found a purchaser in relatively short order. The process was effortless for me. She handled everything. I literally just had to sign some documents and collect my money! As a resident of many years she knows the Bucerias market and procedures inside and out. I highly recommend Gigi for a sale or purchase.
Larry Owens, Victoria, BC
Gigi was the listing realtor on several condos that we looked at in Bucerias. Her knowledge of Bucerias, the real estate market, and the specific listings assisted us greatly when making our decision of which one to purchase - and it was one of her listings! Gigi is very diligent and trustworthy, as well as extremely helpful, friendly and lots of fun! Since our purchase Gigi has continued to assist us in many ways. We highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a realtor.

En janvier 2017 moi et mon épouse avons choisi Mme Guylaine Gignac comme agent d'immeuble afin de procéder a l'achat d'une propriété a Bucerias . Mme Gignac nous avait été recommandé par des connaissances et nous pouvons certifier de notre entière satisfaction des services rendus lors de notre transaction.
Parlant parfaitement français , anglais et bien sur l’espagnol elle a su nous expliquer , nous orienter et nous représenter tout au long du cheminement de notre transaction . Ses connaissances professionnelles ont été essentielles pour transférer notre argent dans un trust reconnu et fiable , sélection d'un notaire fiable et honnête et la sélection de la banque in Trust qui nous représentera tant et aussi longtemps que nous serons propriétaires de cette propriété.
N'oubliez jamais que vous n'êtes pas au Canada et que les lois sont très différentes au Mexique et que la transaction chez le notaire autant verbale que écrite sont réalisées en espagnol . Par le professionnalisme de Mme Gignac elle a su nous expliquer clairement dans notre langue maternelle tout les aspects légaux avant , pendant et après la transaction.
Nous pouvons certifier sans aucun doute que nous recommandons les services d'agent d'immeuble de Mme Guylaine Gignac maintenant devenue notre amie Gigi . Il est également clair et évident que si nous devions vendre ou acheter une autre propriété dans la région de Puerto Vallarta ce sont les services de l'agent d'immeuble Guylaine Gignac que nous choisirions.

We can’t thank Gigi enough for guiding us through our first home buying experience in Mexico. It’s clear that she enjoys helping people and making sure that each purchase/sale experience is positive. She was an absolute delight from start to finish. She knows everyone and every neighborhood in town, and we were warmly received everywhere we went during our purchase. She not only helped us negotiate the terms of our purchase and process all the paperwork; she also stuck with us and confirmed that all details were completed with transferring utilities from the former owners and personally took us to set up new utility accounts. Gigi was more than a realtor. She was a comforting guide who helped us understand all the details of purchasing and managing a home in Mexico. She was generous with her time and shared tips from her many years of experience. We highly recommend Gigi!

After having my Condo (a very unusual property with 2 separate apartments) on the market for 2 years with a large realty firm in the area and no reasonable offers, I decided to change realtors. After Gigi listed the property with a much better description of the property, she started showing the property multiple times in the first few weeks and got an offer which was acceptable shortly thereafter. Gigi handled all the details for the closing and managed all the paperwork so I could receive my Capital Gains Exemption and the closing went very smoothly. I had to ask myself, "Why did I wait so long to give the listing to Gigi, a true professional. Gigi knows the Bucerias market extremely well, she know all the Notarios and she's licensed with the main MLS systems and realtor associations. Besides that, she's super friendly and lots of fun!

My wife and I recently sold our townhouse in Punta Esmeralda. We owned it for 12 years and I had lost contact with the realtor who sold it to us. Our property manager referred Gigi to us. I must admit that before beginning the process I had a few reservations about the process living so far away in Alaska. My concerns were alleviated from the first communication with Gigi. She thoroughly explained the process to me and did an excellent and comprehensive market analysis. Gigi sold our place quickly and helped us navigate the real estate system in Mexico. While real estate has similarities to the United States, there are some things that are done very differently. Gigi promptly answered every question we had, explained every document that was presented to us, and walked us through the process at closing. Gigi is knowledgeable, thorough, patient and professional. I would highly recommend her for anyone looking to buy or sell real estate in Mexico.
Will Fancher, Anchorage, Alaska
"Thank you Gigi for making what could have been a long and laborious process of selling our home in Mexico easy and stress free. You graciously served us and represented our interest very professionally. We appreciated your attention to detail, your clear communication about the process, and your sensitivity as we said goodbye to our wonderful home and the people whom we grew to love so much. We highly recommend you to anyone who wants to buy or sell a property in Mexico."

Avec une immense satisfaction, nous avons utilisé les services de Mme Gignac pour l'achat d'un condo à PV en mars 2020. Mme Gignac a toujours fait preuve d'un grand professionnalisme, d'une grande connaissance des lois mexicaines (différentes de celles du Canada), d'une grande honnêteté, et d'une très grande disponibilité.
Un autre avantage extrêmement important, Mme Gignac, qui devient rapidement notre amie GIGI, parle couramment 3 langues, français, anglais et espagnol. Ainsi, autant l'acheteur que le vendeur sont mis en confiance.
Elle connaît tous les rouages complexes pour le bon déroulement d'une transaction immobilière sûre, rapide et efficace.
Sans aucune hésitation, nous recommandons la plus sympathique de tous les agents d'immeuble, notre amie GIGI à quiconque désire acheter ou vendre un bien immobilier dans la région de PV. Grâce à elle, nous avons finalement réalisé notre rêve: un chez nous en bord de mer au Mexique.

Nous avons décidé d’acheter une maison au Mexique, plus précisément à Bucerias. Nous savions pertinemment qu’il nous fallait de l’aide dans toute cette aventure. Nous avons choisi Gigi (Guylaine Gignac) et nous ne le regrettons pas du tout. Gigi parle parfaitement 3 langues, français, anglais et espagnol, c’est essentiel pour faire une transaction au Mexique. La façon de procéder est totalement différente de nous au Québec. Par chance qu’elle était là pour nous accompagner dans cette belle aventure!
C’est une personne très dévouée, professionnelle et surtout disponible. Elle s’occupe vraiment de vous. Elle a toujours répondu à nos multiples demandes et nous a rendu d’énormes services tout au long de cette transaction.
Nous la recommandons à quiconque veut acheter ou vendre une propriété au Mexique. Elle connaît parfaitement la région, elle y vit depuis plusieurs années et est très connue là-bas. Elle s’implique également dans sa communauté et c’est une personne très généreuse.

I would like to thank you for all the work you have done in selling my property in Nuevo Vallarta.
Living abroad, as well as having to negotiate a sale during the pandemic was certainly not an easy task for you.
Your professionalism, knowledge of the local market, dedication and timely feed back made this adventure flow so easy.
Thanks for all your assistance and guidance.
Brian Illick (A very SATISFIED customer)
J’aimerais te remercier sincèrement pour l’ensemble du travail que tu as effectué lors de la vente de ma propriété à Nuevo Vallarta.
Étant donné la pandémie et la distance géographique, je sais jusqu’à quel point tu as travaillé avec ardeur.
Ton professionnalisme, ta connaissance du marché local, ton dévouement et tes suivis rigoureux ont facilité grandement l’aboutissement de cette vente.
Un énorme MERCI pour ton aide et tes précieux conseils.

Gigi was a godsend helping me through a difficult period to list and sell my sisters estate. She is not only a very professional and well established Real Estate professional but a wonderful caring person. I recommend her most strongly for any RE transaction required.

I have been a real estate agent in Calgary for almost 30 years. I bought in Bucerias and for sure. ...the real agent agent you want is Gigi.
Gigi is also from Calgary, has been living in the area for over 30 years and has the same work ethic as we do.
Nadine Faule, Calgary. Alberta
Gigi got us our dream home! We moved to Bucerias from Northern California in February. We came down in December to search for a house. I had already been searching and had a list of houses and condos from Bucerias to Punta Mita. She was great showing us around and we quickly narrowed down our search to the golden zone in Bucerias. Once we put our offer in she took care of everything. Worked with us as we learned how things worked here in Mexico.
Once we closed she went above and beyond. Got our internet, electric set up in our names, she also flagged down the gas truck and had our tank filled!!! If you need a realtor that can find your dream home and help you every step of the way, Gigi is the one! Not only is she great but I hope to call her our friend.
Kathleen McGovern , from California now a Bucerias resident.
We are so grateful that we were introduced to Gigi. She made the process of buying our property in Mexico so seamless. She is responsive, skilled, knowledgeable and a pleasure to deal with. We would highly recommend Gigi

Having recently gone through the process of buying my first condo in Mexico, I can say with pride that Gigi Gignac is probably the most knowledgeable realtor in the entire Banderas Bay. She has full realtor credentials, many years of experience, speaks & writes three languages, English, French and Spanish. I would always highly recommend her.
Margaret Killick from White Rock, British Columbia (October 2022)
Gigi has become our go-to realtor and advisor. We have purchased two properties with Gigi so far. We appreciate that she is both professional and also so friendly and fun throughout the process. We know how important it is to work with a licensed and knowledgeable local agent. Gigi has developed so many useful contacts and positive relationships in the real estate industry in the Bay, and she was able to provide excellent service and advice for both of our purchases: a resale condo and then a pre-construction condo. We can not speak highly enough of Gigi!
Gigi was more than a realtor. She was a comforting guide who helped us understand all the details of purchasing and managing a home in Mexico.
Joy Bryngelson and Mark Romero from Seattle, Washington
We are so blessed to have found Gigi and her team. I'm a very high-expectations person and she delivered right on the dot. From the setting of price, communication, pictures, contract, documentation, closing, and money transfer, all right on!
Thank you Gigi and Team.
Richard and Analaura Shope from Dallas, Texas
Avec l’aide de GIgi nous avons fait l’achat d’une propriété à Bucerias sans même avoir eu à nous déplacer.

Elle nous a inspiré confiance des notre première discussion sur messenger. GIgi a fait que notre rêve devienne une réalité et sans crainte de nous faire exploiter. Gigi s'assurer que notre investissement soit fait en toute légalité. Encore aujourd’hui un and plus tard elle reste disponible pour nous aider à faire de meilleur choix.
