Bruce, I'd assume that both the buyer & the seller have a copy of the signed sales contract. Is there another realtor (reputable) in the area
that you could talk with to get advice? It seems like once the sales agreement is signed, you could proceed directly with the Notario. Yes, I do
realize that you'd need to get current copies of the taxes paid/no lien & other paperwork, but I think you should be able to proceed with yourself
or someone else in the drivers seat. Have you thought about giving Miguel Izquierdo a call for some advice? I'd forget the missing realtor (unless
their holding the earnest $$!!) & start over to get the deal closed in as timely a manner as possible. I'm not sure if your the buyer or the
seller, but is the other half of this deal aware of what's happening...i.e., do you still have a deal if you can get someone competent to take it on
& get it through the Notario process? |
their are a lot of problems with this. the Realtor has the contracts and a big chunk of cash involved in this deal. and no one can contact them. I did
get hold of a Juliet that is an employ or an associate of Pelican Reef. but she told me that she also cant get hold of the person in charge and has no
way of finding out what is going on.the person we need to contact is Pierce and his phone in the USA has been cut off or something. this whole thing
dose not look good to me. at the very least this is not the way a responsible business should operate. they must be receiving my emails but chose not
to respond.

I suppose the closest PROFECO office is in La Paz? You need to get this on some official person's radar screen, I know you don't think too much of
the police in Mulege, but I believe this would qualify as embezzlement, equivalent to Lulu Jacobson who embezzled earnest $$ or trust funds from
Coldwell Banker in Cabo. I'd give Miguel a call & see what he advises. Take legal action immediately, and then see if this transaction can be
salvaged between the buyer & seller; though I doubt the buyer, who would have been the one whose $$ is missing would want to toss more $$ on the
table at this point in time! I think both the buyer & seller should jointly initiate legal action against both the individual you dealt with, as
well as the company. I'm sorry this happened.....it really SUCKS!

Gone bye-bye?
Bruce does Pierce have any physical interests in town there? Any reason to return there like personal possessions; i.e. boat, car etc.?
Someones' gotta know something. Do you know of other pending "deals" or sales he may currently be negotiating. In other words, are there others who
may be getting stiffed as yourself. That would then support a hypothesis.
On the other hand, it seems very odd he left such a cold trail. Perhaps something bad has happened which would make it impossible for you to know,
and vice-versa.
I hope the best for you. Legal action will cost you in many ways if you choose to use it.

Bruce, I have no idea what your problem is with Pelican Reef. I thought I'd see what was up and E-mailed both Julieta and Pierce. They both answered
me within an hour. They both explained what was happening, not that it was any of my business. And I feel that Pierce is okay although I have not met
him. I KNOW Julieta is good. Pierce said he will return soon. I hope this clears up some of the concerns you have initiated on this site. Russ

Back soon
Hi Bruce,
We are in the states and will be back in Mulege in Dec. The office will reopen Dec. 15. Pierce has been down to Mulege twice since the hurricane and
we thought we would wait till the mosquitos died down to head that way. We both have had Dengue and would not like to revisit it. If you need to get
ahold of us the email is pelicanreefbaja@hotmail.com or you can call us at (864)384-7147. The email hasn't changed and it is checked several times
daily. We will see you in Dec.
Pierce and Val

We are in contact with Julieta daily. She is our partner in the Real Estate business and we email and/or speak to her every day. I still have not
recieved an email from you and would rather speak to you there then here.

Crazy rumours
To whom it may concern,
Val and I are in the States and will be leaving for our home in Mulege in two weeks.I have been in Mulege twice since the hurricane and on my last
trip there,we decided to close the real-estate office until Dec 15,06 because of the obvious problems of the hurricane and damage.We are in contact
with all of our clients and all of our friends in Mulege and Baja on a daily basis through our email(pelicanreefbaja@hotmail.com)or through direct
phone 864-384-7147. These rather damaging postings from Bruce Leach were brought to my attention by many of our friends who monitor this site from
time to time. Let me start by clearing up a couple of things posted here.
We have a new office in Mulege and have just hired two new realtors to work there with both Val,myself and Julieta this season.We have completed every
deal we have ever been involved with in Baja and will continue to do so.
The buyer of Bruces house has decided not to complete at this time and is willing to give up his deposit which Bruce Leach has held since this deal
was inked.Any funds we held in trust will go back to the Buyer as per my agreement with him.
Considering that Mulege has just been through a hurricane and there was damage to the area and loss of life.I am not surprised that the buyer decided
to give Bruce the ernest money and walk away from the deal.I cannot force a buyer to purchase a home if they decide not to and the remedy for this is
for the seller to keep the ernest money.
I do not want to get into this transaction in this public forum but felt I better clear the air.
Val and I have spent a considerable amount of time the last few years investing in Mulege and the Baja in general .Our old bar,The Pelican Reef Bar
and Grill is open and very busy as of this morning.We do not deserve the public display of sour grapes as put out on this forum by Bruce Leach. *****

I would rather speak to you Via email then here also that is why I keep sending them. there is definitely some thing going on I sent 4 emails this
morning and re sent all of the ones for last week get a receipt that they are delivered but not opened. I think they need to check there filters on
there mail program and See if it isn't just tossing them in the trash. also I spoke with Julieta and she says here email has not been getting answered
ether and she hasn't talked with them for some time. I did speak with Pierce on the phone with the number he posted.
it seems I am the only one that showed up for the closing
