Roatan-Real Estate Testimonials I have known Larry Schlesser since 2001 as a very capable and honest real estate broker. What separates Larry and his company from the competition is their integrity. I have purchased properties on Roatan through Larry and Roatan Real Estate and recommend them to anyone interested in a capable and honest broker. My future purchases will be through Roatan Real Estate. Val Washington, Circuit Court Judge, Retired Genesss County Michigan To Whom It May Concern, I feel when I find a company and or person in which I am doing business with that excels in their profession it deserves to be acknowledged and shared with others. Like you I was going through the process of purchasing a home on the Island of Roatan and felt somewhat at a disadvantage. I had made several transactions at home and thought I knew the industry (Real Estate) pretty well, I had never made a purchase in a foreign country and felt very vulnerable. I am aware that most often salesman will tell you anything you want to hear to make a sale and Real Estate is no exception. To get to the point, Roatan Real Estate, Broker Larry Schlesser and Sales Manager Wendy McLaughlin are true professionals. Their communication, recommendations and service were superb. I was literally walked through the process and felt a total trust with my agent Wendy McLaughlin. If you are like me and very cautious about transactions in foreign countries, rest assured here is a company and agent you can put your trust into. My only wish is that the Realtors in the US could do as well. Once again Thank You Wendy, Larry and everyone associated with Roatan Real Estate. Joe Summers Grove, Oklahoma My brother and I have been traveling all around the world looking for the right spot for our business - I'm glad to say, that with Wendy's help, we found it on Roatan! I'd like to thank you and Larry for helping us complete the purchase so smoothly, and give you my thanks and commendations for all your help both before and after the sale! Asa Davis Exeter, RI. Just a brief note of appreciation for the great job done by Roatan Real Estate, and in particular, our Realtor Alex Coleman on our purchase of property on Calabash Bight. Buying real estate, particularly in a foreign country, can be a stressful experience, to say the least. We are so greatful to have had the assistance of Alex in our purchase! We never felt pressured by Alex. He has been very helpful, showing us around the island on several occasions, explaining both the pros and cons of various locations and pieces of property. Throughout the purchase he has been very prompt in responding to our emails and in making the whole complex process as simple and stress-free as possible. We had no hesitation in recommending Alex to family members looking for property in Roatan. We feel that we now have both a realtor and a friend in Roatan! John Steiger Lisa Guzman Olympia, Washington, USA My relationship with Tom Campbell began in May of 2004 when my wife and I came to Roatan with the thought of retirement. We met Tom at a meeting of realtors and were immediately struck by his sincerity and forthright manner. We have since purchased property through him and with his help are currently in the process of development and sale of this property. In our two year relationship, Tom has proven to be every bit as honest, ethical, and hard working as we thought in our first meeting. I cannot recommend anyone more highly. Shelly and Gina Shapiro Oklohoma City, OK. My husband and I spent three weeks in Roatan looking for beach front property, so that we could build our retirement dream home. Thanks to Alex Coleman's tireless efforts we found exactly what we wanted at Parrot Tree. He patiently spent so many hours showing us the island, answering all of our questions, and making our purchase amazingly easy. Everything was handled for us, including finding a great attorney. Working with Roatan Real Estate was a pleasure and we highly recommend them. Cindy & Kevin Krushinski Linden, New Jersey I would like to be added to your testimonial site because as a property owner in Roatan, I feel that my experience should be shared. I own a condo and land. I purchased the land from Larry Schlesser 4 years later than buying the condo. After participating in lots of hours of real estate with many other realtors, Larry is without a doubt the person who can be totally counted on for every aspect of your real estate experience. People get away with things in 3rd world countries that can't be done in the United States. But Larry always proceeds with the highest of integrity. Its good to know I can always trust him and am glad to now call him and Nancy good friends. Thank you, both of you. I look forward to doing more business with you. Leslie Downs Santa Cruz, CA. Wendy, it's because of your professionalism and work ethics that attracted me to your agency and attraction to your island. You should be the ambassador of Roatan. Paul Lara When my wife and I decided to buy land on Roatan we talked with three different realtors and had them show us various properties. We had to return home before finding what we were looking for and only Larry kept up the hunt for us. We received almost weekly emails and photos of properties for sale. Then Larry spotted exactly what we were looking for and proceeded to get the ball rolling. He handled all the paperwork for us, put us in touch with a great lawyer and now we are the happy owners of Banana Hill overlooking Brick Bay. Put simply Larry will help you find your dream! Paul Lauricella We were referred to you on a recommendation of our good friend that said you were the best Patrick. After your performance in selling the home we were living in and helping us through the difficult transition to the land we purchased through you and built our dream home on we must say you are the best. We must admit we were somewhat skeptical after experiences with other brokers but you really restored our faith. As you know by now our children refer to you as Saint Patrick and we feel the same. Richard & Barbara Garant Wareham, Massachusetts I would like to take a moment to thank you for all of your help while purchasing my property in Roatan. Due to internet and email, you seemed to have a pretty good idea of what I was looking for, and didn't waste my time while in Roatan looking at things I would not have been interested it. Your knowledge of the island combined proved invaluable, and the entire experience was the easiest real estate transaction I've ever experienced. Thank you for your excellent follow-up, and will definitely be keeping in touch. Eva Lang, Townsville, Australia I would recommend Patrick Crowley to anyone that is thinking of buying or selling a property. I have sold three properties and purchased two through Patrick. I am very comfortable with his representation on my behalf. It is no wonder why he is so successful in the real estate business. Marc Salerno Onset, Massachusetts We own Real estate in Roatan, Honduras, and Larry Schlesser was our real estate agent. I would not hesitate in using him again in the future, or referring someone to him. I feel that he is very honest, and tells you exactly what is going on. He doesn't try to hide anything from you that you may need to know to make an informed decision. He is also very dependable, and has helped us with many other things besides real estate, while we we away from Roatan in the states, and unable to tend to things ourselves. He has gone the extra mile for us on several occasions, and runs his business with very high standards. Bill & Judy Griffith Salt Lake City, Utah It was a pleasure doing business with Larry, not only was he our real estate agent for a weekend, but also our tour guide, he made sure that as we were looking at properties that we also saw all of the good sights on Roatan. Larry was very honest in disclosing the advantages and disadvantages of owning certain properties, regardless of how it affected him. I would not hesitate using Larry or referring someone to Larry in the future. Ted Nafzger Minneapolis, MN I would like to say that I am very pleased with my experience working with Patrick. He is a busy person and I can see why he is in such demand. I know he represents some large companies and expensive properties but he still took the time to help me find the right property for me. Even though it was not a large sale like he is used to it was a big one for me. I appreciate the time and knowledge Patrick provided for me. Buying my first home gave me anxious moments and Patrick was wonderful, explaining things so I could easily understand them. I feel like Patrick gave me the VIP treatment. Laurie Crawford Fairhaven, Massachusetts Larry Schlesser did a great job for my brothers and I during our recent realestate transaction. This was my first time purchasing a property outside the United States and Larry did a very thorough job in answering our questions and making sure we understood how the realestate transaction process worked in Honduras. I found Larry to be very honest and forthright through out the entire transaction period. Paul Nafzger Becky and I both feel that you did a fine job of handling our purchase of condo unit 1A at the Mayan Princess.Your knowledge of Roatan and the rest of Honduras we believe is superior to other sales consultants on the island.
