Puerto Rico is home to thousands of properties owned by individuals who no longer live on the island. Whether you've inherited a property, relocated, or bought a second home years ago that’s no longer being used — selling while living off-island is more common than ever.
However, selling remotely comes with its own unique challenges. From legal documentation and title clearing to listing logistics and final closing, navigating the process without being physically present can feel overwhelming.
That’s where we come in.
Selling real estate in Puerto Rico differs from the mainland U.S. in several key ways. A local team that’s well-versed in island law and processes can save you time, money, and stress.
Let’s walk through the process step by step.
A Power of Attorney (Poder Notarial) allows someone local to legally represent you in the sale. This is essential if you cannot fly in for signatures or closing. We help coordinate this through trusted attorneys or notaries.
We ensure the property’s title is clear and that the Escritura (Deed) is in proper order. If your property was inherited or held in family names, we guide you through succession, death certificates, or affidavit filings.
We check that the CRIM property tax status is current. If not, we assist in settling it so that there are no holds or delays in the transaction. We also explain the capital gains tax implications specific to off-island sellers.
Puerto Rico’s legal system requires notarized documents for real estate transactions. We coordinate this so you can sign from the U.S. or abroad — through embassies, mail, or certified notaries.
We start with a Zoom or phone call to assess your property, outline the steps, and determine your goals and timeline.
Our team helps gather:
Escritura (Deed)
CRIM certificate
Catastro and property tax data
HOA documents (if applicable)
Power of Attorney documents
We connect you with attorneys, help you notarize docs, and ensure all paperwork is properly processed and submitted.
We visit the property to take photos, drone video, and virtual tours. Then we list it across:
MLS Puerto Rico
Realtor.com & Zillow
Our site: www.ThePuertoRicoRealEstate.com
Facebook, Instagram, YouTube
We handle everything — local showings, buyer inquiries, and negotiations. You get regular updates and can approve offers remotely.
All documents are sent, signed, and filed through your legal representative. Once complete, funds are wired to you. You never need to set foot on the island to sell.
That’s exactly why you need a local expert. Issues like:
A missing death certificate
A property not yet registered
Incomplete CRIM records
can delay or even derail your sale. We troubleshoot these BEFORE listing, ensuring a smoother closing.
We’re not a referral service. We’re boots-on-the-ground agents who live and work across Puerto Rico. We know the island, the laws, and what buyers are looking for.
We’ve helped dozens of U.S.-based and international sellers successfully close remotely — from inherited homes to beach condos to land.
We don’t just list — we market with purpose, leveraging social media, online ads, and real estate platforms to find the right buyer fast.
From legal support to property prep, we handle it all for you. You stay informed, but never overwhelmed.
