Clients Are Saying:
Of course, we’re all familiar with the concept of One Stop Shopping. But we aren’t used to buying a home in this manner. In New York City where I lived for fifty years and even spent time working in real estate, consulting several agents for one purchase was the norm. I’m here to tell you that if you’re searching for the perfect abode in Merida, get ready to scale back to one very good company. You no longer need to comparison shop as Merida Sold Real Estate Professionals is run by two consummate principals. Robert Rhett and Linda O’Donnell honed their skills in Chicago where they spent decades in the industry, closed thousands of deals and garnered several honors and awards of merit and recognition from their peers. They know their business and the Merida market and have established a presence in this Mexican capital as one of the top agencies who promote gracious living. Take a look at their listings and you’ll see what I mean. Beautiful properties, good locations, amenities that promote comfort and ease along with prices that reflect the current housing standards, fill page after page of their website with glorious options. Naturally, this is what one hopes for when in search of the perfect place, but I have a soft spot for them because of who they are in addition to their canny business acumen. Rob and Linda know how to listen and observe. As they spend time with a client showcasing various listings, their true focus is on that individual’s reactions and comments. They take those to heart to determine exactly what that person may unknowingly desire. Their prudent ability to read between the lines allows them to present appealing and unexpected properties to their clients. This was the case for me and my husband. We were suddenly presented with an entirely new style of house that was a huge departure from our original vision and a fantastic opportunity to explore a new way of living. Additionally, Rob and Linda smoothed the way when the road became bumpy, handled every little hiccup that arose and always projected a calm, positive and knowledgeable approach at every meeting. It was so comforting to have such a reliable team in our corner all the while knowing that whatever we required, whether it was solving a problem, meeting a deadline, wiring money, etc., etc. all we had to do was ask. Their swift, assured response to every request transformed the potential nightmare of buying a house in a foreign country into an exotic adventure.

We first visited Merida in 2022 and felt that it was just the perfect place and climate for us to think about a warm second home. We consulted with Amy at Moving to Merida. Amy referred Linda and Rob to us so that we could look at properties in Merida. At the time, we were not speaking Spanish (although we intend to learn as soon as we are there this winter)
I am in the business of property investment. Having working with numerous real estate professionals in various states and countries over the past 40 years, I must say that Linda and Rob are at the absolute top of the list for best realtors I have ever worked with.
Their professionalism and attentiveness is unsurpassed. They lined up about 5 homes to visit based on our very specific parameters. Their recommendations were very accurate, along with their profound knowledge of the various areas of Merida and the different types of housing. We chose a home during that visit , in Garcia Gineres—a wonderful quiet area, walking distance to the Centro.
During the purchase process, Linda and Rob were with us every step of the way— beginning with the purchase contract, knowledge and explanation of the various laws, introducing us personally to the English speaking attorney (who is great), visiting the house again with us several times, recommending sources for acquiring furnishings, advising and managing updates to the water systems and other systems as well. In addition, we were introduced to a nearby property manager that we are so glad to be working with. Linda and Rob continue to be available after the closing of the sale.
The time Linda and Rob spent with us was extremely generous and uncommon to find in a realtor.
Their long term experience as realtors in the US provides insight into the similar needs and expectations that often exist in their Expat English speaking clients.
We look forward to working with them again on other potential property acquisitions in Merida and the Yucatan, and continuing to enjoying our time together as friends.
We would be glad to talk with any potential clients.

Armando and Victoria are true professionals. They will make you feel like you are their only client. They have a great attention to detail and are thorough, honest, punctual and reliable. A pleasure to work with them.
M.P.
Meeting Victoria and Armando is like a breath of fresh air! Not only are they wonderful people, they are happy to share their knowledge and experience of living in both Mérida and Izamal with their clients. Their background in construction and design was extremely helpful and they worked hard to make sure that we made the best decision for us.

Hi Linda and Rob.
We also want to thank you for selling our house... We realize all the effort that goes into orchestrating a sale and we appreciate it.
You two are a perfect, professional team... with just the right amount of humor thrown in for good measure.
We will definitely recommend you to others with no hesitation...your honesty and integrity are evident.
Sincerely
D & B
We felt comfortable with Linda and Rob from the get-go. The communication was terrific. Linda kept in touch regarding our visit from the states and our schedule. They listened to our wants and needs and set up several showings for us. When we arrived, they showed us around some areas in and out of Centro. While in the homes, they gave us the time we needed, we never felt rushed. They talked to us openly regarding their experience moving here which was comforting for us to see how happy they are.
The very last home we saw was the home at the very top of our list. Once we saw it in person, we knew for sure it was the home for us. We all went to a Hostel near the home for a refreshment and to talk about our home search. While sitting there I was feeling great excitement over the home we just saw and extreme fear that if we made an offer, we would be selling everything we owned, including our home in the states, and moving to a country where I knew nothing, not even the language. My husband and I were trying to decide what we should do and I looked over at Linda, who with the sweetest smile said, "It will be okay". It was right then that I decided. I looked back at my husband and said, "pull the trigger" and we made an offer.
I can not thank Linda and Rob enough for their support, their stories of life in Merida, and their help once we got here.
They are wonderful people who don't just end the relationship once the home is closed. We didn't just buy a home...we made new friends.

We can’t say enough good things about Linda O’Donnell and Rob Rhett’s service to us in the selling of our oceanfront property. Their professionalism is flawless, but the extra issues that they managed for us in this protracted process was outstanding.
Arranging gardeners to keep the property in good order. Dealing with ongoing maintenance after the papers were signed and before the closing date. These things are what protected our investment and saw closure to the sale.
Do yourselves a favor…..deal with Linda and Rob and know that you have access to the complete service that will be needed.
M.B. and S.C.
We found Linda and Rob when they responded to an inquiry we had made about a property. In other words, not a referral. We had never visited Merida but wanted to buy a property there. In every interaction from that first one, they proved themselves trustworthy, honest, resourceful and attentive to our needs. They also took the time to answer all of our questions which were many. Over time we decided that we would work exclusively with them.
When we arrived Merida to look at homes, they took us on a tour of different areas and helped us to understand the city. When we were ready to look at properties they took us to tour ten homes that were pre selected based on the criteria we gave them. Later when we decided to make an offer, they were there to help us, and we secured one of the houses we saw at a favorable price.
From first call to closing and beyond, Linda and Rob are there for you. They don’t hand you off and they don’t take on more than they can handle. They have an enormous bank of experience between them and they know the market they are working in. I have bought a dozen homes in my lifetime and known many overwhelmed agents who are spread thin. With making a purchase like this in a foreign country, we wanted an attentive and competent agent. That is what we found in Linda and Rob, and they are also just nice people to boot. I recommend them unconditionally.
T.M.C. and C.Z.
I had the pleasure of working with Linda O’Donnell and Rob Rhett when my Mérida home went on the market. They were responsive, professional, well informed agents. They were with me every step of the way, always keeping my best interests in the forefront of decision making. Plus, it didn’t hurt that they are great people who are fun to be around. Happily, they brought me a full price offer less than a week after they took the listing. It was an excellent experience and I am happy to recommend them to others.

We officially closed on our first home in Merida and couldn't be happier. We highly recommend our agents, Rob Rhett and Linda O'Donnell. Rob's contact number is: (999) 381-6321. They knew exactly what we were looking for and guided us through the entire process calmly and with ease. Since we will not be able to live here ourselves for a few months, they even found us the perfect short-term tenants!

We have had the opportunity to work with Linda and Rob of Merida Sold for several transactions---This spring, we were looking to purchase a home in a historic neighborhood. Linda and Rob identified the perfect property for us. Their advice regarding pricing, and restoration is always accurate. Their responsiveness and knowledge of local market conditions is of the highest order. We can't imagine any other real estate professionals that would be as helpful o and available to their clients; substantially above and beyond what is called for.
We strongly recommend the services of Merida Sold
N.W. & L.W.
Linda and Rob are fantastic. They know Centro and surrounding areas like the back of their hand. Having moved to Merida from the U.S. themselves, they have an unique understanding of the process. Living in Merida currently, they know the ins and the outs. Because they sold real estate for years in the U.S., they are professional and understand what buyers want. They are communicative and diligent.
Rob and Linda showed us everything that was similar to what we asked for and then they showed us homes we didn't even know we wanted. It so happens we bought one of those homes and now we can tell you that Linda and Rob don't walk away when you go in contract. They have helped us through every step of the process and continue to offer advice and guidance as we begin our Colonial rehab project.
On top of being great real estate agents, they also happen to be great people and we are looking forward to having them be part of our community when we are in Merida full time.
