In addition to focusing on the American market, which remains our primary and most important market, Pacific Boutique Properties also caters to the needs of the recently increasing European market as buyers look further field for second homes and investment opportunities or a luxurious rental property to spend some time in the winter.

Pratt has an extensive background in hotel operations, sales, marketing, and public relations; as well as property management in both her native Canada and Mexico.

Pratt comments, "The dynamic real estate sector on the Costa Vallarta drew me in and I look to furthering my specialty in the top end of the offering in this geographically and culturally attractive zone. I look forward to bringing investors the best of luxury coastal residences and low-density development properties of distinction."
