Todd Bates

I was born and raised in Toronto, Ontario, Canada and proceeded to enter university in Hamilton, Ontario, at McMaster University and after completing my Bachelor of Arts degree, went to Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario, for a second Bachelor of Arts degree.

But I was searching for something more in life and traveled to Whistler, British Columbia, Canada to visit friends from my University days and decided to pursue a life there. After owning and operating his 2 successful businesses in Whistler for 12 years, I met my (soon to be) wife on a trip to Puerto Vallarta (to visit my mother and father-in-law at their new condo in Nuevo Vallarta) and, after several more visits, decided that would be my new home in Paradise.

Both my mother and mother-in-law have properties in Puerto Vallarta, so I understand the needs and expectations of the foreign purchaser, as well as a Mexican purchaser. Growing up around real estate in Toronto, as my mother and brother ran a very successful real estate company in Toronto, I fully understand the work needed to be successful.

Living here full-time has been an incredible challenge and opportunity and I am so fortunate to be able to live where people only think of vacationing.

I continue to upgrade my real estate knowledge through continuous training in the multi-faceted business that the buying and selling of real estate in Puerto Vallarta to ensure that my clients receive the most professional representation possible.

I live by the motto of “Treat this person as you would treat your mother and always expect more of yourself”.
