The PGS Realty team went above and beyond to help us find our new home. They are friendly, punctual, personable, professional, and did everything to make our apartment hunting easy and stress-free. In a single weekend we found our new place and signed a lease. When it was time to move in, they even offered to let in the moving company the day before we arrived so that all of our belongings would be there ahead of time. Use PGS Realty, you won't regret it!

I've worked with lots of top lawyers and consultants, and Mr. Heriberto Estribi is one of those top professionals that knows his field of expertise inside out, is fast, genuine, friendly, helpful, honest and not least very interesting to meet. The process was frankly impeccable. I interacted with four other people at his office in July 2021, and these guys were also a thrill to work with. Focused, experienced, helpful, efficient, on time, updated on my case etc. etc. No surprising additional costs. In fact, no additional costs even though I got some changes done. Top quality from A to Z. Feel free to google my name and contact me if you have further inquiries.

I have to say that I have been incredibly impressed and pleased with the quality, efficiency and thoroughness of the great service we have received from the whole PGS team. We have purchased two condos and also established Permanent Residency in Panama using PGS services for all of our legal requirements. Emilio and Edwin and all of their colleagues have been there every step of the way, providing sage, timely and patient guidance and efforts on our behalf. With their help, all of our steps to go through real estate and residency processes went very smoothly. They have also been very cost effective, offering better pricing and fees than other legal firms we looked at in Panama. We have been very happy that we made the decision to go with PGS! I need to make a very special mention of Andrea Cooper who has acted as our real estate agent for two major purchases over the past four years. Andrea has gone well above and beyond our expectations on these efforts. She has been the best real estate agent we have worked with, in any country, including our home of Canada. Anyone looking to buy or lease real estate in Panama is in great hands if they make the decision to work with Andrea and the whole extended PGS team. A big thank you to PGS!
