Daniel Ortiz

""Daniel Ortiz is the greatest real estate agent of all time. We LOVED working with him. Daniel is intuitive - he knew us well, he listened well, and he taught us a great deal too. It was a wonderful journey exploring San Miguel and eventually finding such a wonderful home for our family. We are truly in his debt. We cannot speak more highly about Daniel and the trust we placed in him as a partner in this endeavor. THANK YOU Daniel. We are so grateful!"    "

"My wife and I hired Daniel Ortiz (Coldwell Banker Smart) after interviewing several other agents/agencies in SMA, none of whom presented themselves and their firm as professionally, market competent, marketing savvy and passionate about our home and securing our business. From the first minute we met until the end of closing, Daniel (and his team) were fully engaged - attentive to our needs and concerns as sellers, creators of a dynamic multilayered international luxury property marketing campaign and client outreach strategy. And most importantly, they delivered on every single one of their promises; resulting in a sale after only 2.5 months on market. As a point of reference, we used a different broker and agency to buy our property as they had the listing. We did interview the original broker as part of our due diligence but found her and her agency’s approach and attitude toward us and the property to be “rinse and repeat.” Disconcerting as we made significant enhancements to the property – new pool, renovated prep kitchen, etc. Daniel brought a fresh eye and new perspective to the entirety of the house and grounds, using the upgrades and renovations to brilliantly present Casa Toscana as “luxury resort living in San Miguel.” Daniel and his team are true professionals, and equally important, good people. You can settle for “okay” and work with other brokers/agencies in SMA, or you can work with the best - an agent and a team that will treat you and respect you like family, not just another “client” to make money off of."

"In 2015 we decided to invest in a property in San Miguel de Allende, I reached out to Daniel Ortiz of CBSMART looking for advise, we liked a Rosewood Residence. Daniel and his team managed all aspects of the transaction in keeping with our interests and expectations. Thanks to his diligence we acquired the property, which we own till this date. Furthermore and thanks to the good professional relationship we have kept, we are in continued contact on investment opportunities with his advise and support. "

"We lived in Mexico for about 15 years- in Puerto Vallarta and San Miguel de Allende. During that period, we moved residences on numerous occasions. We were represented by varied real estate brokers/agents on these transactions. On our final sale, early this year, we retained Daniel to represent us on the sale of our residence at Rosewood Residences in San Miguel de Allende. There is NO comparison between him and the other realtors. He was knowledgeable, thorough, responsive, efficient, friendly and professional. As one example, all of the buy-sell agreements provided to us by other realtors had to be reviewed by us requiring them to make varied corrections. Daniel’s documents were letter perfect! We sold our residence at almost the full listing price; and that too, within the time frame we had in mind. We very strongly recommend Daniel to anyone in San Miguel de Allende who wishes to retain the best there is!"

"To my agent Daniel Ortiz, Selling a home is a BIG challenge anywhere in the world, in particular a home in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. Why? Because there are always mysteries and hidden secrets in these ancient homes; because there are endless restrictions in what we can or cannot do in the protected UNESCO historic center of town. There are always surprises in a “innocent” renovation like fixing a leaking wall or a toilet drain. Suddenly someone might show up with a Stop Work order and put an indefinite Hold on your hot to trot project and throw your deadline out of the window. All those obstacles happened to our project. But thanks to Daniel and his team of professionals we raced to the finish line with victory. Thanks Daniel for your critical review from the beginning, we got our home fixed! All problems, from the smallest to the most obvious were dealt with until we had and impeccable home fit for a King! Then you set to work and work hard to deliver. I never forget the day you called at our breakfast to say: “You have an offer!” Wow! That was it! The rest is history. Thank you Daniel, Ivy and Martha. With your intuition and know how you and your professional team had guided us through the complex process so smoothly. You are amazing! No wonder you named your business COLDWELLBANKER SMART!!! With our most grateful hugs, Hannah&Patrick"
