About Us

The Company and its Real Estate Agents in Merida, Yucatan, Mexico

About TrustFirst As A Company

TrustFirst Merida Real Estate was founded with 3 principles which we found were lacking in the marketplace. These 3 principles are the pillars of purpose that drive all decisions and the direction for the company as a whole.

3 Pillars of Purpose

1. Integrity above all else

While Merida and it's people are wonderful, this state is riddled with people looking to make a quick buck. The lack of regulations makes it easy for people to steal and the legal system is easy to cheat. Our aim is to give people a place where they can buy any service we offer with full confidence that we will be honest and protect their interest. This trust also applies to recommendations to 3rd parties.

 

2. Respect in Communication

Most of our clientele are foreigners from Canada, The US or other countries. And while we are in Mexico and the norm here is to take ones time in delivering a service and communicating, this is not always respectful. TrustFirst agents are expected to reply as soon as safely possible. This applied to all forms of communication used by the company.

 

3. Leave everything and everyone better than you found them

The TrustFirst Team has an obligation to you, whether you are a client or not, to provide as much value as possible. We will serve anyone that needs our help, without discrimination of any kind, so long as the person respect our staff. If we do not offer the service or product requested, it is our promise that we will recommend someone that can help, so long as we are comfortable recommending the company or individual. We will do our best to get answers to questions and results to requests.

This is our code.

Kybor - "K"

Personal Approach & Origin Story

"With the world the way it is, it was only natural I'd end up back here, in beautiful Yucatan"

Having grown up in Merida and Progreso, from ages 13 to 19 and coming back to visit friends every couple years until eventually moving back, K has a very good pulse on the local market.

K was born in Canada and lived in South Korea from age 10 to 13. It was here that he learned the importance of honor and discipline, as he studied Tae-Kwon-Do and attended Korean (Hangumal) School.

Shortly after K left this High-school there was an unrelated altercation in the school yard and the parents were unimpressed with the way that the Principal handled the situation. The principal felt he lost face and decided to take his own life.

This experience, as terrible as it was, was not lost on K. Some of his most formative years were spent living in Korea. While not to the same extreme, K has developed and holds a similar sense of Honor and Integrity in his work and friendships, always committing to follow up on big and small promises and never promising the undeliverable.

Professional Experience and Expertise

From age 19 to 34, K has spent his years in Canada, Tampa, and Merida, building several succesful businesses in Real Estate, Moving, and Construction.

His Real Estate Career first started in Ottawa Canada at the age of 22. While Merida is only starting it's Real Estate licensing journey, the certifications began 12 years ago for Kybor as Canada's real estate market is heavily regulated, as is the states. Serving clients and getting them the best possible deals is something K has taken pride in for nearly a decade and a half.

His calm and fun demeanor come second to his commitment to doing a good job and not making false promises. Even if it's just promising to send a quick email with someone's contact details. Having, at times, single handedly taken care of over 120 clients a month in the moving business, one develops a superior sense of organization, possible only with the use of technology.

Linguistic & Cultural Capabilities

Having lived in the Yucatan for so many years as a teen and young adult, K's Spanish is on par with his English. K actually graduated top of his (local) class in Spanish Lit. Many Mexicans don't realize he isn't from here and if they do have a doubt, often believe he may, at most, be from another Mexican state. This makes negotiations much easier as people don't automatically assume he is representing a "gringo" or foreigner.

The risk of people sometimes knowing that a foreigner is interested in purchasing a home (or anything) is that there is a dual economy here. Folks will often drastically increase the price of their goods for a foreigner. K is good at coming to an arrangement before the Seller catches on that he or she is dealing with a foreigner. This applies to real estate, products and services such as construction and trades.

 

If you feel that K's commitment to service and active role in real estate is what you're looking for rather than a semi-retired agent that might serve you properly one day and not the next, please send us a message and he'd be honored to give you the best he's got.
