Acqua Flamingos, Aria Ocean, Grupo Veg, Jack Levy sales agent lies to clients and scams developers, Resort is well known for a decade of real estate scams Nuevo Vallarta Nayarit

I'm not putting my name out of fear of reprisal because this resort (Aria Ocean, Acgua Nuevo) is well know for being a hotbed of low life scammers connected to the cartels.  My personal experience was one of going to Nuevo Vallarta to buy a condo.  I ended up renting at Aria Ocean and wow did I get into a mess! 

First I talked to a sales agent from Century 21 who was an extremely nice gentleman and was honest with me about prices and told me about some of the history of the resort, and how the new developer was trying to turn things around there and make it nice for everyone.  I researched the development a lot (which is how I found over a dozen articles here on Rip Off Report about it).  That made me a little scared however the new developer sounded pretty good. 

Pretty soon I ran into the developer sales rep named Horacio.  He fed me so many lies I couldn't even keep up with them all and seeked me out day after day trying to pressure me into buying one.  He even had a guy that turns out to be his manager named Martine (although Horacio had told me Martine worked for him) try to pressure me into buying. 

It was one high-pressure sales technique after another combined with blatant lies by the sales rep (not the sales manager).  After staying there for 1 week (and not buying) I can say that I liked the resort itself.  I liked the gentleman from Century 21 that I talked to. I liked the location.  I just didn't buy it because the developer sales rep was so dishonest and because of the history of the resort. 

I would advise using extreme caution when purchasing in Mexico and definitely, 100% only buy using a big real estate company and not directly from a developer sales rep that way you have someone advocation for your best interest.  I do still plan to retire in the area in the next few years but I will track down the Century 21 gentleman that helped me and have him help me make sure I make a smart choice.
