about us

Unlike traditional realtors, lawyers, or lenders, we are civil engineers with years of hands-on experience in data gathering, fact-checking, and comprehensive verification processes. Our passion is rooted in facts and data, and we meticulously confirm every detail before providing clear, informed assessments.

Over the years, we’ve helped clients secure properties with confidence—delivering successful outcomes and the peace of mind that what was promised is exactly what they received.

Of course, not every transaction is without risk. We’ve confronted challenges ranging from contract breaches and poor workmanship to construction fraud, squatter evictions, land encroachments, and disputes within condominium regimes. These experiences have sharpened our expertise, transforming us into forensic specialists dedicated to investigating, analyzing, and reporting on every aspect of real estate transactions.

We’ve also cultivated a trusted network of skilled, honest, and reliable professionals who understand quality construction and know how to leverage it for successful results.

YCP TEAM

our Mission

YCP’s mission is to deliver the highest-quality bilingual real estate transactional services across the Yucatán Peninsula, serving both national and international clients.

We achieve this through the integrity and expertise of our inspectors, the dedication of our support staff, and the strength of our professional partnerships—working together to provide thorough inspections, reliable guidance, and trusted solutions.

By leveraging advanced technology, we enhance accuracy, efficiency, and transparency in every step of the process. Yet, at the core of everything we do is a simple commitment: each client deserves our very best, every single time.

Our Story

Three retired civil engineers with more than 65 years of combined building experience across the Yucatán Peninsula—including Cancún, Playa del Carmen, Cozumel, Tulum, and Mérida—came together with one purpose: to serve the community through trusted verification services.

My name is Ing. Yef Rutan Flores, co-founder and chief inspector of our team. For over 25 years, I operated a respected construction company in Quintana Roo, specializing in quality residential, condominium, and commercial developments in Cancún, Playa del Carmen, and Tulum.

In 2014, we expanded our expertise to include consulting, inspection, and verification services, with a primary focus on presale and new construction projects throughout the Riviera Maya. Year after year, our work has grown as we continue to refine our processes and raise our standards.

By 2020, we relocated from Tulum to Valladolid, establishing a central home office that allows us to serve the entire peninsula more effectively—from Mérida to Cancún, and from Bacalar to Celestún. Today, we remain committed to safeguarding property transactions and delivering peace of mind through engineering excellence.

Our vision

We believe Mexico is on a clear path toward becoming the first-world nation it has always been destined to be.

To achieve this, access to global financial services is essential—especially within the real estate sector, where transparency and information are the foundation for building a fair and thriving ecosystem.

For Mexico’s real estate industry to stand on equal footing with those of leading nations, it must embrace openness and accessibility. Transparency is not just a goal; it is the key to long-term success.

International platforms like Trulia, Zillow, and MLS only function in environments where public access to accurate, relevant information is guaranteed. Mexico deserves nothing less.
