Alex Poirier, an expert in real estate on the island of Roatan, works as a Buyer’s Agent for clients searching for their perfect Caribbean retirement/vacation property. Alex is the only agent in the Honduran Bay Islands that does not accept listings, but works solely for you, the buyer.
Alex’s policy is to show his clients all options available from all agents and agencies. In order to remain impartial, he does not accept listings so he can concentrate on helping you find your perfect home or home site. His knowledge of the island, construction and island ways, makes him an invaluable resource, not only as you buy, but as you become settled on the island. He is clearly focused on helping you “SEE IT ALL” so you can make the most informed decision.
In 2004, Alex completed a complete, ground-up renovation of a modest waterfront home in Calabash Bight, towards the unspoiled eastern end of the island. He shares his island home with his wife Marilyn, an Interior Designer, three dogs and two cats. With her experience as a successful Interior Designer, Marilyn is able to assist clients, at no extra charge, see the untapped potential when viewing homes and home sites.
Alex plays in a band on Friday afternoons and loves to sail, snorkel, and enjoy the beach on his time off.
Prior to moving to Roatan, Alex lived out his first retirement as a professional yacht captain, spending 7 years sailing all over the world, searching for that perfect island. Roatan is it!
Alex’s first career was in the automotive industry. He worked as General Manager of one of the top 100 Chevy dealerships in the United States. Alex was also involved with site selection and construction of several dealerships from the ground up.
Alex also managed a car distributorship in Saudi Arabia, building 5 satellite dealerships there, and selling over 1,000 cars a month. He then became a consultant to Ford Motor Company dealers all throughout the US and Canada, helping them to improve their customer satisfaction indexes. He brings that same passion for his client’s needs to his present role as your buyer’s agent.
The small, close-knit community on the island of Roatan means that you will likely not only be Alex Poirier’s client, but a neighbour and friend. He will work to make your transition to life in Roatan as smooth and enjoyable as possible.
