The State of the Union
The real estate and tourism markets here on the
16-mile Placencia peninsula continue to prosper. According to the Belize Tourism Board, 2014
saw an increase in tourism by 11.8% over 2013 and a spectacular 38% in just 3 years from 2011 to
2014! More and more beach homes are under
construction than ever before, beach lot inventory has dropped significantly
and prices have reacted
by increasing, two exciting luxury beach resorts have
broken ground after sitting idle for 10 years
and more and more amenities,
services, restaurants and activities (sky diving, chocolate making
tours,
zip-lining) are available. Our new private
tri-lingual elementary school has even expanded to
middle school and soon into high-school. There are entrepreneurs from around the world
moving
here as soon as they spend even
just a few days here. The Charm, Character and Buzz are simply
mesmerizing. We have very lucky clients here from around
the world: Norway, Russia, Germany,
Belgium, Holland, Hong Kong, England,
Mexico, Italy, and obviously the USA and Canada. The

Why choose Boris Mannsfeld & Associates as Your Belize
Representative?
Our firm is your professional one-stop-shop for anything regarding real estate on the Placencia
Peninsula. We are by far the largest and most successful and experienced firm here. Period! Our
team is much more than just another real estate agency. We live locally and invest locally. We do
exactly what we ask you to do…invest in the real estate market here. Frik De Meyer and Boris
Mannsfeld continue to invest heavily in the local real estate and tourism markets. Our team is
heavily committed to the local community. Frik started the new private school and Boris is involved
in various programs. We also hire local people and our team is up to 12 now (we just hired 3 more
Belizeans). We have developed various properties here from conception, to land purchase to
design and permitting, construction and then marketing and sales. We know how the property
purchase, development and building processes work and are happy to share our experiences and
mistakes with our exclusive clients. Our team works as one team to service our client’s best interest
so we are happy to show our buyers ALL the properties on the peninsula regardless of which firm
2nd Quarter 2015 Newsletter - Boris Mannsfeld & Associates Placencia Belize Real Estate
has the listings (unfortunately almost all agents here only show their own listings so to pocket a full
commission regardless of what is best for their buyer). We work for our clients and this is very clear
and simple amongst our team. Boris and Frik were also developers and real estate brokers in their
native homes (Denver and Brussels, Belgium) so we have the ethics, formal education and
experience on how to properly and ethically handle a real estate deal. You can view our client Testimonials on our website.

Leonardo DiCaprio Moves forward with his Island Eco Resort
Blackadore Caye in northern Belize was purchases by world-famous actor DiCaprio in 2005 and
development never got out of the ground after a deal with Four Seasons halted. On April 3, 2015
the New York Times published a lengthy article announcing the ground breaking of the project. Sure it is awesome that we have such significant celebrity and protector of the environment soon to
call Belize home but what I find most supporting is that he and his partner (Paul Scialla is a former
partner at Goldman Sachs and owner behind the ultra high end health centric development firm
Delos in New York) believe that the time is perfect now, today, to commence with a large luxury and
ultra pricey development project in Belize. It helps provide our clients the reassurance that we are
in the right spot at the right time. You too can jump on that boat before the boat sails away. Just
send us an email by clicking HERE so we can discuss the endless opportunities.

Placencia Lobster Fest 2015
This years’ Lobster fest was as everyone expected it to be, a blast. We had a fishing tournament, a
lionfish tournament, the cook-off, rum-punch competition and much more. The music was awesome,
the ambience was awesome and the crowd was awesome. The Benque Viejo Marching Band did a
spectacular parade through the main street of the Village and a not-to-be-forgotten presentation on
the beach later on that Saturday afternoon.
One of the most aromatic areas of the event was the food area. Lobster was on the Menu
everywhere and it was nothing less than delightful. There were lobster patties, lobster fritters,
lobster ceviche, lobster on a stick, Grilled lobster and much more lobster.
It was three nights of party. On Friday we had local DJ’s jamming, on Saturday we had Gilharry 7
Rocking and on Sunday we had the local Placencia Band closing off the events with a dance. It was
a wonderful weekend. Can’t wait for next year’s Lobsterfest.
Contact us for more information!
