Resident portal · walkthrough

What you get once you've actually moved.

The research stops being the hard part the day you land. The portal is for the year after — the people you need, the dates you cannot miss, and one tap to reach either.

⚠️ This is a walkthrough, not a live account. Every name, number and date below is invented. Real listings are real people, and we will not put a fictional notario in front of you to make a demo look busy.

Your people in Ajijic

6 vetted · 2 you've used

Everyone here has been checked by us and vouched for by residents. A subscriber sees the professionals of their own town — reaching them in one tap is what the resident plan buys.

Free vs paid, plainly: the civic contacts (police, hospitals, utilities, consulates) in every country and town, and the general obligation calendar, are free to every member. The subscription adds the professionals of the town you choose; the resident plan adds your dates, your renewals, one-tap contact and the reminders that escalate before a deadline.

Only a member who asked us for an introduction can leave a review. That is why these counts are small — and it is the whole difference between this and a public review site, where nobody can tell a real customer from a competitor or a friend.

Your dates

Yours, not a generic checklist — built from your residency date and your property.

Conversations

Every introduction you asked for, in one place. A professional only ever sees the requests you personally sent.

AT Ana Torres · HandymanYou requested an introduction. Awaiting her consent.
You are never on a list. A professional receives your details only when you ask for that specific introduction, and only for that one. We never hand anyone a roster of members.
Included in your plan

The same subscription, before and after you move.

Start it for the reports while you are still deciding. It becomes this the day you arrive — no second purchase, no upgrade dance.
