We Love To Explore New Challenges & Markets
Kim Astren’s transition to Belize’s real estate landscape was not just a change in scenery, but a culmination of years of hands-on experience and expertise. With a rich background of 26 years in the service industry, coupled with her expertise and passion as a Certified Interior Designer, Kim has seamlessly blended her understanding of space aesthetics with the intricacies of property acquisition.
Belize didn’t just become a new home for Kim; it was an opportunity. Collaborating closely with her best friend and husband of more than 25 years, Dean, who boasts 27 years in construction and development, Kim quickly identified the unique demands and aspirations of buyers looking to settle in Belize. This holistic knowledge of both the practicalities of construction and the nuances of design has positioned her as a top real estate agent in the region.
Kim and Dean’s love affair with Belize began with a single visit. As they waited at the airport for their return flight, they found themselves yearning to come back. After numerous trips exploring the diverse regions of Belize, they were captivated by the charm of the Stann Creek area. They were thrilled when their daughter and grand-pups decided to make the full time move to Belize, while their son is maintaining his roots in central British Columbia with his fiancee and their pups and visits often (can you tell they are a dog loving family?)!
Kim’s approach to real estate is comprehensive. She not only aids her clients in finding the perfect property but also ensures that it resonates with their vision, lifestyle, and aspirations. Her intimate knowledge of Belize, especially the scenic Placeinca, empowers her to connect relocators with homes and properties that promise both value and a slice of Belizean paradise.
For those eyeing a piece of Belize, whether it’s a coastal retreat on the beach, a tropical jungle hideout, or a serene riverside property, Kim Astren stands as a beacon of trust, expertise, and passion. Dive into your Belizean real estate journey with Kim, and find a home that’s more than just an address.
Kim is eager to share her Belizean adventures, insights, and her wealth of knowledge in real estate with home buyers and sellers alike. Let her guide you through the magic of Belize and find that dream property you’ve always envisioned.
Dean Astren
With an impressive 27-year career in construction and development, Dean Astren now proudly serves as the Broker Manager for RE/MAX 1st Choice in the Hopkins / Sittee River region of Belize. His extensive background in leading operations and spearheading business development initiatives positions him as a seasoned expert.
Dean and his wife Kim decided to relocate from Canada to Belize after vacationing there and subsequently spending 5 years exploring this amazing country before settling in the Stann Creek area. Dean understands the nuanced concerns of buyers who are often navigating the Belizean real estate market for the first time. His approach is tailored to those with the desire for a simpler, adventure-rich lifestyle and knows the importance of proximity to North America, addressing both the emotional connection and practical considerations of his clients. Dean works closely with those looking to come to Belize, and ones looking to move back to their country of origin, or as they embark on their next global adventure.
His friendly and outgoing nature, combined with his deep knowledge of Belize’s diverse property offerings—from coastal gems to lush jungle retreats—ensures that clients feel confident and well-informed.
Beyond the sale, Dean is committed to the post-purchase experience for buyers, assisting with logistics and integration into the community, ensuring that every client feels supported throughout their journey to owning a piece of paradise. Whether it’s a couple seeking a shared dream home or an individual planning for retirement, Dean’s expertise and genuine care for his clients’ best interests make him the ideal guide in the Belizean real estate adventure.
When he’s not working with clients to find their dream property, you can find Dean on the pickleball court in Hopkins Village, with his family, or out and about in the community. Dean is dedicated to serving you and looking out for your best interest while providing world-class service. If this sounds like your kind of advocate, reach out to Dean today to begin your journey.
After traveling to and then Belize
