🏡 Thinking of Buying a Home in Puerto Rico as a Localized Employee?
Before you say “¡Sí, quiero!” to that mortgage… let's talk credit.

If you’ve been localized in Puerto Rico as part of a corporate assignment, you may be eligible to apply for a local mortgage. But here's what many expats don’t realize:
📊 Your credit score can be your best friend—or your biggest barrier.
🇵🇷 Lenders on the island evaluate credit differently than what you may be used to.
💼 Your relocation package doesn’t automatically qualify you for favorable terms.

A higher score could mean:
✅ Lower interest rates
✅ Higher loan amounts
✅ Access to PR-specific mortgage programs
✅ Less money down

But if you don’t know what local banks are looking for—you could miss out on the best options.

☀️ So you’re moving to Puerto Rico?
You’ve been daydreaming in Spanglish, saving beach pics on Pinterest, and telling everyone “¡me voy pa’ Puerto Rico!” 🌴📱📌 🏝️

But wait... have you budgeted for the salt air that eats your furniture? 😬 Or the electric bill that makes you question all your life choices? ⚡😅

Here are a few “surprises” that even the pros don’t see coming:

🌀 Storm season = delayed deliveries + soggy couches
📦 Customs fees (yes, even for U.S. citizens — shocking, right?)
🚚 Tiny elevators + narrow staircases = $$$ to move in
💨 Salt air: the silent furniture killer
💡 Electric bills that belong in a horror movie

At Coquí Destination and Relocation Services, we don’t just help you relocate — we help you do it without going broke or bonkers. 💁🏽‍♀️💼🦎

✅ We’ve put together a real-life monthly budget + a list of sneaky expenses most people forget.

🌴✨ Old San Juan, Served Genuinely ✨🌴

At Coquí Destination & Relocation Services, we believe the soul of a place is found not in the polished brochures or tourist-favorite feeds — but in the corners where stories simmer, in kitchens where tradition isn’t marketed, but lived.

Too often, newcomers are pointed toward the “best of” lists that shine bright but echo little of Puerto Rico’s true essence. That’s why we guide our clients to the places that still feel like ours — the cafes and restaurants where abuelas once whispered recipes, where waiters call you “mi amor,” and where time slows to let culture speak.
Let us take you to:
🍴 El Jíbaro Moderno – a modern tribute to the island’s countryside flavors with unapologetically rich sazón.
☕ Café 4 Sombras (https://cuatrosombras.com/) – Tucked into a side street with beans roasted on-site and a quiet charm you’ll never find in a Starbucks.
🥘 Deaverdura (https://lnkd.in/g3KmMfje) No-frills, loud with laughter, and so deeply Boricua that even the walls feel like family.
🍳 Café Manolín (https://lnkd.in/gYPdiZXD) Where the morning starts right with café con leche and a side of island nostalgia.
🥐 Cafetería La Mallorca – (https://lnkd.in/gfGNaU8y) Classic, unshaken by trends, where powdered sugar and pressed sandwiches tell a sweeter story.

These are not just places to eat. They’re the heartbeat of San Juan, known by name to those of us born here — and often missed by those just passing through.

🏝️ At Coquí, we don’t Google our recommendations. We live them. We are Puerto Rico — and we bring you home.
📌 Ask us anything — from where to sign a lease, to where to find the best mofongo at 10AM. If it’s Puerto Rico, we know.
🔁 Coquí: Always Native. Always Local. Always Home.

✈️ Top 5 Mistakes Expats Make When Relocating to Puerto Rico
(And How to Avoid Them Like A Pro)

Relocating to Puerto Rico sounds like a dream—tropical weather, beautiful beaches, and a vibrant culture. But many expats arrive unprepared for the realities of life on the island.

Here are the top 5 mistakes I’ve seen firsthand—and what you can do differently:
🔹 1. Assuming It’s “Just Like the Mainland”
Puerto Rico may be a U.S. territory, but culturally and bureaucratically, it operates differently. From local holidays to “island time,” expect adjustments.
✅ Tip: Embrace the differences instead of resisting them. It’s part of the beauty.

🔹 2. Underestimating the Paperwork & Bureaucracy
Driver’s licenses, business permits, utilities—simple tasks can become complex if you don’t know the local processes.
✅ Tip: Partner with a relocation expert who knows how to navigate the system efficiently.

🔹 3. Choosing the Wrong Location
Not all towns and neighborhoods suit every lifestyle. Some areas have frequent power outages or poor internet.
✅ Tip: Define your priorities first—commute time, schools, walkability, etc.—and then choose wisely.

🔹 4. Not Factoring in Cultural Integration
It’s easy to stick with other expats and never connect with local life. But doing so limits your experience.
✅ Tip: Learn basic Spanish, attend community events, and be open to learning from locals.

🔹 5. Believing the Move Ends When You Land
Relocation is not a one-day event—it’s a process. Emotional adjustment, finding support systems, and settling in take time.
✅ Tip: Give yourself grace. And lean into guidance when needed—it makes a world of difference.

I created Coquí Destination and Relocation Services to support professionals and families relocating to Puerto Rico with a human touch and insider knowledge.
