Relocation Services
Morelia & Patzcuaro
A Rosey Relocation
Rosey has helped me with vaccines, boosters, a temporary residency and is presently guiding me in my permanent residency. (And along the way she has been a voice as to the dos and don’ts of fitting in.) I can only imagine the grief and time she has saved me. Rosey: a treasure.
Danny C.
Rossy has been delightful to work with during my settlement into Morelia. Not only is she knowledgeable about the complex Mexican immigration process that expats face, her commitment to getting the job done is commendable. Her work ethic is professional and her positive, helpful attitude make living here a joy.

Expertise*
Rosey’s Skill Set, as I’ve experienced it* ….
> COMMUNICATON
Eleven years of working and living in the U.S. as a young adult helped Rosey polish her English. And being born in Mexico, of course, means that she’s a native Spanish speaker.
> NAVIGATION
Rosey navigates a fluid and sometimes confusing Mexican bureaucracy with ease. (Think: multiple forms, signatures, notaries, copies, certified translation, rules, regulations, and more. All in Spanish.)
With relative ease, Rosey also navigates Morelia and Patzcuaro with ease, geographically: map-reading, driving, parking, and the like. She knows exactly where INM is, for instance, because she’s been there a hundred times before–as well as dozens of other vital locations.
> TRANSLATION
This is obvious, I think. It’s a Spanish-speaking country. A Relocation Specialist who can translate on-the-fly (English-to-Spanish AND Spanish-to-English) is indispensable. ‘Makes the process seem far less daunting.
> TRANSPORTATION
A newer, dependable, comfy (!) car simply facilitates things! And Rosey provides this.

NOTE: Rosey has helped me find 3 different apartments, over a seven-year period, in 3 distinct Morelia neighborhoods. She’s also helped during a short hospital stay with my new, yet mild, heart problem, as well as recommending and accompanying me to routine appointments with 5 different doctors and a dentist across those 7 years. Not to mention my own Permanent Resident application.
My personal assessment of Rosey’s expertise?!?
In a word: Invaluable.

Fees
BY THE HOUR
$400 / Hour (MXN)
Together …
If we’re together and working, I charge my hourly rate.
In my office, at home …
I charge. (There are numerous situations where I’m working for clients without them present.)
In the course of providing relocation services, I translate, complete forms, print off forms, make appointments, call for information, clarify directions or addresses, say, send emails, respond to emails, and so on. The overall relocation process is more involved than it appears on the surface.
At Origo Cafe, with a client, simply chatting, and enjoying a latte ….
No charge, of course.
FLAT FEES
$ Varies
In a few instances, I do charge a Flat Fee. For example, acquiring Temporary and Permanent Resident visas.
This fee varies because circumstances of every expat varies. Too, the process itself shifts frequently in Mexico: more forms, fewer forms, notarization when notarized forms weren’t required previously. And so on.
Morelia to Patzcuaro, by car …
I typically add a very small fee to help offset transportation expenses when making the 70-mile round trip.
MISCELLANEOUS
No Charge
In addition to Hourly work and Flat Fee work, I’m oftentimes approached with general inquiries, text messages, and casual emails asking broad questions. I answer these inquiries “as time permits.” My Flat Fee and Hourly work comes first, of course.
To elaborate …
I balk at long series of questions—because the extended questions, over time, become part of a process. And to help expats in completing an entire process—start to finish—I charge. Acquiring permanent residency, for example.
In short, if you have a general question or an inquiry about how a process works—do write! I’ll answer as time permits. But if the inquiry is long and involved, we should discuss working together. The help I provide, I’m often told, is invaluable. (You save a LOT of time, energy, and aggravation.)
