    Javier A.R. Contreras Nieto

    Co-Founder of AAA Property Shield

    Co-Founder of Lighthouse - CEO/ Chief Attorney, Specializing in Real Estate Law and Procedures


    My journey commenced in various notary offices across Mexico City, where I had the honor of collaborating with esteemed banks like Santander and BBVA. Team primary focus was bridge financing for national and international investment projects, including renowned ventures and FIBRA -supported initiatives.


    Expanding my expertise, I ventured into the mortgage sector, serving financial institutions such as Banorte, Scotiabank, and BanBajío. Here, I took charge of title transfers for diverse real estate developments, prioritizing exceptional service standards.


    A significant highlight was collaborating in the vertical housing sector, engaging in every aspect from land acquisition and fiduciary services to anti-money laundering compliance, construction contracts, credit acquisition, and comprehensive title coordination for the entire development.

    Co-Founder of AAA Property Shield

    Co-Founder of Lighthouse, and a Serial Entrepreneur and Business Manager


    I am an experienced serial entrepreneur in the US and Mexico, with a deep understanding of the Playa del Carmen business landscape.


    With over 28 years of entrepreneurial success and a proven track record in opening, operating and scaling businesses, I bring a wealth of knowledge to the table. 


    The idea of AAA Property Shield emerged from many conversations wtih legal and real estate experts, to address the many pitfalls often encountered in our local real estate market.  


    We wanted to create a standard of excellence, to give investors a better option rather than taking a chance on a product being sold to them.  


    At AAA Property Shield we seek out and evaluate the finest developers and real estate properties, ensuring that our clients can invest with confidence and peace of mind.
