Why the island trusts us.
We were here first.
Roatan Life opened in 2001, and our broker Steve Hasz first came to the island in 1992. That history shapes every showing, every valuation and every negotiation.
A clear path for foreign buyers.
We walk buyers through title, legal counsel and closing, step by step and in plain language, with trusted local partners at each stage.
With you after the sale.
Introductions, property advice and a standing welcome to the community come with every purchase, for as long as you call the island home.
One team, the whole island.
From our offices at Lawson Rock Business Center, our agents cover every area from West Bay to the East End, so one relationship opens every door on Roatan.
The people ensuring your real estate transactions are flawless.

What our clients remember.
Your team has delivered on your initial promise that “we will be there for you after the sale.” Our heartfelt thanks to all for helping to make our retirement dream a reality!
Retirement home buyers, clients since 2009
They found us the perfect location, and we negotiated a fair offer. Then COVID hit, and we couldn’t return to the island for closing… We closed the deal remotely thanks to their hard work.
Buyers in Palmetto Bay, working with John and Barbara Morris
His extensive market knowledge and strategic pricing guidance enabled us to sell quickly at our asking price… Despite our absence at the time of closing, Steve coordinated every aspect of the sale and kept us informed throughout the process.
Sellers, working with Steve Hasz
Not only is he prompt and professional, but he actively solves logistical issues before you can even contemplate worrying about them. He made the process of buying at a distance painless and stress-free.
Buyers from abroad, working with Mike Carter
They quickly understood our needs and found the right fit. They were responsive throughout the process and helped us close within a week… True professionals. We highly recommend them!
Home buyers in Sandy Bay
I was a nervous first time buyer who asked him many questions; he is patient and vigilant. Thanks again Herbie, I love my place.
First-time land buyer, working with Herbie Jackson
It took two years before our dream home became a reality, but they patiently supported us the whole time… They make home-buying fun and never pushy.
Buyers of a part-time home and rental
After buying our home, we know that if there’s anything we need, we can still call Mike, and he is always willing to help.
Home buyers with two young children
We are very impressed with your diligence, effort, professionalism, friendship and helpfulness.
Buyers in Lawson Rock
He and his staff had regular showings and managed to sell my home during the worst economic conditions. I also credit Mike with holding the deal together during some difficult negotiations.
