Steven “Clancy” Sherwood

Real Estate Agent

When it comes to buying, building or investing in Belize, few people bring what Steven “Clancy” Sherwood brings to the table, and even fewer have lived it the way he has. Clancy relocated from Maryland to Southern Belize 17 years ago, not as a tourist, but as someone who put down roots, broke ground and built a life.

He has personally navigated the process of buying and building in Belize and as co-owner of Scallywag Golf Cart Rental in Hopkins, he has run a successful business in the region. He doesn’t just know the market, he understands the system, the culture, the hurdles and exactly how to work through them.

Beyond his professional accomplishments, Clancy is an avid fisherman and diver, a person who works hard on land so he can go play in the sea. That deep connection to the land, the sea, and the community of Southern Belize is what makes him more than an agent. He is a trusted guide who listens, understands, and works tirelessly to match every client to their dream.

Kimberley Viner

Real Estate Agent

Originally from the heart of one of the busiest cities in the world I gave up my concrete jungle for Belize’s lush canopy. I found my place I’m proud to call home in the quaint fishing village on the Placencia Peninsula, where I have resided for over 15 years with my two best friends, my darling daughters. Some of my absolute favorite things to do are going to visit the Caye’s , snorkeling and fishing, boat and bbq life, laughing and cook ups with friends , rescuing baby turtles and hikes to the waterfalls. Sounds rough doesn’t it ?? ????

The beginning..

After receiving two Bachelors Honor Degrees in Business Management and Marketing and Advertising , my educational background led me to the field of Sales and Marketing where I became a Brand manager for multiple brands with a successful history of hitting and exceeding sales targets. My secret and strength is creating and maintaining strong customer relationships through great communication, honesty, dedication which are all qualities that are extremely important in the real estate business that you have someone you can trust.

I first visited Belize in 2004 and fell madly in love with what we call the “Jewel”. The friendliness of the people , the food, the music, the art, the humor, the melting pot of cultures , the sunsets, the diversity of landscapes , the fishing and reef , I could go on and on ……. I extended my trip multiple times and by the time I was on my way back home had made up my mind that Belize is where I wanted to be at. I returned to Belize in 2010 and opened a lounge Bar and Restaurant on the Placencia Beach.

A couple of years later I was head hunted to become part of the Sales and Marketing team for a beautiful high-end resort and residences “Itz’ana” . I worked here from “Ground Breaking” to “Grand Opening” and was their first employee where I stayed for 6 years until Covid.

These experiences created a solid foundation to building a unique and quality network of people and connections near and far contributing to my success and great friendships. I have since been solely in real estate and sell across all types of property sectors from Islands (yes islands!!), Land, Homes, Businesses and Resorts.

Whether it is a forever home you are looking for or an income property (or both!!) , my mission is to make your Belize Vision a reality and dream come true. I support and facilitate the whole buying and selling process from the beginning to the end and pride myself in providing a great after sales service. It would be my pleasure to share my village secrets and connections with you where to eat , what to do , who to call etc

If you are serious about buying or selling property , I am positive you will find that I would be your best representative and am your hardest working, most diligent agent with only your best interests in mind.

Theresa Prinsloo

Real Estate Agent

With more than 40 years of international real estate experience, Theresa Prinsloo is known for her integrity, sharp instincts, and unrelenting commitment to her clients.

Originally from Zimbabwe and then South Africa, she began her property career in auctioneering and valuation – gaining a technical, grounded understanding of how real estate builds value over time. Her passion for the industry led her to become a full-time Realtor, eventually joining RE/MAX in the Blouberg area of Cape Town, where she spent over a decade building a loyal client base and developing a reputation for service and results.

Theresa’s impressive track record includes multiple top-tier honors within the RE/MAX organization: the RE/MAX Hall of Fame, Diamond Club, Lifetime Achievement Award, and two-time Chairman’s Club recipient (2013, 2022). She also holds a Certified Residential Specialist (CRS) designation, held by fewer than 3% of agents globally, reflecting her high standards and continued professional development.

Her deep desire to escape harsh winters – combined with Belize’s English-speaking culture, ex-British colony heritage, straightforward immigration process, untainted food, and genuinely welcoming people – drew her to Central America. The natural beauty of Belize continues to inspire her, from its vibrant jungles and savannas to its stunning coastline and coral reefs. With the world’s second-largest barrier reef and the largest living reef system, Belize offers an unparalleled lifestyle that Theresa is proud to call home.

Now, as a member of the RE/MAX 17° Belize Team, Theresa brings all of her international experience, work ethic, and warmth to helping clients navigate the Belize property market. In a market where licensing is not required, Theresa stands out as a formally licensed Realtor with international credentials, bringing both accountability and peace of mind to buyers seeking transparency and professionalism. Whether you’re searching for a private island, a luxury beachfront home, or an income-generating investment with clear title, she is uniquely positioned to guide you through every step of the process.

Theresa believes real estate is not just a profession, ​it’s her calling. This is her sole vocation (aside from charity work), and clients benefit from her full attention, focus, and dedication.
