Origins of ECI Development and Belize Real Estate
Mike Cobb recounts his first trip to Belize in 1993 with a college friend involved in asset protection for physicians. He describes identifying a market gap where developers were failing because local banks refused to provide mortgages to foreigners. This realization led to the creation of a mortgage company in 1994 that bought developer paper, eventually evolving into a full-scale real estate development firm by 1996.
