KeyCrew Media, an expert-first real estate media company, has selected Ed Eakin, REALTOR® and leader of the Eakin Group, as an expert source on luxury and golf course developments, buying property in Mexico as an American, and international residential real estate in the Los Cabos market. The partnership, announced on October 7, 2026, will feature Eakin as an expert voice across KeyCrew’s editorial network, deepening the company’s coverage of luxury and golf course real estate in Los Cabos.
Eakin joins KeyCrew’s growing roster of expert sources across hundreds of markets worldwide. Through the partnership, KeyCrew’s team will work with Eakin to co-produce dedicated thought leadership, development features, and market insights on Los Cabos luxury real estate and cross-border buying, published across KeyCrew Media’s portfolio of publications and distributed through its network of syndication partners, portals, and AI platforms.
“We’re delighted to be working with Ed and the Eakin Group. Buyers coming to Cabo are making significant decisions in a market with its own laws, language and way of doing business, and Ed brings decades of certified, international experience to that conversation,” said Steve Marcinuk, Co-Founder and CEO of KeyCrew. “Sharing what he’s seeing on the ground with an open, non-paywalled audience of buyers and investors is exactly what this partnership does.”
After years of selling real estate in Mexico from Texas, Eakin has moved to Cabo San Lucas full time, where he works directly with high-end developers to connect buyers from California, Texas, the wider United States, and Canada with luxury and golf course communities. In a market where many practitioners work as advisors or consultants, he brings the standards of a certified REALTOR® and a deep international track record. He earned his CIPS designation in 2012, now teaches it to agents around the world, and was the second recipient of NAR’s CIPS Excellence Award. He was named International REALTOR® of the Year in Dallas–Fort Worth in 2022, serves as one of NAR’s 30 Global Ambassadors, representing Belize, Barbados, and Trinidad and Tobago, and holds global leadership roles with MetroTex, HAR, ABoR, and Texas REALTORS®.
“I moved to Cabo for the lifestyle – the golf, the water, and a luxury market that’s still moving,” said Ed Eakin, REALTOR® and leader of the Eakin Group. “Buyers here deserve representation from an established professional who knows the developers and has a team in place to make sure everything is done right. Partnering with KeyCrew Media is a chance to share that with buyers before they ever sign.”
Coverage is underway. KeyCrew’s first articles with Eakin explore Puerto Los Cabos, the 2,000-acre master-planned coastal community just east of San José del Cabo, and what U.S. buyers should understand before buying in Mexico, from the fideicomiso bank trust to the role of the notario and protecting a pre-construction deposit. Ahead: branded residences in Belize, more of Los Cabos’ luxury golf communities, and why Texas buyers are making the move to Cabo.
Eakin’s areas of expertise include Los Cabos luxury and golf course communities, buying property in Mexico as an American, developer representation, Texas-to-Cabo buyers, and international and Caribbean property. This partnership matters because it provides U.S. and Canadian buyers with accessible, expert-driven information on navigating Mexico’s real estate laws and seizing opportunities in a growing luxury market. By leveraging KeyCrew’s network, which reaches over 40,000 professionals and syndicates to 300+ publications, platforms, and AI engines, the collaboration aims to empower buyers to make informed decisions.
