Our 5-Star Reputation

I worked with Jonathon Clay at Panama Sovereign Realty. I live full time in the United States so it was critical for me to find somebody who I could trust and communicate easily with. From our first interaction, Jonathon was a great commincator and he made everything very easy for me. I ended up buying some property through him, and he made the entire process very easy, and held my hand through the whole thing. We closed months ago and Jonathon continues to communicate with me at a moments notice whenever I want to ask his opinion on something. He turned buying real estate in a foreign country into a shockingly easy and stress free process. Thank you Jonathon.

Elvin Vega, my realtor, has welcomed me to Pedasi with such genuine kindness and professionalism. I cannot say enough positive things about his character. As a foreigner, who does not yet speak English, and a first-time home owner, I have been a very needy client! Each time I call on Mr. Vega, he does not make me feel a burden. Not only has he helped me buy a house, he assisted me in buying a car and appliances for my house. As a locally-born Panamanian, he is extremely connected in the area and has offered me fabulous references for just about everything! Thank you Elvin Vega and Panama Sovereign Realty for making my dreams a reality!

Three Month update….. Panama, Pedasi, and Panama Sovereign Realty continue to surprise and delight our family. Here is the story from yesterday… My neighbor got his ATV vehicle stuck in a river bed near the beach while doing some nature exploring. He called me to help. While driving out to help recover the vehicle I bumped into Jonathan Clay from PSR. I explained the situation in passing. Jonathan proceeded to hop in his 4×4 and help rescue and recover my neighbor. He didn’t ask or waiver. Jonathan literally jumped in the river to help. I am so impressed with Jonathan Clay, Panama Sovereign Realty and the citizens of Panama. Everyone came together to help a foreign person out. Nobody expected anything in return. Everyone was unhurt and safe the vehicles were recovered in a fast manner due to all the locals helping out. Other countries could learn a lot about service and caring for others.

Panama Sovereign Realty is a great real estate agency in Pedasi. They are our three angels! They represented us purchasing a home in Pedasi this year and we couldn’t be happier with their experience, professionalism, and knowledge. After moving here, I have asked them numerous questions and advice for getting services to us and much more. I would highly recommend them to anyone considering listing their home or purchasing a home! Thank you Jonathon, Ted and Elvin!

Kenna Bolan

We listed our home in Pedasi with Tedd and Jonathan. They took excellent care of us from start to finish. Communication was great, and always professional. Tedd and Jonathan are knowledgeable about the area, they are part of the community, and they know the market well. We live in Spain and they took care of many details above and beyond to ensure things went smoothly for all concerned. We really can’t say enough good things , they were competent, personable and discreet. We would absolutely use their services again!

When I decided to sell one of my parcels of land in 2022 I didn’t know any Realtors so I asked some friends of mine in Pedasi and Venao who they recommended and consistently they said for me to call Sovereign Realty. I decided to list my property with Tedd and he found a buyer for my land and communicated with me every step of the way. Then I asked Tedd if he had any contractors he could recommend to build my home on our other piece of property nearby. Tedd sent me names and contact information for a couple of builders that he would recommend. I now have my dream home in Panama from one of the builders that Tedd had recommended to me. When I sold my property with Tedd I not only found a great realtor, I also found a good friend! I highly recommend Panama Sovereign Realty to everyone!

I very rarely take the time to write a review…I only do them if someone is really good or really bad. I’m here to tell you that Tedd Tennis from PSR has done a fantastic job for me. Tedd recently sold a property for me in Costa Pedasi, Panama. He is extremely professional and in tune with the market, responds to me right away, and follows up on everything to make sure things get done! I highly recommend him for for any real estate sales or purchases.

Rocky King

This is THE company to trust when looking for real estate. They take the time to know you as a person, not simply as a paycheck. They want you to be happy, and they work tirelessly to help you achieve your dream. Thank you Panama Sovereign Realty, you are truly the best!

As a U.S. Citizen, we were a little apprehensive about purchasing real estate in a foreign country, particularly one where English isn’t the dominant language. Jonathan allayed all of those fears, not only by helping us find the perfect lot for our family, but also by introducing us to builders and a fabulous lawyer who has guided us seemlessly through the process of obtaining a visa that will allow us to come and go in Panama as we choose. We deeply appreciate everything Jonathan has done for us and look forward to seeing him more and more as we join the Pedasi community.

Tedd Tennis
Co-Founder

When Tedd discovered Pedasi 20 years ago, he knew he had stumbled onto someplace special. A seasoned real estate professional with a love for travel, fishing, and golf, Tedd could sense the same burgeoning opportunity and widespread appeal he experienced in his former homes of Japan and Hawai’i. He set up shop in Pedasi in 2009 and to date has personally handled hundreds of successful real estate transactions in the area.

Tedd is passionate about introducing prospective clients to everything that Panama has to offer – starting with finding and acquiring the right property at the right price. A laid-back guy with a love for the outdoors and music, you’re as likely to find him singing blues at the local watering holes as you are touring prestigious clients around Panama’s most desirable beachfront properties.
