my fight

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.” - Theodore Roosevelt

My resumé






Hello.
My name is Roberto Pino, and it is my pleasure making your acquaintance.

I was born in Buenos Aires in 1956. I moved to New York in 1971 where I attended High School and College (Architecture) for 2 years until I definitively moved to Italy in 1976. At the beginning in Rome, then in Ravenna, I worked in one of the major italian banks (unicredit banca) starting as an employee and afterwards becoming Manager in 1991 until 1999 when I left my banking career to undertake a new adventure in Financial Advisorship in UnicreditSim.

Stock Exchange's 2000 Crack forced me to explore other fields: from Insurance to sales & marketing Manager in the wine high quality market; from Financial Manager in a Printing Co. , from Food & beverage to Tourism and Hotel fields ...to finally land into "Financial Loans" and "Real Estate" business.

My latest qualification is in the Real Estate and since july 2007
I’m dealing now a few projects in Riviera Maya (Mexico) and have my own company in Real Estate and Hospitality -buildings, land, hotels to sell- 
In possession of regular IMMIGRATE permit (FM2) to work in Mèxico,






















Since 2007 I had my own personal Firm “Borgo Antico” where I operated as a Loan Advisor registered as "mortgage broker" until the Subprime crisis.
The consequent Credit Crunch and recession in the Italian banking system due to  the deep  -and actually ongoing- lack of liquidity, made the mortgage business in Italy very critical, making me change my goal directions and program my future projects abroad. 
In such panorama I get my italian qualification as a Real Estate Agent passing State examinations in Ravenna with the best average out of 70 participants.
In Mèxico I operate since 2008.
My Real Estate Company alongwith my wife Alejandrina:  Selem & Co Riviera Maya S.A. de C.V.  (www.selemandco.com) deals from Holbox at north through  Xcalak up to the upmost southern border; with developers and private owners' building projects in Riviera Maya (Mexico); deals in   Property Care; in national, ejidal and private land, apartments,villas either for sale and for vacational rentals.

lMexico:

Under swine flu times I worked under Grand Coral developer (Spain) for Mareazul & Nick Price and Emerald building projects for about 4 months leaving finally the group as there where nobody who invested in such critical period in Mexico.
I then decided to start my own business in the Hospitality sector (a Bed & Breakfast) and later on I was engaged by a  friend into the  Property Management and Care for a Real Estate Agency (InvestateOne- Grupo Diversa Corporativo) . 

Since 2010 I work in México on my own as a real estate advisor.

I always try to find in my work the positive side and necessary spur.
I believe in flexibility, diversification, with a vision of work in its entirety.
I like to be a Counselor and a "problem solver" at 360°.
The more one opens his mind, the more he can give to others.
That’s why I search always new ways to construct my own business and future.

Today I accept challenges and I work in Real Estate and Hospitality
