Puerto Vallarta, Mexico – CRATE Interiors joined the AMPI Vallarta & Compostela’s Posada 2025 as a supporting sponsor, helping celebrate the achievements of top-performing real estate professionals across Puerto Vallarta and the greater Banderas Bay region.
Held along the waterfront at Daiquiri Dick’s, the evening highlighted bold design, elevated hospitality, and the strength of the local real estate community. Attendees were treated to exquisite, tray-passed hors d’oeuvres, expertly crafted cocktails, a live location broadcast, and a grand finale that included a spectacular light show, fireworks over the bay, and dancing.
This year’s gathering honored a resilient network of AMPI realtors who continued to hit performance goals despite one of the most challenging market cycles since 2010. Local agents adapted to shifting conditions, embraced new technology, invested in training, and introduced innovative strategies to better serve foreign buyers and vacation-home investors. This professionalism and dedication to clients serve as a genuine source of inspiration.
CRATE Interiors took the opportunity to underscore its commitment to the AMPI community. As a turnkey furnishing partner for North American buyers in Mexico, the company has helped realtors stage listings, refresh older homes, relaunch stagnant properties, and furnish luxury villas and vacation rentals across Puerto Vallarta, Bucerías, Punta Mita, Sayulita, and the greater bay area. Their goal remains clear – support realtors in closing faster and delivering move-in ready homes.
This partnership is rooted in a shared philosophy, as expressed by the unifying sentiment, “One community, one bay, one team.” The success of one member in the community is viewed as a success for everyone.
This commitment was highlighted by the company’s founder, Debra Stevenson, who was invited to share CRATE Interiors’ dedication to the AMPI community. “I started CRATE Interiors here in Puerto Vallarta 15 years ago as the ultimate turnkey furnishing solution for North American buyers in Mexico,” Stevenson remarked. “Today – thanks to the support of this community – every week, every month and every year, we help AMPI realtors deliver vacation homes, luxury villas and rental properties around the Bay of Banderas that are fully furnished, styled and move-in ready.”
The company’s impact extends beyond design, creating significant local benefit. Every high-quality installation is executed by a network that includes seven locally based, family-run teams and three dedicated designers who comprise the CRATE Interiors crew. This structure actively supports multi-generational families with incentives and career pathways. They also donate gently used furnishings from renovation projects to local charities. By providing consistent, professional-grade work, CRATE Interiors supports local jobs and families while elevating the standards of vacation home design and hospitality in Mexico.
The mission of CRATE Interiors remains to “move dreamers to paradise, one beautifully installed home at a time.” They offer a full range of services to support their real estate partners, including designing model suites and co-marketing programs, staging and relaunch packages, full-service renovation for legacy properties, as well as FREE DISCOVERY CALLS and budget-setting experiences for new homebuyers.
The team at CRATE Interiors extended their gratitude to every realtor, broker, developer, and property manager they collaborated with throughout the year, wishing them and their families a joyful holiday season.
