FAQS
Yes, foreigners can buy property in Mexico, including in coastal areas. However, within the restricted zone (50 km from the coast or 100 km from the border), foreigners must use a bank trust, called a fideicomiso, or set up a Mexican corporation to hold the title.
Closing costs in Mexico are typically higher than in the U.S. or Canada, ranging from 5% to 10% of the purchase price. These include notary fees, transfer taxes, bank trust setup (if applicable), and other administrative fees.
With the proper due diligence and a trustworthy real estate agent, investing in Mexico is safe. It’s essential to work with professionals who understand local laws and can guide you through the process.
Property taxes in Mexico, called predial, are relatively low compared to Canada and the U.S. If you’re in a coastal area using a bank trust, you’ll also pay an annual fee for its maintenance. Book a call
