It is completely possible and safe to buy property in Mexico as a foreigner. The two methods to do this are either through a Mexican trust structure called a “fideicomiso” or by setting up a Mexican LLC corporation. Using a fideicomiso is the fastest and most cost effective method. This structure is created with a Mexican bank and is facilitated by the use of a local notary. This structure can be created in the name of a foreign individual, group, trust or corporation. Once the structure is in place the owner of the fideicomiso has total security and all rights to use, occupy, lease, build, improve, and sell their property. Opening a Mexican LLC is a more time consuming and costly method but can be a superior option in the case of purchasing multiple properties. Zamaya can recommend professional, reliable and bilingual legal and notary contacts for every step of the purchase and closing process.

Closing costs in Mexico are typically 6% of the purchase price and are paid by the buyer. These costs include property purchase tax, property registration fee, public notary fee, legal due diligence and closing fees. In Mexico there is also a very low annual property tax payment (predial). This amount is roughly 0.20%, or a fifth of a percent of the purchase price per year. Zamaya can recommend professional, reliable and bilingual legal and notary contacts for every step of the purchase and closing process.
