FAQs

Yes, a foreigner can own property in Mexico. Mexico has relatively liberal laws and regulations regarding foreign ownership of real estate. However, there are certain restrictions and considerations that foreigners should be aware of when purchasing property in Mexico. In 1917, Mexico established the “Restricted Zone,” which refers to areas within 100 kilometers (about 62 miles) of the country’s borders and 50 kilometers (about 31 miles) from the coastline. Historically, foreigners were prohibited from directly owning property in these zones, but in recent years, certain changes in the law have made it possible for foreigners to acquire property within the Restricted Zone through a fideicomiso (a bank trust) or a Mexican corporation. Here’s a breakdown of the common ways for foreigners to own property in Mexico: 1. Fideicomiso (Bank Trust): Foreigners looking to purchase property within the Restricted Zone, particularly in tourist and coastal areas, will often acquire the property through a fideicomiso. This is a trust agreement established with a Mexican bank acting as the trustee, holding the legal title to the property on behalf of the foreign buyer. The buyer, in turn, becomes the beneficiary of the trust and has full control and rights to use, sell, lease, or pass the property to heirs. 2. Mexican Corporation: Foreigners can also own property within the Restricted Zone through a Mexican corporation. However, this option might have more extensive legal and financial implications, so it’s advisable to consult with a qualified attorney before proceeding with this option. 3. Outside the Restricted Zone: Foreigners can directly own property in areas located outside the Restricted Zone without the need for a fideicomiso or corporation. It’s crucial for foreigners to follow the proper legal procedures, work with reputable real estate agents, and seek guidance from experienced Mexican attorneys who are familiar with the specific rules and regulations related to foreign property ownership in Mexico. This will help ensure a smooth and secure transaction.
