Acquisition Advisory
Navigating the Mexican Market
Acapulco, Tulum, Los Cabos, Puerto Vallarta, and Playa del Carmen have different property markets and local rules. Before assessing an acquisition, compare recent local sales, verify the specific property's lawful rental use, and review documented income and costs. Neither rental returns nor future price growth should be assumed.
We coordinate the full process: RFC tax ID registration, fideicomiso (bank trust) setup for coastal zone property, notarial process coordination, ejido land verification, and post-purchase setup.
What We Help Acquire
- • Coastal resort properties and vacation homes (fideicomiso structure)
- • City apartments and luxury condos in Mexico City, San Miguel de Allende, Mérida
- • Commercial and hospitality assets (boutique hotels, restaurants, B&Bs)
- • Land and development plots with verified title
Key Process Notes
RFC (Tax ID)
Required for all property transactions in Mexico. We assist foreign buyers in obtaining the Registro Federal de Contribuyentes early in the process.
Fideicomiso Trust
Foreign buyers in the restricted zone (50km coast / 100km border) must hold property through a Mexican bank trust. We coordinate setup with reputable banks.
The Notario Público
Mexico's notary is a state-appointed official who oversees the escritura (title deed). They ensure legality — we ensure your interests are protected before any signing.
Ejido & Title Verification
We coordinate independent title searches to confirm clear title, no encumbrances, and that the property is not built on improperly regularised ejido land.
Our team supports clients from Latin America, the Caspian region, Eastern Europe, and Central Asia considering property in Mexico for personal use or investment. Any rental-income plan needs a property-specific assessment.
