Can Foreigners Buy Property in Mexico?

Yes — with some structure required. Foreigners can own property in Mexico in two main ways:

  • Fideicomiso (bank trust): For properties within 50km of the coast or 100km of the border, foreigners hold property through a Mexican bank trust. You have all the rights of ownership. Setup cost: ~$1,500–$2,500; annual fee: ~$500–$700.
  • Mexican Corporation (SA de CV): An alternative for investment properties or if you have multiple properties. Requires ongoing accounting and compliance.

Closing costs in Mexico run 5–8% of the purchase price (notary fees, acquisition tax, registration). All property transfers must go through a Notario Público — their role is more significant than a U.S. notary.
