Common Questions About Investing in Mexico
Can foreigners own property in Mexico?
Yes. Foreigners can own property in Mexico through a bank trust (Fideicomiso) in the restricted zone (within 50 km of the coast or 100 km of the border), or by direct title if the property is located outside these zones
What is a Fideicomiso?
A Fideicomiso is a 50-year renewable trust established with a Mexican bank. The foreign buyer is the legal beneficiary, enjoying full rights of ownership, including the ability to sell, lease, remodel, or pass the property on to heirs.
What taxes should I consider as a buyer or investor?
At the time of purchase, buyers should account for closing costs, including property transfer tax (ISABI), notary fees, and trust setup fees if applicable. For future planning, investors should also be aware of capital gains tax upon sale. With proper documentation, deductions like inflationary credits and primary residence exemptions may apply.
What does “manifesting” construction mean?
“Manifesting” refers to officially registering your construction costs with the tax authority. This increases your cost basis, which can significantly reduce capital gains tax when you sell the property.
Is Mexico a safe place to invest?
Yes. Thanks to Mexico’s growing economy, expanding tourism sector, and legal ownership structures like the Fideicomiso, the country is considered a secure and stable real estate investment market—especially in high-demand destinations like Los Cabos.
What are the benefits of vacation rentals?
Los Cabos enjoys strong vacation rental demand, offering investors attractive income potential with the flexibility to use the property personally during unbooked periods. It’s a strategic way to balance lifestyle and return on investment.
