Mexico Real Estate Purchasing Process; The Foreign Relations Permit

If the Mexico real estate property you are purchasing is already in a trust (fedeicomiso) you may either: request assignment of the rights to you, or may request a new trust for fifty years If a new trust, a permit from the Secretary of Foreign Relations is required Whether a new trust or an assignment of rights, the deed in the new buyer’s name must be registered in the National Foreign Investment Registry

When considering a new trust or an assignment of rights here in the La Paz real estate market, the factors we consider are: 1. Remaining term of the existing trust – when will it need to be renewed ; and 2. – What are the annual fees under the existing Mexico bank trust If the permit has an unexpired term of less than fifteen or twenty years and/or the annual bank administration fees are more than $500.00 U. S. Dollars, it probably makes sense to obtain the permit for a new fifty year trust with a bank offering more attractive fees
