Filed Under: Mexico Property Management, Mexico Rental Property

Hello, I’m Thomas Lloyd and this is the Top Tip in a Minute…
Today we are talking about: Buying Property in Mexico

4 Basic Steps Involved in Buying a Property in Mexico:

Now you have found that perfect paradise property, now what? There are four basic step that you have to execute once you find that property.

  1. Place an offer to purchase. That offer to purchase then matures into a promissory contract.
  2. During the promissory contract you will setting up the bank trust.
  3. The next step is to take that promissory contract and convert it into a purchase sales contract. That purchase sales contract is what is formalized with the notary public.
  4. The final step is to take that notarized title and make sure it gets registered with the public registry.

Now remember, if you are buying a property outside of the restricted zone you do not need a bank trust or a promissory contract.

Those are the four basic steps when buying real estate here in Mexico.
