Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Fideicomiso (Mexican Real Estate Trust)
What Is a Fideicomiso? A fideicomiso is a bank trust that allows foreigners to legally own property in Mexico’s restricted zone (within 50 km of the coast or 100 km of the border). The bank holds the title as trustee, but you retain full ownership rights, allowing you to sell, rent, or pass the property to heirs. The trust lasts 50 years and is renewable indefinitely.
Why Is It Secure?
Government-Regulated – Banks follow strict financial and legal oversight.
Full Ownership Control – It’s not a lease; you have full property rights.
Flexibility – You can sell or transfer ownership anytime.
A fideicomiso is a safe, established method for foreigners to invest in Mexican real estate with confidence.
How is property titled in Mexico?
Similar to the U.S., you can title property in Mexico through:
• Individual name(s) (joint tenancy or tenants-in-common)
• Family or individual trust
• LLC or other corporation/partnership.
Consult your U.S. legal or accounting advisors to choose the best option, as tax and legal implications for foreigners remain consistent regardless of title structure.
How do I create a Fideicomiso?
The process is straightforward and includes:
• Drafting the Trust: Legal professionals collaborate with a notary to draft the trust agreement.
• Coordination: Our team handles communication with the Trustee Bank and ensures compliance with Mexican regulations.
• Finalization: Once completed, you gain full rights to manage and enjoy your property.
How long does the closing process take?
Closings typically take about 60 working days, though holidays, permits, or bank timelines may cause delays. Our team works to minimize disruptions and keeps all parties informed.
What should I expect in terms of costs?
Closing Costs in Mexico generally include:
Notary fees
Trust setup fees (if applicable)
Property transfer taxes

These costs vary depending on the property’s value and location. It’s important to factor in these expenses to ensure a smooth and transparent transaction.
