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.
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.
Yes. You can complete the purchase remotely by granting a Power of Attorney to a trusted representative, who will handle the closing on your behalf.
How long does the closing process take?
Closings typically take about 45-60 days, though holidays, permits, or bank timelines may cause delays. Our team works to minimize disruptions and keeps all parties informed.
Closing Costs in Mexico generally include:
Notary fees
Trust setup fees (if applicable)
Property transfer taxes
Escrow fees
Appraisal costs
Legal fees
Capital gains tax (for sellers)
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.
Q: How is capital gains tax calculated?
It’s based on the difference between what you paid and what you sell for, but the final amount can vary a lot depending on how the transaction is structured.
Q: Can I reduce the tax I have to pay?
Yes. Expenses like closing costs, commissions, and even property improvements can help lower your taxable gain, but only if they are properly documented.
Q: Do foreigners pay taxes when selling in Mexico?
Yes, but the way the tax is calculated can change significantly depending on your situation. In some cases, you could pay more than necessary if it’s not handled correctly.
Q: How do I make sure I don’t overpay?
The key is proper planning and documentation. Having the right legal and tax guidance can make a major difference in the final amount you pay.
An apostille is an official certification that validates a document issued in one country so it can be legally recognized in another. It is commonly required for documents such as birth certificates, powers of attorney, and corporate records to be used internationally.
