Foreign buyers can legally acquire property in Mexico’s restricted zone, including coastal areas such as Puerto Escondido, Huatulco, and other beach destinations. In many cases, the most common structure is a fideicomiso, also known as a Mexican bank trust.
A fideicomiso allows a foreign buyer to use, enjoy, rent, sell, inherit, and control the property, while the Mexican bank holds legal title as trustee. This structure is widely used for foreign ownership of residential and vacation property in Mexico.
Lead The Future helps foreign buyers understand how the fideicomiso works, when it is appropriate, what documents are required, and how it connects with the notarial closing process.
This service may include legal explanation of the fideicomiso structure, coordination with the fiduciary bank, review of trust requirements, beneficiary designation guidance, document collection, notarial coordination, bank trust setup support, and communication with the parties involved in the closing. It is designed for foreign buyers who want to acquire property in Mexico legally, clearly, and with the right ownership structure from the beginning.
