Ownership of Branded Residences in Mexico

A common question asked is “Can foreigners purchase property in Mexico?” The simple answer is absolutely! Not only is it possible, but it is also very popular, especially in tourist destinations like the Riviera Maya, Puerto Vallarta, Riviera Nayarit, and Baja California.

Consider Creating a Corporation to Purchase

A foreigner can also acquire property by establishing a Mexican corporation. There are a variety of different corporations that can be established so it is necessary to seek professional advice from a lawyer to determine the best option for you and your interests.

A Mexican legal entity has the capacity to acquire real estate in the national territory just as a Mexican citizen would so there is no need to create a bank trust to act as the intermediary. However, Mexican legal entities of any kind have tax and legal obligations they must comply with, such as the provisional payment of taxes on a monthly basis and a definitive payment of taxes on a yearly basis.

Another thing to consider is that a Mexican legal entity can acquire as many real estate properties as it desires with no restrictions to the maximum number. This is an effective way to invest in real estate in Mexico as the company may also deduct expenses related to its operation.
