FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Real Estate Legal Services

Once you have decided to purchase property a in Mexico, we will suggest that you complete the following steps. You can contact one of our offices in order to arrange for an appointment to meet with a lawyer who will assist you with the documents required and with the process. There is no fee for this service.

Our real estate legal services include collecting and verify all the documents necessary for the transaction. We will accompany, assist and review the Notary Public’s work before closing. Once all the documentation and title research is concluded the seller and the purchaser will execute a Deed of Sale by which title is transferred. This deed is referred to as an “Instrumento Público” which is the final document attesting to your acquisition of the rights relating to the property and which will be recorded at the Public Registry. At this point the remaining closing costs must be paid. This includes the real estate transfer tax, the personal property and value added tax, the final appraiser fees, the final notary closing fees, bank fees (if applicable), prorated taxes and assessments for the remaining portion of the calendar year, working capital (if necessary), and other costs which are identified for you on the Estimated Closing Costs which we will provide. 

Please note that in case of any discrepancy only the Spanish version shall prevail. If you have any questions throughout the process you can contact our legal department.

Once the deed of sale has been signed, we will verify that all the taxes, condo fees, and utility services are paid up to date. According to Mexican law, the buyer’s rights may be contested by a third party if the title has not been registered. Our lawyers will verify to ensure that the deed is recorded at the Public Registry.We also stand by our Title Guaranty by providing a certificate that the title is free and clear and cannot be contested. As the buyer, you should receive a copy of the title deed. Never assume the title has been transferred into your name without proof. 

It is important for owners, investors and mortgage lenders to secure a “good title” in order to have peace of mind about the property acquisition and a valid title when the time comes to sell the property. Once the transaction is concluded, a Title Guaranty will be issued by us after a comprehensive title search has been carried out on the property and a clear ownership of title has been established. We will guarantee to the buyer a free and clear title to the property and assume the responsibility to correct or remedy any defect. registered. Our lawyers will verify to ensure that the deed is recorded at the Public Registry.We also stand by our Title Guaranty by providing a certificate that the title is free and clear and cannot be contested. As the buyer, you should receive a copy of the title deed. Never assume the title has been transferred into your name without proof. 

When purchasing a property, an important consideration will be to determine under what conditions the transaction funds will be held and distributed. In most markets, attorneys or brokers will hold the transaction funds on behalf of the buyer. This is not recommended in Mexico, as neither Notaries, Mexican Lawyers nor real estate agents are certified by a government authority and legally cannot hold funds “In Trust”. We offers fully insured Escrow Services by receiving the funds “In Trust” in a segregated special account held in a Canadian Bank.
