The Cabo Experience for Foreign Buyers
Cabo’s real estate market is just as lucrative for foreign buyers as it is for Mexicans. However, there are differences on a few aspects that you need to be familiar with. If done right, you can acquire full ownership rights and benefits over the property regardless of your nationality. Yet, there are a few things you need to be aware of beforehand:
The Mexican Restricted Zone
All the land within 30.5 miles of Mexico’s ocean coast line is, by the definition of Mexican Constitution, the restricted zone. Baja California Sur, including the Los Cabos municipality lies within that zone. Restricted zone is the area where foreign ownership is not recorded on a fee simple-basis. In fact, it is held within Mexican Trust through “Fideicomiso” i.e. using a Mexican bank as the trustee for the trust.
Fideicomiso
Fideicomiso is similar to Bank Trusts or Family Trusts in the United States. Fideicomiso has proven to be very helpful in effective estate planning not just for foreigners, but also the nationals in Mexico. Sit with one of our agents to get complete and comprehensive understanding of how it works and why it is important. Their knowledge of local laws, regulations, and real estate can prove extremely beneficial to your decision and overall experience of buying property in Cabo.
