Questions Clients Frequently Ask
Can Americans buy property in Mexico?
Yes. Americans can legally purchase property in Mexico directly or through fideicomiso
structures depending on the location and circumstances involved.
Do I need a fideicomiso to buy beachfront property?
In many restricted zones near the coast or borders, foreign buyers commonly acquire property
through a fideicomiso structure.
How do presales in Mexico work?
Presales in Mexico often involve staged payments during construction before the property is
completed. Buyers should carefully review contracts, permits, title matters, delivery obligations,
and developer background before investing.

MexLawClinic assists clients already facing title conflicts, co-ownership disputes, inheritance
issues, presale concerns, or other legal problems involving Mexican property.
