Fideicomiso’s

Property Ownership by Foreigners in México? Yes, ownership via a fideicomiso.

Prior to Mexico’s leadership of the 1970’s seeing the need for secure foreign investment and created a way for foreigners to invest in Baja real estate, all of Baja’s Coastlines, shores and waters where off limits to foreign ownership under terms of the 1916 Constitution. But that all changed by adoption of and useage of a trust called a “fideicomiso”, a mechanism perfected in Monaco. The model is exactly like a US living trust, with your banker hired to act as trustee. A new trust has a 50 year term, can be renewed by law, and the property can be transferred, willed, built on, mortgaged and otherwise dealt with without significant limitation. Several American title insurance companies insure these ownerships.
