Title Insurance

Undoubtedly, the majority of foreign property ownership in Baja California Sur is held by Americans. They often associate security in real estate ownership with the availability of title insurance. Since 1998, U.S.-style title insurance has been offered by companies such as Stewart Title, Fidelity, and First American. We can discuss the benefits and costs of this insurance with you to help you determine if it suits your needs.

In our transactions, we collaborate with a real estate closing attorney who will provide a title commitment based on an American-style title search prior to closing.

Title insurance protects against risks related to property titles—a concept familiar to buyers in the U.S. but less common in Mexico. However, as U.S. and Canadian citizens increasingly purchase second homes or lots in Mexico, the demand for title insurance has grown. This is especially true for buyers seeking financing from U.S. and Canadian banks or financing companies for building or purchasing commercial properties in Mexico. To meet this demand, title insurance services are now available in La Paz, Cabo San Lucas, and other locations in Mexico.
