Our Real Estate Legal Services

 

Property Purchases & Sales

We guide clients through the full buying or selling process, including:

• Reviewing and drafting purchase agreements.
• Conducting due diligence to confirm clear title and absence of debts or liens.
• Coordinating closing and registration of title.

 

Our team ensures that your application meets every requirement, avoiding unnecessary delays or rejections.

 

Escrow Services

As a neutral third party, we can hold funds securely until all contractual obligations are met. Escrow services provide peace of mind for both buyers and sellers, especially in cross-border transactions.

 

Fideicomiso (Bank Trusts for Foreigners)

Foreign buyers purchasing property in Mexico’s “restricted zone” (near the coast or borders) must use a fideicomiso, a bank trust that holds title on their behalf. We assist with:

• Establishing and reviewing fideicomiso agreements.

• Coordinating with authorized banks.

• Ensuring compliance with Mexican regulations.

 

Leases & Rental Agreements

We draft and review contracts for both long-term and vacation rentals, ensuring:

• Landlords are protected against liability.
• Tenants have clear rights and responsibilities.
• Agreements comply with local rental laws.

 

Property Development & Investment

For developers and investors, we provide legal support with:

• Land use and zoning compliance.
• Construction contracts and permits.
• Joint ventures and investment structures.
