Yes, foreigners can buy property in Mexico through a bank trust (fideicomiso) or a Mexican corporation, depending on the location and purpose of the purchase.

A fideicomiso is a legal arrangement that allows foreigners to purchase property in Mexico’s restricted zone (coastal and border areas). The property’s title is held by a Mexican bank on behalf of the buyer, who is the sole beneficiary. As the beneficiary, you have full ownership rights—you can sell, lease, remodel, or bequeath the property at any time. The trust typically lasts 50 years and can be renewed indefinitely.

Typically, you’ll need a valid passport, proof of legal stay in Mexico, proof of address, and a tax identification number. Additional requirements may apply depending on the transaction.
