Once a Mayan Horizon Realty advisor has helped you find the desired property, the first step is to make a deposit to take it off the market. Afterward, a letter of intent to purchase is delivered to the owner, outlining the conditions and payment methods. This letter grants us access to the legal documentation for review. Once the documentation is verified, a promissory purchase agreement is drafted, setting the agreed-upon dates and payments. A down payment (typically 30%) is made upon signing, and the remaining balance is settled 30 to 45 days later before a public notary. This timeframe allows for the processing of all certificates and documents required by the notary to prove that the property is free of any liens or debts.

Investing in Mayan Horizon Realty means access to an exclusive portfolio of high-value properties in the Mexican Caribbean. You will benefit from expert advice, transparent processes, and a solid return on investment thanks to the region's constant growth.

Closing Costs are the expenses incurred at the end of a real estate transaction. They include taxes, notary fees, registration rights, appraisals, and other administrative charges. They generally represent a percentage of the property's value and are an additional cost to consider.

Ejidal property is an agrarian regime in Mexico where land is owned by a community (ejido) and designated for agricultural, livestock, or forestry exploitation. It cannot be easily sold or mortgaged. For a foreigner, buying this type of property is complex and requires a process of disincorporation to private property.

The main taxes are the Real Estate Acquisition Tax (ISAI) when buying, and the Income Tax (ISR) when selling (if applicable). For properties in the federal maritime terrestrial zone, a Federal Zone right is also paid. It is crucial to consult a tax advisor to understand your specific situation.

Yes, of course! Foreigners can acquire properties in Mexico, but there are restrictions in the "Restricted Zone" (100 km from borders and 50 km from coasts). In this zone, a bank trust (fideicomiso) or a Mexican corporation is required. Our advisors will guide you through the entire process.

Risks may include legal issues with the property (liens, unclear titles), fraud, market fluctuations, or lack of knowledge of the processes. With Mayan Horizon Realty, we minimize these risks through thorough due diligence and legal advice.

Due diligence is a process of thorough investigation and audit of the property and its legal documentation before purchase. It includes verifying the property title, absence of liens, construction permits, tax status, and any other aspect that may affect the transaction. It is essential to ensure a secure purchase.

The purchase process in Mexico can vary, but generally takes between 30 and 60 days from the signing of the promissory purchase agreement to the final deed before a notary public, as long as all documentation is in order.
