Frequently Asked Questions

Yes — foreign buyers can purchase land within 50 km of the coast using a fideicomiso (bank trust) or via a Mexican corporation for commercial use, with full rights to buy, develop, rent, and resell.
Most pre-construction properties require a refundable deposit of $5,000 USD to secure the unit. Our properties are in high demand so this deposit secures the unit while contracts are drafted. Typically buyers make a down payment of 30% but larger down payments lead to larger discounts. The rest of the payments are made according to negotiable payment plans spreading the cost over the construction time, allowing investors to enjoy better liquidity before delivery.
The closing process, including the fideicomiso and notary registration, typically takes 60–90 days once the purchase agreement is signed.
For foreigners investing in Mexico, the best way to obtain finance is to do so at home. In the US, you may take a Home Equity Loan or Home Equity Line of Credit. Financing in Mexico is typically 8%-9% plus fees and involves a lengthy process.
Closing costs are typically 7% of the property value. This includes the acquisition tax, recordation fee, certificate of no liens, municipal appraisal, legal and closing fees, and public notary fees. The yearly property tax in Mexico is typically 0.1% of the property value. HOA fees typically start from $2.5 USD per square meter per month depending on the amenities included.
To ensure a property has a clear title, conduct a title search through a reputable notary or legal professional. This process verifies that the seller has legal ownership and that there are no liens or encumbrances on the property. Working with experienced local professionals can help navigate this process.
Tulum is generally a safe place to visit and to live. On Numbeo, whose crime index is built from residents' and visitors' own reports, Tulum currently scores lower than many large US cities, Miami among them. Like any busy tourist destination it has occasional serious incidents, and these rarely involve visitors or residents going about their day. The usual travel precautions apply, as they would anywhere popular with visitors, and forums for first time travellers to Mexico carry plenty of practical advice on avoiding scams and petty theft.
Prime zones include Tulum Hotel Zone, Aldea Zama, La Veleta, Region 15, and Holistika, where proximity to amenities, infrastructure, and tourism demand supports long‑term value.
