Common Questions

Inquiries

Can foreigners safely buy property in the Riviera Maya?
+
Absolutely. Foreigners can purchase property through a fideicomiso (bank trust) or by establishing a Mexican corporation. We work with trusted notaries and banks to ensure a secure transaction. The fideicomiso gives you full ownership rights and is renewable every 50 years. We handle all paperwork and guide you through the SRE permit process.
What areas do you recommend for Canadian and American buyers?
+
For vacation rentals and investment, we recommend Playa del Carmen's downtown for walkability and strong rental demand, or Tulum's Aldea Zama for appreciation potential. For family living, Puerto Cancún and Puerto Aventuras offer gated security and marina access. Each area has distinct advantages depending on your goals—budget, lifestyle, or ROI.
How does pre-construction purchasing work in Mexico?
+
Pre-construction in Riviera Maya typically involves a payment schedule: 30% down, with subsequent payments tied to construction milestones. We only recommend developers with proven track records and proper escrow structures. Delivery timelines vary, but most projects complete within 18-24 months. We monitor construction progress and keep you updated throughout.
What are the closing costs and ongoing expenses?
+
Expect 4-8% in closing costs including notary fees, trust setup, and registration. Annual costs include property tax (predial, very low in Mexico), fideicomiso maintenance (~$500-800 USD/year), and HOA fees for condos. We provide a complete cost breakdown before any purchase so there are no surprises.
Can I generate rental income from my Riviera Maya property?
+
Yes, the Riviera Maya has one of Mexico's strongest vacation rental markets. Condos near 5th Avenue in Playa or in Tulum's beach zone command high occupancy December-April. We help identify rental-friendly buildings, verify HOA bylaws allow short-term rentals, and can connect you with professional property management companies.
