Owning a dream condo or home in Cabo San Lucas is an exciting and seamless process for foreign buyers! Once you find the perfect property, I will help you submit an offer and secure it with an earnest money deposit. From there, a trusted notary public will guide us through the legal process, ensuring everything is handled smoothly and professionally. Because Mexico protects its stunning coastal areas, foreign buyers use a fideicomiso—a secure bank trust that gives you all the rights of ownership, including selling, renting, or passing the property to heirs. This renewable 50-year trust ensures your investment is safe, legal, and entirely yours, allowing you to enjoy paradise with total peace of mind!

Closing costs typically range from 5% to 7% of the property's purchase price and include fees for the notary public, bank trust setup, property transfer tax, and other legal expenses. While costs may vary, they are a one-time investment to ensure a smooth and secure transaction.

Additionally, if you pay your property taxes early (usually in January or February), you may be eligible for a discount of 10% to 20%. This makes owning property in Cabo San Lucas even more attractive for investors and vacation homeowners!
