Safety is a prime consideration in any investment, and Mexican real estate purchases have a long history of not being very safe. New laws in Mexico have changed all of that, and investors can rest assured that their money is absolutely safe when buying real estate in Mexico.
All land buyers who purchase real estate within 50 km of a coastline must place the deed to their land in a trust vehicle called a fideicomiso. The use of the fideicomiso permits the safe, secure transfer of land between seller and buyer.
A Mexican bank will hold the deed for your land in trust. The bank is obligated to act in the sole interest of the trust beneficiary – you! You control the bank’s actions with regard to your land and you cannot lose your ownership interest. The trust essentially creates a fee simple ownership of land and you have all the rights to the land that you would have if you held the title yourself.
Since the fideicomiso has been established, not one single owner has lost his ownership rights when using the fideicomiso. Simply put, it is the safest way to own land in Mexico. Don’t believe sellers who try to tell you that you don’t need a fideicomiso. That’s simply not true. By establishing the fideicomiso, you will circumvent the potential for problems to arise during your purchase of land.
Another safety mechanism you should look for is title insurance. All properties sold through Select Mexico Properties come with title insurance, so you can be certain that your land will not be subject to last-minute ownership claims or claims that arise after the sale. Your investment will be completely protected by a title insurance policy through First American Title.
By combining the protections of a fideicomiso and title insurance, you can be sure that your experience with buying real estate in Mexico is safe, pleasant and secure. If you would like more information about buying ral estate in Mexico, please contact Select Mexico Properties today!

Mortgage lenders are being bailed out left and right. The secondary mortgage market is in trouble. Credit is tight and getting tighter. Prices are rising for the necessities, like food, heat and transportation. Wages are stagnant, and things just aren’t looking good for people who are trying to plan their retirement lifestyle.
There is an excellent option at your fingertips that will enable you to enjoy the retirement lifestyle you’ve always dreamed of. You can live in a luxurious home that’s affordable and offers a high quality of life in sunny Puerto Vallarta.
Moving to Puerto Vallarta makes a great deal of sense, especially for retirees. The cost of living in Puerto Vallarta is exceptionally low. The cost of health care and prescription drugs is very reasonable. Food is plentiful and affordable. The water is clean; it meets the same standards that US municipal drinking water does. Transportation is widely available, and Puerto Vallarta is exceptionally easy to get to. The Puerto Vallarta International airport receives about 450 flights per week from practically all major US cities.
In addition to highly affordable living, land values in Puerto Vallarta are exceptional, and appreciate at the rate of about 10 percent per year. They’ve been doing that for about ten years, too. Mortgages are available for buying existing real estate, buying land and building homes. You can also refinance your home to take advantage of the significant equity that will accumulate.
You don’t need to change your retirement lifestyle to accommodate the downturn in the economy. Take your luxury retirement plans to a virtual paradise on Earth. You won’t find a more pleasant place to stay than Puerto Vallarta!

If your investment advisor is telling you that there are no good opportunities in real estate, he or she is only telling you half of the story. Right now there are plenty of good retirement investment options in real estate, as long as you’re looking at the right real estate market! Puerto Vallarta real estate is an excellent retirement investment, one of the best you can make right now. It’s one of the very few that are returning double digit gains.
The best part about this kind of retirement investment is that long-term financing is available in Mexico right now for the purchase of real estate. If you’re not familiar with the market, this might seem like a strange statement, but mortgages in Mexico are relatively new. The availability of long-term financing is very good for the retirement investor because it means that you can take advantage of the opportunity to get in on this investment right now without needing to tap into your retirement savings or other cash sources.
Additionally, long-term financing is available for land purchases and construction projects. You can finance the construction of your luxury Puerto Vallarta home and reap the benefits later.
A luxury Puerto Vallarta home is a safe retirement investment. You’ll enjoy double digit gains on your property as more people look to Puerto Vallarta as a retirement option, and the number of luxury Puerto Vallarta homes decreases relative to the demand. You’ll have a ready-made market to sell your home, if you choose to. If not, you can enjoy all that your luxury Puerto Vallarta home has to offer, while paying a fraction of what it would cost to maintain a similar home in the US or another developed market.
You simply won’t find a better retirement investment than a luxury Puerto Vallarta home right now. The time to act, however, is here. Puerto Vallarta luxury properties don’t last long, so please contact a Select Mexico Properties sales representative today and let us show you how to take advantage of the luxury Puerto Vallarta home market.
