Special Notes on Mexico Property Ownership

In Mexico, if a property is located in the restricted zone, a non-resident foreign national has to own their property through a Bank Trust or Fideicomiso.  The restricted zone is any land located within 50km (about 30 miles) from the coastline or 100km (about 62 miles) of any of Mexico’s international borders.  Property that is financed is held in a Guaranty Bank Trust.

Frequently Asked Questions – Mexico Home Loans for Americans

Can Americans get a mortgage to buy property in Mexico?

Yes. Through our partnership with Citadel Mortgages, U.S. citizens can finance the purchase or refinance of a residential property in Mexico. The mortgage is issued in Canadian dollars with flexible terms and simple qualification steps.

You’ll need a minimum of 30% down based on the property’s purchase price or appraised value. This applies to both purchase and refinance transactions.

Eligible property types include:

  • Residential homes

  • Townhouses

  • Condos

  • Pre-construction condos (note: title must be finalized before funding)
    Commercial or mixed-use properties are not eligible.

No. You do not need Mexican credit or a Mexican bank account. All lending is done through a Canadian-based institution, and all transactions are handled by a cross-border legal and banking team.

On average, the full process takes 4 to 7 weeks from application to funding, depending on how quickly documents are provided and the property’s legal/title readiness. You’ll receive conditional approval within 24 hours of submitting your complete application.
