Inheriting Property in Mexico
If you have inherited property in Mexico it is recommended that you move into first position and establish new beneficiaries in your trust.
If you are from Canada, you'll need to have the death certificate certified and then take it to the nearest Mexican consulate to be ratified. At the same time you'll all sign a letter of instruction to the bank holding the trust, have it notarized and take that to the consulate as well. The letter will instruct the bank to recognize you as the new primary beneficiaries. Once that is done the Notario will draw up a public instrument establishing you as the primary beneficiaries and that will be registered with the city authorities. Contact us for information of costs and time involved. If the heir is in the US, the same process applies except that you would have to use an Apostille for the paperwork instead of having to go to the Mexican Consulate.

Real Estate Closing Services
Closings take a bit long considering that you must get permission from the federal government to set them up. Make plans for 2-3 months to complete the process. After closing your trust must be registered with the municipality, this also requires patience on the part of the buyer. Having the paperwork done properly, is well worth the wait.
Buyer will be responsible for the costs associated with the trust and federal acquisition tax (2% of the purchase price). These closing costs can be as much as six percent of the purchase price. The trust fees, your acquisition tax, and the Notario’s fees are the majority of your closing costs.
