The Virtual Closing, Keeping Things Simple

THE VIRTUAL CLOSING®,

the settlement company® is working to keep things moving on your Mexican property purchase in spite of the pandemic!!

Once you have selected that great property in Mexico, and you and your agent have negotiated a successful offer,  what is next?

How can you be sure that you are going to have a title to the property, and that it will be done properly? 

Especially in these days of restricted travel?

In any country a real estate closing requires a thorough review of the title documents, the property tax payments, the liens on the property.  If there are liens, if property taxes have not been paid, these must be taken care of and paid prior to transfer of title.

If the property is residential and is located in the “restricted” zone, a permit for a Mexican bank trust must be obtained, or arrangements made for assignment of the existing trust.   A thorough review of the trust document is required in order to determine which is best in each case.

A major benefit of buying property through the Mexican bank trust is that you can name beneficiaries to succeed you upon your death.   Naturally this selection needs to be done carefully so your instructions are clear and not subject to misinterpretation.   Another important item:  is property to be taken in joint tenancy or tenancy in common?  The words have to be correct and understanding complete in your deed.

We can do all of this, and more! through the Virtual Closing®!!

No one meets personally, but the work is accomplished.
