Home Ownership for Expats in Mexico
A recent series of articles by San Francisco Chronicle busines section columnist Kathleen Pender has highlighted overseas real estate ownership by Americans. This past Sunday she presented two additional articles specifically about buying real estate and living in Mexico.
She cites Mexico and Central America as being attractive for American buyers, because of their relative closeness and that real estate is relatively inexpensive (the relative is conditional, however, because if you currently live in Michigan and are thinking of buying in San Miguel de Allende you might pay more for something comparable in size - thankfully there is no comparing the climate).
In one of the articles, Tales of buying property south of the border, Pender has two Americans discussing their experience buying property in Mexico, one man bought coastal property in Baja with the other couple purchasing in San Miguel de Allende. Both stories were positive, the common theme being the difficulties encountered, paritcularly navigating Mexican laws and customs.
We'll discuss her other article in a future post.
