Start with the property
Due diligence should confirm title, liens, zoning, outstanding charges, possession, and consistency among the documents, physical reality, and public record. A purchase promise does not replace that review.
Structure depends on location and purpose
The buyer’s nationality, the property’s location, and its intended use affect the acquisition structure. A Mexican bank trust may be required in certain cases. If the acquisition is tied to a company or investment, corporate and tax obligations should also be reviewed.
Closing requires coordination
The notary, bank, parties, advisers, and registry operate on different timelines. A closing-condition list makes clear which document is missing, who must deliver it, and when funds can safely be released.
