What should I know about buying real estate in Mexico?
The buying process is very similar to that in the U.S. or Canada, and the home-buying experience with DMRE is effortless. Once you find a perfect home for you, we negotiate a purchase with the seller using a format very similar to one in the U.S. You pay a refundable earnest money deposit, and we have the home inspected, checked out legally, review all ownership documents, and ensure all property information is correct during the due diligence period. Once you are satisfied, you make your down payment and the remainder of the purchase price at closing.
During the closing process, we must work with the government and the bank for the title; we estimate that closing will take 3 to 4 months. Our Real Estate team will guide you throughout this process to guarantee the certainty of your investment.
Some significant differences include:Whether you purchase real estate in the U.S. or Mexico, Del Mar Real Estate recommends Title Insurance for every property you buy. We insure our cars, homes, and health — it is just as necessary to guarantee one of your most significant investments: your property. Title Insurance is available for properties in Mexico purchased by U.S., Canadian, and Mexican citizens.
We believe that each purchase at Del Mar begins a new chapter in your life in our idyllic setting. Our elite agents excel at simplifying the entire process, ensuring you buy your property with ease and peace of mind. Our team of top real estate agents is highlyy experienced in helping clients successfully close their real estate transactions, ensuring every detail is handled to achieve a smoot,d successful closing.
Not only do we guide you through purchasing prime real estate in Baja California Sur with the most informed and knowledgeable real estate professionals, but you will also receive the VIP treatment you deserve with our multi-faceted approach as a Del Mar owner.

What do I need to know about taxes and visas for Mexico?
You will pay two taxes when you buy a home in Mexico. The first is the Acquisition Tax (ISABI), 3% of the total registered purchase price. Typically, notaries calculate the tax at 3.1% to account for fluctuations in the peso-to-dollar exchange rate. This tax is paid upon purchase and becomes part of your Cost Basis, making it fully deductible if you decide to sell your property.
The second tax is Property Tax (PREDIAL), which is very low in Mexico. Property Tax is not based on the purchase price; it is based on the property tax value assigned to the area in which the property is located and the size of the property.
If you are selling your home, the Notary will calculate the Seller’s capital gains tax based on the purchase price, in Mexican Pesos, at the time of acquisition. This information is indicated on the title deed. The Notary then adds to the Seller’s original purchase price the cost of any construction or remodel (original facturas/receipts required) and the closing costs the Seller paid at the time of purchase. The resultant cost basis is determined after applying annual inflationary credit and construction depreciation factors. The Notary then determines the capital gains tax (ISR) by subtracting the cost basis and the sale’s commission from the sale price to obtain the ‘gain,’ which is taxed at 35%.
Every person entering Mexico must obtain a tourist visa for up to 180 days, which does not include permission to work. Immigration officials provide this visa upon arrival in Mexico. Suppose people wish to stay or live indefinitely in Mexico for periods longer than six months, whether or not they have acquired property. In that case, they must apply for a visa at the Mexican consulate in their home country. This is typically a simple process when work is not involved. Both permanent and temporary resident visas are available, with the latter being the easiest to obtain. To purchase property, the buyer must have legal immigration status in Mexico.

Our communities have strict architectural guidelines and bylaws to enhance your use and enjoyment of the property and protect the integrity of the neighborhood and the value of your asset. The Homeowners Association of our communities ensures that all collective rights and interests of homeowners are respected and preserved. Their core principles are to provide services to residents and homeowners, protect property values, and meet homeowners’ established expectations.
They pay significant attention to maintaining the appearance standards of the properties and common areas, abiding by and reinforcing regulations and guidelines, and upholding community standards. The HOA supports stable property values for all homeowners.
One of the most incredible reasons to buy homes for sale in Del Mar is the spectacular views!
