Buying property in Mexico—especially in Baja California’s restricted zones like Rosarito or San Felipe—is an exciting opportunity. But before you get too far along in the purchase process, it’s critical to remember one thing: the seller and the real estate agent are not your legal representatives.
At Galarza Legal, we protect foreign buyers by reviewing the property’s legal status, verifying ownership, and ensuring the transaction is secure. Hiring your own attorney is the best investment you can make when buying property in Mexico.
Why You Shouldn’t Rely Solely on the Seller or Agent
- Conflict of Interest – The seller wants to close the deal quickly, and the real estate agent earns a commission when the property sells. Their priority is the sale—not your long-term protection.
- Unverified Ownership – Without legal due diligence, you could unknowingly buy property from someone who doesn’t legally own it.
- Hidden Liens or Debts – Some properties have unpaid taxes, mortgages, or liens that transfer to the buyer if not resolved before purchase.
- Improper Title or Documentation – Incomplete or inaccurate paperwork can leave your ownership rights at risk.
The Importance of a Legal Review
When you hire Galarza Legal before signing or paying, we:
- Conduct a full title search to confirm ownership and legal status.
- Verify the property’s history to ensure no hidden disputes or debts exist.
- Review all contracts, fideicomisos (trusts), or corporate structures tied to the property.
- Confirm the transaction complies with Mexican property and foreign ownership laws.
