Home Possession without Title is Risky

  • Get Your Property Title into a Bank Trust Now

By Brian Flock

With alarming regularity in the past, foreigners buying property in Mexico ignored their basic purchasing rights. Complete, legal title to a property in Mexico should transfer at the same time that you took possession of and started paying for real property. Yet many buyers mistakenly accepted the keys to the unit, even though the deal had not properly “closed” and they did not have their name on the title, better known as a Mexican bank trust or fideicomiso.
You should place your property in a Mexican bank trust as soon as you take possession of the keys to it, regardless of whether you financed through a bank or though seller-carried loans. You always have taken title at closing in your home country. This is how virtually all lending institutions insist on doing it in Mexico.

  • 6 Tons of Trash Reclaimed from
    Tijuana River

WILDCOAST, an activist group, spearheaded by executive director Serge Dedina has focused community effort in trash pick up along the Baja Pacific coastline. All year long volunteers on both sides of the border came together to clean up beaches and restore the trails in the Tijuana River Regional Park. WILDCOAST’s goal is to inform and educate about the harmful effect of plastic trash that kills literally a million seabirds and 100,000 mammals and sea turtles each year.
The Tijuana River is the boundary line between two nations. Each year storm water flowing into the Tijuana River brings tons of trash and hazardous materials making the use of the river as a park and scenic attraction impossible, as well as dangerous pollutions for the beaches and ocean.
