Frequently Asked Questions
About Buying in Mexico
What are the requirements for a foreigner to rent long-term in Mexico?
Foreigners typically need a valid passport, proof of income, and an Aval (a local property guarantor) to secure a 6-to-12-month lease. If you do not have an Aval, landlords usually accept a double security deposit or the cost of a legal mediation agreement (Convenio de Transacción) to finalize the contract securely.
Are utilities included in long-term rentals in the Riviera Maya and Mérida?
No, electricity (CFE) and high-speed internet are usually paid separately by the tenant in long-term residential contracts. HOA fees (mantenimiento) and municipal water are often included in the monthly rent, but we ensure this is explicitly verified in your lease agreement before signing.
Are long-term rentals in the Riviera Maya and Mérida pet-friendly?
Yes, many long-term rental properties are pet-friendly, although policies vary by landlord and property. Some landlords may require an additional pet deposit or have restrictions on the number, size, or type of pets. If you’re relocating internationally with a pet, we also recommend checking Mexico’s current entry requirements before traveling.
How much is a typical security deposit for a long-term rental in Mexico?
Security deposits are commonly equivalent to one month’s rent, although requirements vary by landlord and property. Tenants without a local guarantor may be asked for additional security, a legal rental policy, or other guarantees. Before signing, we confirm the deposit, contract costs, and move-in requirements so you know the full amount required upfront.
Do I need temporary residency to rent a home in Mexico?
Temporary residency is generally not required simply to sign a long-term residential lease in Mexico. Foreign tenants may be able to rent using a valid passport and documentation of their legal stay in Mexico, subject to the landlord’s requirements. For longer-term relocation, temporary or permanent residency can make certain administrative processes easier.
Do you help with the full relocation process to Mexico?
Yes. We support clients beyond simply finding a property. Our relocation assistance can include neighborhood guidance, long-term rental or property search, and connections to trusted independent professionals for immigration, legal services, healthcare, and other relocation needs.
