8. Legal & Trust

Buying property in a foreign country can feel risky — and it should. Too many buyers rush into deals without proper verification or support, leaving themselves vulnerable to legal issues, scams, or hidden costs.

At Mystard, we built a legal-first, buyer-only model to protect your investment at every step.


⚖️ 8.1 – Why Foreigners Can Trust This Process

Foreigners can absolutely buy real estate in Mexico — legally and securely — through a government-regulated structure called the Fideicomiso.

It’s not a loophole or workaround. It’s the official path, used by thousands of international buyers each year.

Here’s how we help:

  • ✅ We work with vetted, trustworthy Notaries and closing agents

  • ✅ Our legal team verifies ownership before you place a deposit

  • ✅ We guide the creation or assignment of your Fideicomiso (bank trust)

  • ✅ You stay in control of the process from start to finish


📜 8.2 – Due Diligence Is Not Optional

When you work with Mystard, you’re never alone in the fine print.

We offer — and strongly recommend — a full Due Diligence Package, performed by our legal partner Gustavo Calderón and his team, which includes:

  • ✔️ Title and ownership verification

  • ✔️ Review of permits, plans, and certificates

  • ✔️ Search for liens, legal disputes, or debts

  • ✔️ Review of the developer or seller’s legal standing

  • ✔️ Coordination with the Notary Public for final closing

This step protects your money, your timeline, and your legal rights. No guessing. No shortcuts. Just a clean, protected deal.


🧩 8.3 – Powered by Prisma 67
