Capital Gains and Closing Costs for Sellers of Property in Mexico.

Capital Gains and Closing Costs for Sellers of Property in Mexico.

Part I

Capital Gains Tax Overview for Selling your home in Mexico

One of the habits of highly effective people is to begin with the ending in mind. As you are buying an investment property Riviera Maya, think first of your exit strategy, for the time when you sell your Mexico vacation property.

As a brief synopsis, the tax laws change frequently in Mexico and the capital gains tax situation does also, especially as Mexico is catching up to the rest of the world.

Mexico government applies ISR, “impuestos sobre rentas”, capital gains taxes, differently when selling a primary residence in Mexico and selling a vacation home in Mexico.

Mexico and Canada and United States have a tax treaty and recognize taxes paid in each others’ countries so you are not double taxed.

In very basic format, a residence that is deemed a primary residence can be sold exempt of ISR, (capital gains taxes), if certain conditions apply. This is advice can be further clarified by a public notario/lawyer to make your selling process smooth and understandable. We at Living Riviera Maya Real Estate Services will make sure you get this consultation.

If selling a home that is not your permanent residence, there are other tax applications for selling a second home in Mexico. When selling Playa del Carmen vacation real estate, capital gains is tax 30%. It is calculated by the difference between the price on the current title of the property and new sale price that will be declared on the new title.

There are some ways to mitigate this, however It is not the purpose of this website to give detailed tax advice. As part of listing our service I will arrange for consultations, in which you can discuss various tax options with a couple of good lawyers/Public Notarios.

Ultimately when selling a property in Mexico, it is the joint responsibility of the owner and Public Notario/lawyer to pay capital gains tax to the Mexican government.

Public Notarios are the ultimate authority on ISR (capital gains taxes) and transfer of title when you list and sell your home in Mexico.

Part II

Seller Closing Costs When Selling a Property in Mexico A Public Notario, who has the ultimate authority of land title transfers in Mexico and all things related this, will give you a proposal a budget for what it will cost you to sell you home in Mexico.

Over and above the ISR (capital gains taxes) previously discussed, there are several documents a seller has to provide for a property to be ready to transfer to a new owner. These are to ensure from the state and municipality and Title Registry that there are no debts and liens on the property.

These permits and costs are the responsibility of the current titleholder not the buyer. Below is a brief synopsis of expenses that a seller covers when selling a home in Mexico.

The owners' expenses for selling a house or condo in Mexico begins with knowing what value is being declared on sales contract. We can see the costs of various forms a seller must provide before a property can be sold and clear title transferred to new owners, when do a sample of seller’s closings expenses on a property with declared value of:

2,900,000 pesos (245,000 usd)

• Constancia no adeudo predial200 mxn (Mol)** =17 usd
• Constancia no aduedo obra publica estatal210 mxn ( Mol)=18 usd
• Constancia no adeudo obra publica municipal*6000 mxn (Mol) = 500 usd

*(=equal one year property taxes, so this varies with every property)

• Cedula Catastral800 mxn ( Mol)= 70 usd
• Carta no adeudo Agua80 mxn ( Mol)= 5 usd
• Certificado libertad gravemen300 mxn ( Mol) = 25 usd
• Lawyer fees=400-1200 usd (Mol)

Closing costs for seller on property $245,000 usd is approximately 1,835.00 usd including lawyer fees.

Your notario will give a budget for exact closing costs in advance so there are no surprises. We will make sure that you received a consultation for this.

*Permit costs vary depending on Municipality in which property is located and which notario is used to close.

**( Mol = more or less)

Marketing your Riviera Maya and Playa del Carmen Property for Sale: 1)  Consider the Price of your Real Estate for sale Riviera Maya. NATURALLY, EVERYONE WANTS TO GET THE BEST PRICE POSSIBLE for the sale of their Playa del Carmen condo or home. Be careful though to understand the REALITY of what your property can sell for, after consulting with your agent. What you think it is worth and what it will sell for can often be two completely diffferent amounts. If you start out with a high sales price, too high for recent activity, then have to drop it later -- your house becomes "old news". It will be difficult to recapture that new-to-market frenzy of initial interest you might have had with a more realistic price. As a result, your house could take longer to sell. Much longer. This could mean lost opportunity cost of money. The price of your home for sale in Playa del Carmen or Playacar, Riviera Maya is determined by several factors such as recent known sales, the amount of real estate for sale in Playa del Carmen, and how rapidly you want to sell.

Mortgages in Mexico for Foreigners- Living Riviera Maya Real Estate explains it to you

Mortgages in Mexico for Foreigners

Can You Financing your Mexico real estate purchase with a bank loan in Mexico? Until very recently,mortgages in Mexico were available for foreigners. Sadly until further notice the banks have stopped the usd based loan for foreigners and are not taking any more applications. Bancomer ( Compass Bank in US) and Scotiabank were the two major lenders in usd for properties in Mexico for foreigners. IN Jan 2012 Bancomer stopped their program and in April 2012 Scotiabank stopped taking new applications also. We are told that they will resume some time in the near future. Stay tuned.  At this point in time there are limited sources of loans such as peso based bank loans, or private fund financing. Some owners will offer short term financing to buy real estate Playa del Carmen. Just ask me for options. However mainly be thinking about how much cash you have to buy a Playa del Carmen property and focus on that level, is my recommendation. As soon as something changes for mortgages in Mexico I will post here on this website and also on my facebook page https://www.facebook.livingrivieramayarealestate When bank mortgages for property in Mexico for foreigners was available some time starting around 2007, it gave many people more options. Before that, the ability to get a loan to buy a property in Mexico was practically unheard of.  This was a barrier to buying Riviera Maya real estate, for most people. Foreigners who bought a Playa del Carmen condo or beachfront property Riviera Maya, always purchased Mexico real estate using assets and equity from their home country. Now it is that way once again. And it is a very good way to buy Playa del Carmen Mexico. It gives a realistic purchase price and a realistic cash return on investment.  When lending was available it made it possible and easy for Canadians, Americans and British Citizens to buy a  property such as condo in Riviera Maya Mexico with a loan from a Mexican Bank. The mortgage for Mexico real estate is originated here in Mexico. Your real estate in Mexico is used as collateral for the loan.  This means your assets in your home country are not used to buy Playa del Carmen real estate. Mortgages in Mexico follow the same basic format as a loan from a bank in USA or Canada. There are some variations depending on which bank makes the loan for buying real estate in Riviera Maya. Once a Playa del Carmen condo or beachfront home Riviera Maya is identified, and once you know you want to buy real estate Playa del Carmen here is how it worked when loans were available, and will likely be once they are available again: ·      Buyer gets preapproved for loan based on income and credit score ·      Minimum Fico score required:  649 ·      Loans are fixed in USD for Canadian and US citizens; income in USA or Canada ·      Mininum 25% down is required for a maximum loan to value of 75% ·      Loan values of 100,000 usd or more ·      Terms of 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 year terms available. ·      Fixed rates available or adjustable rates for your mortgage in Mexico ·      Best loan rates ever in the history of Mexico available ·      Rates for Mortgage in Mexico can range from 5.50 percent to 9% ·      Cash Refinance mortgages are available also ·      Buyer pays closing costs of approximately 6% ·      Usually a loan is closed in 45-60 days. ·      Mortgages in Mexico were available from Major Mexican banks connected with Canadian or USA reputable banks  ·      Work directly with the bank for your mortgage in Mexico, or use one of our reputable Mortgage broker to shop the  best prices and terms for you. ·      Just contact me for more information. I will put you in touch with the private source or an owner direct for your mortgage in Mexico.

A HELPING HAND TO REAL ESTATE FOREIGN INVESTORS IN MEXICO

The Mexican laws permit foreigners to acquire the rights to use, enjoy and avail, real estate located in the Coastal and border area of México, through a trust contract (fideicomiso) with a bank. It is the only legal instrument and the most advantageous available, foreigners can acquire land in México for touristic or industrial purposes, having the same rights and obligations that a full ownership property gives.

WHAT IS A TRUSTEE?

In México, there is a Bank, which is authorized to open fiduciary accounts and conduct trust operations. The Trustee holds legal title to the real estate property during the term of the trust contract, and is also empowered with rights and powers necessary to achieve the objectives to the contractual agreement creating the Trust.

WHAT ARE THE CHARACTERISTICS OF A TRUST CONTRACT?

In the trust Deed, the present owner of the land would appear as the settler or Trustor (fideicomitente) and would thereby deliver title of the real estate to the Trustee (the bank), who would hold the property during the term of the Trust for 50 years. Just to be clear, the title of the property is FOR EVER, as long as you want to own the property, until sold. It is the bank trust that renews every 50 years. It is a simple act of bank administration to renew the trust and the the property is not in jeopardy.

The Buyer (you), appears as the beneficiary (fideicomisario) of the trust. The legal effects of the trust contract is that the Trustee will keep temporary ownership of the real estate, in so doing it complies with the laws (article 27 of the Mexican Constitution) that prohibit foreigners from acquiring full ownership of the real estate located 50 kilometers wide along the coastlines and 100 kilometers wide along the border areas of México. This belt of Land is so called "The Restricted Zone".

While as foreigners you cannot record title to land in the "Restricted Zone", you can own the Beneficial interest to the Trust contract. It is, in a way, like owning 100 per cent of the shares of a corporation. It gives you the buyer all the rights and responsibilities of ownership.

WHAT REQUIREMENTS ARE NECESSARY?

You or the seller must provide to the bank the following information:

• A) A copy of the real estate title or deed indicating the exact surface area and boundaries.
• B) A copy of a draft of the property.
• C) The name (s) of the beneficiary (ies), nationality, address and phone number.
• D) The agreed purchase price.

Upon receiving the information and documents, the bank shall proceed to apply at the foreign affairs ministry, for the Trust Permit; once obtained at the Bank, we shall proceed to execute and legalize the Trust Contract before a notary public. Notaries in México have far greater legal competence than those in the United States. The notary public is an attorney at law, who is authorized by the Goverment to give final formality to the title transfer process in his protocol Book. The resulting document taken from his protocol book is registered at the public registry of the properties, and it will give evidence of the title in the name of the buyer.

WHAT RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS DOES THE BENEFICIARY ASSUME UPON THE CELEBRATION OF THE TRUST CONTRACT

As the Trust Beneficiary, you will have the use and possesion of the property, that is, you may live on the land, live in the condo or house, build, make alterations, and improvements. You may have the right to mortgage the real estate, rent it or sell it or transfer the property to your beneficial interest to another person or corporation.

If you sell the property to another foreigner, you may assign your beneficial interest to the new purchaser. This assignment of rights must be formalized before a Méxican notary public, prior to the payment of the federal and local taxes and fees that arise from the transfer of beneficial rights.

You will have the obligation to pay the duties on land, i.e.: Annual property tax, condominium, maintenance fees, water, electricity, annual Trustee fee, ETC.

WHAT FEES WILL THE TRUSTEE CHARGE FOR THIS TYPE OF TRUST CONTRACT?

The fees which the Trust Division of Bancomer S.A., charges for this type of Trust are:

• A) As a Trustee acceptance charge approximately 1500 $ USD, payable once upon the signing of the Trust Contract.
• B) For the handling and servicing of the Trust, approximately $600.00 USD a year, payable in advance. This fee will be increased by the Trustee each two years, according to the U.S.A. inflation rate.

Every year, on the anniversary date of the Trust, the Bank shall mail to your address the bill of the annual fee for keeping the property in Trust.

WHAT OTHER EXPENSES MUST THE BENEFICIARY MEET UPON THE CELEBRATION OF THE TRUST DEED?

You must pay out the fees, taxes and expenses that arise from the purchase as well as the formalization of the Trust deed before a Méxican notary public.

Also, you will pay the cost of the permit that must be obtained from the foreign affairs ministry to acquire the property in Trust, and the recording of the Trust deed at the National Registry of Foreign Investments.

WHAT HAPPENS IF THE BENEFICIARY SHOULD DIE DURING THE LEGAL PERIOD OF THE TRUST CONTRACT?

The Beneficiary has the right to appoint substitute Beneficiary (ies) who will recieve all the rights and obligations that arise from the Trust contract, if the Beneficiary dies during the life of the Trust.

With this designation of subtitute Beneficiaries, your heirds will not need to follow any probate proceeding before the Méxican courts, that could take time and attorneys fees. They would only have to give notice to the bank of the deceased and show the death certificate and their identifications. Then, the bank will give instructions to a notary public as to the proper protocol of the documents and with the resulting deed register them as the new owners (Beneficiaries) of the Trust property.

WHAT WILL HAPPEN AT THE EXPIRATION OF THE TRUST CONTRACT?

On December 27, 1993 a presidential decree was issued establishing the new Foreign Investment Law. According to article 13 of this Law, the foreign affairs Ministry shall allow the renewall of the Trust over the "Restricted Zone" upon the expiration of their term.

Furthermore, the foreign affairs ministry may authorize a new Trust over real estate transfered from one Trust to another for a period up to 50 years when the Beneficiaries of the original and the new Trust are different.

Searching on line, on your own can be confusing time consuming and may show you inaccurate information. Living Riviera Maya Real Estate and Judi Shaw can streamline the process for you. Google searching may not provide you with the results you’re looking for. Why? Because, not all listings in Riviera Maya will be easily available to the public.

Here are some Riviera Maya property shopping tips and facts for buyers: You won’t find a true Playa del Carmen MLS or MLS Riviera Maya in the way you are accustomed to in the USA or Canada. A Google search for “MLS for Riviera Maya” or “MLS Playa Del Carmen” will bring you private real estate websites who have simply purchased the name “MLS Riviera Maya” and use it as a marketing name. It is not a website governed by an impartial body, as in the United States and Canada. All real estate agents in the Playa Del Carmen and Riviera Maya area market their own sites online, using common terms that may be official in other places. You won’t find a true ‘official’ MLS website in our area Mexico. Companies with the name “MLS Riviera Maya” and MLS sites from other Mexico City names have their own MLS listings. ****We work with all other agencies for you, ensuring you see all listings available. This saves you time, money, and frustration, for a more effective and efficient process. As a buyer, this costs you nothing as the seller pays the commission.

Testimonials for Judi Shaw, your Canadian Realtor on the Mayan Riviera, Mexico

Clients and Colleagues Share Testimonials for buying Real Estate in Playa del Carmen

Marcel and Stella from British Columbia say:

"My wife and I decided to purchase a condo on the beautiful Island of Cozumel. Buying a property can be stressful enough but when it comes to making an investment in another country, the stakes get much higher. Judi relieved much of this added stress by explaining the complete process in detail so we would not encounter anything we were not ready for. She was patient and took the time to suggest various condos that she felt would fulfill our needs. Fortunately we found the gem we were looking for. From there the process was taken care of and Judi made sure that we were protected and that nothing was omitted.
If you are looking to purchase a property around Judi’s area, I would consider you call her. It will be the first best decision you will make."

Rich A from Boca Raton says:

"I’m an investor and have worked with Judi Shaw on many multi-million dollar deals down in Mexico. I must say that Judi has always been the most knowledgeable agent and also displays the utmost professionalism. Judi is truly the best real estate agent that I’ve ever worked with and I’ve had a wonderful experience on all the deals she has put together for me."

Kevin G from Toronto, Canada says:

"Dear Judy, I wanted to take a moment to express my deepest appreciation for your support and efforts this past month in my search for a property in the Mayan Riviera. As you well know trying to find a new property that fits your needs in another country can be difficult. Trusting an Agent you have never met before in another country also has its risks given the high degree of ethical and legal conditions one needs to fully understand in an unfamiliar market.

I cannot thank you enough for being my eyes and ears in our search and negotiations, and caring to understand what I needed not just what I wanted. You have been honourable in fully disclosing my financial and legal risks and guiding me to an exceptional lawyer who has protected my legal interests and also treated this transaction as if it were his own. Thank you for caring for my best interests, your exceptional knowledge of the market and the properties in the area, your patience, diligence and personal efforts to help me through this property search. Your professionalism and partnership is beyond reproach.

I will recommend you to anyone looking for property in your market. Together we have been a great team and I feel I have found a new friend and someone that always has my back, Thank you  Judi !

Elisa and Mike From Seattle, WA say:

"We are first time vacation home buyers and new to purchasing property in Mexico. Judi made the process easy every step of the way by ensuring we had all the information, contacts, help and support so we could find the best place to suite our needs.

It’s where I learned the extreme sport of kiteboarding. That’s how I discovered what Tulum is all about.

Scooting along the crystalline blue waters of the Mexican Caribbean my kite powered by wind and warmth, bouncing along the rhythmic waves of the ocean, looking back toward shore at the swayin palm trees and white soft cool sand, only a few peeps walking the beaches- Tulum and kiteboarding are heaven on earth. Its what made me fall in love with the area. Once an unorganized and undiscovered territory of Mexico and largely unappreciated until recently, in the past 5-10 years Tulum has become the hot bed of activity. It is now its own new municipality. Tulum real estate and development are attracting investors from around the world.

I love Tulum and why I bought real estate in Tulum. I believe in Tulum as a gathering place for interesting people and experiences. With the New Tulum international airport, unspoiled Tulum beaches, a profitable Tulum real estate wave, and hip, pulsating beach clubs, yummy Mexican food, Italian fusion atmosphere, Tulum is the boom. Pristine, protected, undeveloped, deep long white sand beaches define the Sian Kaan Biosphere and the Boca Paila fishing lodge, famous for its bone fishing in the worlds largest salt water lagoon, also home to Manatees and monkeys. Eco hotels, eco lots, unplug, get away from it all, this is what the Tulum lifestyle is all about.

Jungle adventures in Tulum, Cenote diving, Mayan ruins of Tulum on the beach, all of this speak of its ancient and magical roots. It’s a story waiting to be experienced.
