Buying a home in a foreign country is difficult enough without a pandemic going on, but my wife and I worked to find the right house in the right location. Luckily for us, Merida, Mexico is one of the safest and most amazing places in the world. This video was recorded to show you what happened during our purchase.

@Mrdisel4life 4 года назад

Some tips I'm from yucatan living in the US. Get you calculator. Ask for the price in PESOS. Ask for the payments to be in PESOS. If you ask, in some situations you can get up to 60 months at ZERO interest. If you are thinking to move to any part of Mexico in about 4-5 years, I recommend you to wait until after the new president[2024 I think) swears in. Normally Mexico has a peso devaluation almost after the new president gets in. Because of the big social spending of this president, I'm expecting a big peso devaluation when he is out. If you can have a steady income in dollars of around $1000 usd and up, you are good to go. That can cover a basic rent, food and entertainment.

@lvncsr6166 3 года назад

just found your channel! Have a gazillion questions:) I'm a single woman over 50 and am seriously considering making the move to Merida. However, I'm concerned about finding online work, a great place on or near the beach(if possible) and the tax situation. Will I have to pay taxes in Merida And the US? Thanks so much for any responses. Also, is there a population of expats in my age group there?

@AlexanderFromKC 3 года назад

I've had the tax code explained to me, but I do have to defer to professionals both here and in Mexico. The last thing I want to do is give second hand advice, especially if it's wrong. That being said, there are a TON of expats of your age as well as older and younger. If you have HBO I would suggest watching Ravi Patel's Pursuit of Happiness". Discusses the expat and retiree community both in Merida, as well as the beach communities. We loved the beach, but we were wanting to be more in the middle of the action. On top of that we were looking to buy, but the upkeep on beach properties (thank you salt water) just seemed to be too much for us. As far as online work, obviously everyone's situation is different, but my wife and I were able to work our jobs for the month completely online without issue. Visit first, and you'll fall in love! Thank you so much for watching.

@AlexanderFromKC 4 года назад

Absolutely. The bank is Banco Monex, which was sent direct by Bank of New York Mellon. As far as the interest rate, we refinanced our home and pay the interest rate based on current rates in the USA. The reason was that our understanding was that it made more sense due to high interest rates in Mexico, at least at that time. I'm glad you asked too, because I'm going to be discussing that in my next video!

@AlexanderFromKC 3 года назад

So I have to be a little careful here, because I don't want to give financial advice as an expert per se. That being said, I always go on the high side with the amount of money I hold back, and save between 30-40%. You're probably not as crazy as I am though, so I think holding back 15-20% and having a solid insurance policy would accomplish what you're looking for. I think you'd be good to go living off what you're bringing in, even withholding 20% of the total.

Hi,Alex. Your video is very informative. I am really interested to buy a property in Merida. Is there any ways to loan money from a bank in Mexico to buy a property? Thank you in advance.

@AlexanderFromKC 2 года назад

There are options, but it's incredibly difficult. In Mexico, the interest rates are much higher, and if you're a foreigner that's just now trying to buy a house there you have no accounts and no credit score. What I would suggest is contacting a real estate agent, and asking them to help you out with it. If they're not willing to help, move on to another. All of that being said, it's incredibly rare to make this happen. We ended up refinancing two of our houses in the States to make sure we didn't have to worry about going through the process there.

@AlexanderFromKC 3 года назад

Glad it was helpful! Our situation took awhile to get through some red tape, especially after all the delays with COVID. That being said, we're now into the process with a really good architect, who also functions as our general contractor. I'd say the best thing to do is be there during construction, but if you're like us and can't be, make sure they're sending pictures and keeping you up to date. Use someone reputable too.

@AlexanderFromKC 2 года назад

So insurance is something I'd consult with someone on, but if you pay your property taxes early, you get a small amount added from the city of Merida. I say this because many don't carry insurance, and although I don't know the specifics, Mexico doesn't have the same laws with regard to liability that the USA does. Last year our property taxes (before renovation) were about $40 USD.

@AlexanderFromKC 3 года назад

I'll be making several videos about the renovation once it's up-and-running, COVID has stretched the timeline just a bit! That being said, lot size is about 30 feet by 180 feet long, and the home is built wall-to-wall at times. That being said there is a small courtyard and a large outdoor area between the main house and what will be a master bedroom. As far as budget goes, we're going a little over the top with what we're doing, so I'll let you know that in the video once the renovation is done.

There are companies that will lend in Mexico, but we did not go that route. The interest rates are normally MUCH higher, and the actual process just sounded like a huge hassle. We had significant equity in our homes in the States, so we ended up refinancing our homes, and using that (and income) to pay cash for the lot and the renovation.

I love your video. But. I’m don’t like. The. Fideicomiso. Dealing with Bank. I’m Mexican. I’m know. When. You buy property is yours. Not dealing. with bank. Never again.

I completely understand and thank you for the compliment! The fideicomiso was the only way that made sense for us to purchase (as foreigners), after researching several ways. That being said, there are several other ways to make it work as well. Thanks for watching!

Hi,can you give me the realtor and architect name and telephone number going to merida in February, tks Happy New Year

Architect: www.henryponce.com/ Realtor: www.yucatanbeachandcityproperty.com/agents Our architect is Henry Ponce, and his firms contact information is on their website, above. Our Realtor was Elizabeth Rodriguez who handled the back-and-forth and one of her other agents showed the properties to us. I would recommend contacting Elizabeth first to discuss the processes and get an idea of how everything works in detail, but when you find the "boots on the ground" agent, I would highly recommend Nicholas Sanders. He was the seller's agent (agent in Elizabeth's firm) and I was really impressed with his work ethic and knowledge of the communities. Happy New Year!

I'm sorry you feel that way, but everyone has different ways of sharing their experiences. Have a good day my friend!

No videos, no evidences, súper fake. This are payed videos by local government

@AlexanderFromKC 3 года назад

@@artandkokkensandoval7746 That's completely incorrect. I live in the United States, Kansas City in fact. You can look me up as a licensed Realtor up here, and I haven't been paid by anyone or any government. In March I bought a home in Merida, and started discussing my love for the place on my personal channel, i.e., this one. I'm sorry your immediate belief was that this was fake, but you couldn't be more wrong if you tried. I wish you all the best.

10% earnest money is normal here in Mexico. I have purchased 2 houses here in Oaxaca. 1 during the Pandemic which due to the agent turned out to be somewhat of a nightmare, and another which went fairly smoothly and is still in process of a major remodel. All I can say, is screen your real estate agent as there is a lot of BS and there is no accountability. Whatsapp is the only way to communicate. And, the exchange rate can make a huge difference. I use OFX to transfer $$ and get the best rate that I can find. Have used WISE but prefer OFX.
