1. Find a Property

- Browse listings and choose the property that fits your needs—whether it's a pre-sale (under construction) or a re-sale (already built).

2. Make an Offer or Reserve

- Pre-sale: To reserve the property, developers typically require a deposit (around $5,000 USD). Once reserved, you can start the loan or payment process.

- Re-sale: Make an offer on the property. Once accepted, the due diligence process begins.

3. Due Diligence

- A lawyer will assist in checking the property’s legal status, ensuring that it has all the proper documentation (clear title, no outstanding debts, etc.). This is a crucial step and involves a legal fee, plus closing costs (typically 7-8% of the property price).

4. Payment Plan

- Pre-sale properties usually come with a payment scheme, like 30% down, 50% during construction, and 20% upon completion.

- For re-sale, you can use personal funds, a mortgage loan, or a private loan to pay for the property.

5. Financing Options

- Mortgage loans: Available for foreigners, typically requiring a 30% down payment, with interest rates between 9-15% and terms of 10-20 years. A credit score of 680+ is usually required.

- Private loans: Can be used as personal or business lines of credit.

- Owner financing: Rare, but some sellers may offer direct financing without involving banks.

6. Sign Purchase Agreements

- Once all the terms are agreed upon, a promissory contract is signed, and you proceed with payments based on the schedule agreed.

7. Notarization and Closing

- A notary public (notario) oversees the final transaction, ensuring that all documents are in order. Closing costs include notary fees, taxes, and legal fees.

8. Get Title and Register the Property

- After the final payment is made, the property is registered under your name, and you receive the property title.

9. Move In or Rent Out

- Whether you plan to live in your new home or use it as an investment property, Tulum offers great potential for returns, especially with short-term rentals like Airbnb.

Throughout the process, working with a reliable real estate advisor and lawyer is key to navigating local laws and regulations.
