Welcome to Punta
Chivato, Baja California Sur, Mexico. If you are interested in
purchasing property, a lot, a beautiful home, or just a little piece
of Paradise, you are at the right destination. Many large
parcels for development or investment are also available at Punta
Chivato.
Miles of sand beaches around
to the southwest of Punta Chivato invite shelling while estuaries,
tide pools and rocky reefs teeming with the vivid colors of tropical
fish beg beachcombers and divers alike to come and explore the beauty
beneath.
The first
residential development at Punta Chivato was near the hotel. These
homes are in the Punta Chivato
Homeowners Association.
Just a few years ago development
began along the beach southwest of the runway, with many more owners
and different concerns about development, water, trash, and so on.
These owners have formed the Playa Santa Ines Residents Association.
The Punta Chivato Yacht Club
began as a group of boating, fishing and water sports enthusiasts
interested in dock maintenance and boating safety, and now has more
than 150 members. The Chivato Pilots group has concerns about the
airport that is of limited interest to others.
Most of the owners and residents
of the Chivato area are involved in several of these groups.
A graded airstrip attracts private planes but
aviation fuel is not available on a regular basis. The turn-off to
Punta Chivato is at Kilometer 156 off Highway 1 between Santa Rosalia
and Mulegé, then 20 kilometers by graded road to the Point.
There is a small tienda (mini-store) at the west side of the Hotel
(Hotel Posada de las Flores Punta Chivato). Serious shopping has
to be done in Mulegé or Santa Rosalia. |

Answers To Frequently Asked Questions
About Buying Property in Mexico
|
| Are foreigners permitted to acquire property in
Punta Chivato, Baja California Sur, Mexico? |
| Yes, foreigners may acquire property in
Punta Chivato, Baja California Sur, Mexico. However, if the property lies within a "restricted zone" such as along borders or in coastal areas, it must be purchased via a legal instrument called a
"fidei comiso" or, bank trust. This trust gives you, the beneficiary of the trust, the same rights and obligations as full ownership. |
| How do I establish a
fidei comiso? |
| A fidei comiso must be established and recorded by a
"notario" or, notary public. Your real estate agent should be able to recommend a notario to establish the trust as well as a bank to administer it. Notarios and banks charge competitive fees for their services and the fees depend partly upon the stated value of the property. Most real estate agents work with one notario who works with one bank but are, in fact, able to work with those that you choose. Check out your options and get estimates on fees from a few different notarios and banks. |
| What information must I provide in order to establish a fidei
comiso? |
| You'll need to provide basic information such as name, address and phone number in the US (or other country of origin), occupation and nationality. If married, the same information will be required of your spouse. You'll need to provide a copy of your passport and tourist visa. The name, nationality, address and phone number of any secondary beneficiary to the trust will also be required.
This trust can be established for up to 50 years and can be automatically renewed
for another 50 years. During this time, you have all the rights of direct ownership
including selling or leasing the property. In addition, it becomes part your estate
and can be passed on to your heirs, without inheritance tax.
|
|
How much does a fidei comiso cost to establish? |
| Again, costs vary from notario to notario and from bank to bank. Your real estate agent should help you obtain written estimates from notarios and banks regarding the fees for the establishment and yearly maintenance of the
fidei comiso. |
|
How do I find a reliable real estate agent who will protect my interests? |
| Ask lots of questions and interview several different agents and/or brokers. Business operates at a slower pace in Mexico so try not to be in too much of a hurry but you can insist that your agent communicate with you regularly and keep you posted during every step of acquiring a property. Real estate agents will tell you that you don't need a lawyer involved in real estate transactions. This is technically true and your real estate agent should be able to translate negotiations for you. However, if you feel more comfortable that your interests, not the interests of the seller, will be protected by hiring your own lawyer then, by all means, do so. Remember, the real estate agent is paid by the seller, not the buyer. There are English-speaking lawyers on the island knowledgeable in real estate transactions. |
|
Can I obtain a listing of homes and
property currently on the market? |
A reputable agent should make a list available to you. It's best to be specific about a price range when requesting listings but be flexible too as you may find spending a little bit more will get you a lot more in the long run.
|
|
What if I want to buy a home now but I don't plan to live in it until I retire? |
| There are plenty of property management companies
in Baja who can care for your property in your absence. Again, ask lots of questions and interview several companies. Find out exactly how your home will be maintained and all the fees involved. Property managers should be able to put your home into their vacation rental pool if you desire. Additional fees will be involved in the rental of your home and you should receive a written contract which clearly states all fees or commissions that you are expected to pay as well as outlines how your home will be cared for. The property manager should also provide you with detailed monthly statements of your income and expenses along with original receipts. |
|
So where do I start? |
| One, don't be in a hurry. Conduct your interviews of real estate agents and/or brokers until you feel comfortable with one - or more. Remember, you don't have to depend on just one agent. Most agents have their own listings and some do not share theirs with others so use all the available resources. Two, talk to friends and acquaintances living
in Baja. Make a point to get to know them and let them get to know you. "Locals" often know of properties for sale which are not listed with any realtor. Later, you can obtain a lawyer to be involved in negotiations and in supervising the purchase transaction. And three, be prepared to make more than one trip to
Baja to find that perfect home. Try to be prepared to make a spur of the moment trip to
Baja should your agent call you with a new listing that fits your needs and price range. |
