Interesting site---just a little dated, I believe on the cost of obtaining the Bank Trust. They are quoting 2 to 3000 dollars--ours cost a little over 5000 and I know others are paying more.

Right now we are paying $385.00 a year for our trust, but since it can go up, I am sure it will. :lol:

Thanks for sharing the site.

To rocmoc-

It may be different in your state, but in WA, even if your house is paid in full, you do not get the title, the court house keeps it, for "safekeeping". It is EXTREMELY difficult to get the actual piece of paper that is your title.

I'm just curious, rocmoc, if you actually do have your title "IN HAND"...actually physically in your possession?

If you don't, then it's not that much different than a fidei.


Well, there is one difference.....the county courthouse doesn't charge you $600 a year for "safekeeping"!:lol:

The area around San Matis is outside the "Restricted" zone.

The figures Dianne quoted are almost exactly what I paid to set up the Fido four years ago, and also the annual fee to maintain it. I hear now they are costing around $6000.00 to set up.:wow::)

Unrestricted Zone

The Unrestricted Zone is the inland part of Baja that is over 32 miles away from the oceans, and over 64 miles away from the international borders. If you’re a U.S. citizen you don’t need to pay the fideicomiso set-up fee to purchase this land. There is not much Unrestricted Zone land here in Baja because of how narrow the penisula is.

The Unrestricted Zone allows foreigners to own land using an escritura publica just like a Mexican citizen.

Yes in AZ I do have the deed to our house but the county does keep a copy on file.

Thanks, rocmoc. And I do understand folk's old school feelings of wanting it in hand.
