Where is Janey1948?
Is the Desertbull going to Mulege?
Can he check out the action?
Is this normal for leases in Mexico?
Does the landlord raise the rents after the rent is paid?
I thought there was a law "no guns in Mexico"
Why does this guy get to shoot rifles at his place scaring the residents?
Is there another resident with the guts to stand up to this guy?
Is this all true?

If you want to stand up to him, don't use this nonsense as ammo. Most, if not all Mexicans have guns. They don't have the machine type but, they have guns.
The blown-out-of-proportatin law is for us. Not Nationals.

These aren't leases. More like a handshake agreement you would have with a stranger to put your trailer on his back 40. Set up as monthly rentals but most residents pay a year in advance. He doesn't even own the property where the palapas are built as they're in the federal zone. I doubt he pays taxes on the income. I doubt there are written rental agreements...probably just gives a receipt...maybe not.

Normal leases are enforceable by both parties. They are in writing, signed and recorded.



Does the landlord raise the rents after the rent is paid?

Typically there are legal clauses written into most Mexican lease agreements that allow for increases. Again...these are legal leases signed by both parties. At Naranjos he can probably raise fees anytime he wants. You have the option to pay...or leave. :-)


I thought there was a law "no guns in Mexico"

For tourists it's not allowed. Mexican citizens can own guns. So can foreign residents. Permits are required.


Why does this guy get to shoot rifles at his place scaring the residents?

'Cause it's his place. If you don't like it you can always leave.


Is there another resident with the guts to stand up to this guy?

Look...Most of the residents put up with this guy because they want to be there. Most have little invested and are only there 5 months out of a year. The rents are cheap and if need be, they can pick up and head down the road at any time.


I would add that because of the damage done by the last storm most of my friends who have winter homes there expected there would be increases. They didn't mind. To them, it's truly paradise. Worth every penny.

Now, do they have FM3's or just tourist visas?
Could he steal all their stuff and burn it as soon as they leave?
Sure could.
What do these renters do leave their brain at the border?

There are a lot of good landlords out there! As was just reported. Tenants also very in there dealings with the landlords. I know here the contracts we had with our landlord he could refuse to renew the lease but had to pay for any improvements made before he could lease/sell it to another person.
So KAT54, before you make such a damning statement maybe you should know a little more of how things work in honest/many situations. And there are a lot of them! Still one should really not make improvements they can't afford to leave behind on a lease or rental agreements.

I doubt you ever 'owned' anything. In Mexico, as the world over, "rights" aren't conveyed by handshake.

Dave, It's a very long story..we had paperwork etc. I am not a fool and this was not my first bbq....the papers were as worthless as the mans word. Oh, we could have continued to spend large $$ on more worthless and corrupt attorneys,and years of "amparos" and still not have a home......ARRRRRRRRRG

Falsification of documents is fraud


A serious offence. A good attorney presenting evidence to a sympathetic judge who would issue a demanda. The guy either pays up or goes directly to jail.

I've done it...Works. ;)

This ain't a lawsuit. It's a criminal complaint. If issued the defendant has to disprove their guilt. :biggrin:

Mulege


Ditto, Mike. I guess these nay sayers have not spent any time in Mulege. Stay where you are...we do not need any more people in Mulege.
