Comprar mediante una empresa o una cuenta de retiro suma obligaciones en México, en tu país de origen y costos que una compra directa no tiene. Estas son las preguntas para llevar a un asesor fiscal y a un abogado que conozcan ambas jurisdicciones.</p><h2>Las tres estructuras más consultadas</h2><h3>Una empresa extranjera (por ejemplo, una LLC de Estados Unidos)</h3><p>Para adquirir fuera de la zona restringida, la ley mexicana da a las personas morales extranjeras un trato similar al de las personas físicas extranjeras: deben presentar el convenio ante la SRE antes de adquirir. La SRE pide el acta constitutiva y los poderes, apostillados o legalizados y traducidos. Si el inmueble genera ingresos, pueden surgir obligaciones fiscales y de registro en México, y el tratamiento fiscal que la LLC tenga en Estados Unidos no define cómo la tratará México.</p><h3>Una sociedad mexicana</h3><p>Una sociedad mexicana (S.A. de C.V. o S. de R.L. de C.V.) con socios extranjeros puede ser propietaria. Tiene contabilidad, declaraciones y costos anuales propios, por lo que suele considerarse para usos de negocio —rentas a escala, hospedaje o desarrollo— más que para una sola residencia personal.</p><h3>Una cuenta de retiro autodirigida (por ejemplo, una IRA)</h3><p>Algunos custodios permiten invertir en inmuebles, incluso en el extranjero. Las reglas de Estados Unidos prohíben ciertas operaciones entre la cuenta y las "personas descalificadas", que en general incluyen al titular y a su familia cercana. En la práctica, normalmente ni tú ni tu familia podrían usar la propiedad. No todos los custodios aceptan inmuebles extranjeros, y el custodio (o la entidad propiedad de la cuenta) debe poder firmar ante notario mexicano.</p><h2>Preguntas antes de decidir</h2><ol class="rsm-steps"><li><strong>¿Para qué es el inmueble?</strong> Uso personal, renta, reventa o negocio: la respuesta cambia todo lo demás.</li><li><strong>¿Quién firmará ante el notario y con qué facultades?</strong> Se requiere acreditar la existencia de la entidad y la representación, con documentos apostillados y traducidos.</li><li><strong>¿Cómo gravará México las rentas y la venta?</strong> Consulta ISR, IVA cuando aplique y ganancia en la enajenación para esa estructura.</li><li><strong>¿Cómo lo gravará tu país?</strong> Reporte de entidades y cuentas en el extranjero y posibles beneficios de tratados.</li><li><strong>¿Cuánto cuesta cada año?</strong> Contabilidad, declaraciones, agentes registrados, comisiones del custodio.</li><li><strong>¿Qué pasa en caso de fallecimiento o divorcio?</strong> Las estructuras cambian la forma de heredar.</li><li><strong>¿Cómo se sale de la estructura?</strong> Vender la empresa o sacar el inmueble tiene sus propios impuestos y trámites.</li></ol><h2>Cuándo puede bastar una compra sencilla</h2><p>Para una sola casa de uso personal, muchas personas en San Miguel de Allende compran a su nombre, presentan el convenio ante la SRE y otorgan un testamento mexicano. No es la única opción, pero es el punto de comparación para cualquier otra estructura.</p><h2>Cómo puede ayudarte RESMA</h2><p>Podemos coordinar los documentos que pedirán el notario y la parte vendedora y compartir nuestra experiencia local sobre tiempos.

Owning through a company or a retirement account adds rules in Mexico, rules in your home country, and costs that a direct purchase does not have. These are the questions to bring to a tax advisor and an attorney who know both jurisdictions before you choose.</p><h2>The three structures people ask about</h2><h3>A foreign company (for example, a US LLC)</h3><p>Mexican law treats foreign legal entities like foreign individuals when they acquire property outside the restricted zone: they file the written agreement with the SRE before acquiring. The SRE asks for the company's incorporation documents and powers, apostilled or legalized and translated. A foreign company may face additional Mexican tax and registration obligations if the property generates income, and how your home country treats the LLC for tax purposes does not determine how Mexico treats it.</p><h3>A Mexican company</h3><p>A Mexican corporation (for example, an S.A. de C.V. or S. de R.L. de C.V.) with foreign shareholders can own property. It has its own accounting, tax filings and annual costs, so it is usually considered for business uses — rentals at scale, hospitality or development — rather than a single personal residence.</p><h3>A self-directed retirement account (for example, a US IRA)</h3><p>Some custodians allow retirement accounts to invest in real estate, including abroad. US rules prohibit certain transactions between the account and "disqualified persons," which generally include the owner and close family. In practice, that means you or your family generally cannot use the property personally. Not every custodian accepts foreign real estate, and the custodian (or an entity owned by the account) must be able to sign before a Mexican notary.</p><h2>Questions to answer before you decide</h2><ol class="rsm-steps"><li><strong>What is the property for?</strong> Personal use, rental, a future sale, or a business. The answer changes everything else.</li><li><strong>Who will sign at the notary, and with what powers?</strong> Mexican notaries require proof of the entity's existence and of the signer's authority, apostilled and translated.</li><li><strong>How will Mexico tax the income and the eventual sale?</strong> Ask a Mexican tax advisor about income tax on rentals, VAT where it applies, and capital gains on sale for that structure.</li><li><strong>How will your home country tax it?</strong> Ask your home-country advisor about reporting foreign entities and accounts and about any treaty relief.</li><li><strong>What does it cost each year?</strong> Accounting, filings, registered agents, custodian fees.</li><li><strong>What happens on death or divorce?</strong> Structures change how property passes to heirs.</li><li><strong>How do you exit?</strong> Selling a company or transferring property out of it has its own taxes and steps.</li></ol><h2>When a simple purchase may be enough</h2><p>For a single home for personal use, many buyers in San Miguel de Allende simply buy in their own name, file the SRE agreement and make a Mexican will. It is not the only option, but it is the baseline every other structure should be compared to.</p><h2>How RESMA can help</h2><p>We can coordinate the documents the notary and seller will ask for and share our local experience with timelines.
