Can a foreigner buy property in Tecate?
Tecate lies inside Mexico's restricted zone (within 50 km of the coast or 100 km of a border). A foreign buyer there normally holds the property through a bank trust, a fideicomiso, under a permit from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (SRE). The trust runs up to 50 years and can be extended (Constitution art. 27; Foreign Investment Law arts. 11 and 13). A notario público examines the title and authorizes the deed.
What closing costs should I expect?
As a rough guide, a buyer's closing costs typically run 4% to 8% of the price (notary, acquisition tax, registration and other items). On the median house in Tecate that would be about US$7,900 to US$16,000 (MX$146,000 to MX$292,000). If you buy through a fideicomiso, the bank quotes its set-up cost and annual fee separately. This is a typical range, not a quote; ask your notario for the itemized figures.

How these numbers are made
Prices are agencies' asking prices, converted to pesos at an indicative MX$18.50 per US$1. We exclude prices outside plausible bands for each type (rentals, errors and inflated feed values); the median and quartiles are resistant to those cases. These are not appraisals and not legal or tax advice; confirm everything with your notario público.
