Land Titles / Ownership In Mexico

once and for all. It is illegal to buy ejido land in Mexico. It is even illegal for Mexicans to buy it although many do,they then hold the land illegally and can be challenged by the Mesa Directiva.If you hold land in Mexico which does not have escituras[title] you are contravening the law and can have that land siezed by the ejido.All legal land transactions have to go through a Notary, he determines if the title is legal, All legal titles are in the zihua registry office, Many people,foreigners and nationals,think they own ejido land and build on it and hold it for years.When the land becomes more valuable it is legally seized.Never buy land anywhere in the World without a legal title.All the land seizures that have happened.Punta Banda, tulum, etc. were seizures of land which had been held without title[escrituras] When you look at a piece of land for sale, ask for a copy of the escrituras.If they don't have them, don't buy it! Fideo comiso is another question but also easy to resolve. Simply talk to a lawyer,notaries have them on staff or you can use your own,I don't care if you have held a piece of ejido land for 20 years and built a house that land is not yours and can be legally seized.It is the buyer's fault if he enters into an illegal transaction.
