Title Insurance

If you are planning on purchasing a property in Mexico it is important to protect yourself in the event of possible legal disputes. Conflicts over ownership rights to a home or piece of land do happen, and one of the ways to insure against potential financial loss is to obtain title insurance. 

What is title insurance?

It´s an agreement of indemnity between the purchaser and the insurance company, which means that with  title insurance policy you will be protected in case there is ever any claim in title.This is could be as a consequence of many things: fraud, forgeddocuments, lost heirs and the overlaps of property.

Here´s an example. Your neighbor has title insurance and and has just completed a survey of his land. He´s determined that his property actually overlaps on to yours, and in the area of overlap you have a building- let´s say an apartment or a condo. Theoretically this building is on your neighbor´s property, which means that owns it. He is the owner of everything that is built over his property. That is a clear claim in title, and if you as the developer have title insurance it would be defended in court. 

Why is it important?

Title insurance is the only financial vehicle through which you can get your money back in the event of a claim in title where you stand to lose your property. Here in Mexico it is the only way through in which you can be protected. It´s a guarantee that says: ¨You can get your money back if you lose your property due to fraud or a claim in title.¨ If you don´t have title insurance and there is a claim in title then you are on your own and would have to fight off any litigation to protect your property. The attorneys, the notary public, the government, and public registry will not help you.

What are the legal effects if I do have the title insurance?

Prior to insuring the property your lawyers have to verify that the property is free and clear of any liens. They also must confirm that the seller is the rightful owner. This is done through the title research which verifies that everything is in order, giving you a complete chain of title from beginning to end, even going back until the time of the revolution if necessary. Every single transfer of title or modification of the property is checked to see if it was done appropriately and the underwriting process we will determine if the property is insurable or not. If anything is wrong the insurance policy could have an exception of coverage. Or you may be denied the granting of the insurance policy on that property.

Mexican Caribbean Life = House Guests

Once you become a resident of the Mexican Caribbean, you discover that friends and family members -some of which you had not heard about in years, centuries or even millennia, decide it's time to pay a visit. Nothing like a few weeks or months at your home to reestablish friendship and family bonds, right?

How can you prevent these family and friends and their continuous visits? Offer them an ideal way to ensure that they will see you and will enjoy the Caribbean, but without having to settle permanently in your house.  Suggest they visit you on a cruise!

The major cruise lines offer Cozumel as a destination, with cruise ships leaving from California, Florida, Louisiana and Texas. Cozumel is an island conveniently located close to Playa del Carmen, Cancun and Tulum and it is known to be an ideal place for water sports such as diving and snorkeling.

Attractions

Cozumel is not only a beautiful tropical island with powdery white sands and turquoise waters, there is plenty to do and see for visitors!

If your 3^rd cousin loves jewelry, Cozumel has plenty of specialized shops offering a wide array of styles and very reasonable prices. You can also find all sorts of Mexican crafts shops, specialized Tequila and Mescal stands, and so many other things.

For your adventurous friends, Cozumel also has natural attractions such as the ChanKanaab National Park; where you can swim with dolphins, manatees and other species. Also it is one of the best locations to practice snorkeling and scuba, and see the over 250 species of fish that live there.

In addition to sunbathing on the beaches, cruise lines will offer shore excursions for organized tours to Cozumel's main attractions.

Shore Excursions

Along with excursions in Cozumel, your cruise line will offer shore excursions to the nearby Yucatan peninsula. The most frequent Yucatan shore excursions from a Cozumel cruise are trips to Mayan ruin sites such as: Tulum, Chichen Itza and Coba. The Yucatan Coast, called Riviera Maya, has many caverns and cenotes (sinkholes) as well as plenty of natural parks such as Xcaret, Xel-ha or X-Plore among others.

But there is more!

So after you and your family or friends enjoy your reunion, there is more to come! Most of these cruises extend from three up to seventeen days. That means they will surely have to leave after a day or two in Cozumel, and you can go back to your peaceful Caribbean home and enjoy a margarita, or two.

What better way to recover from the heartbreaking farewells than the promise of more beautiful Caribbean spots awaiting for their arrival. Go ahead talk to them about the beauty of the Bahamas, Grand Cayman or Jamaica; or even Belize and Costa Rica. Some other cruises stop in the U.S Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, St. Marteen or Aruba.

Cruises are an excellent choice for everyone, from couples on their honeymoon, to families and the elderly couple that wants to relax and enjoy. Explore the services and costs for different cruise lines and make sure your friends and family pick the right one for their needs and their lifestyle.

Cozumel Real Estate has also seen the benefits of increased cruise activity in the area.

Now if you have any question about this or any of the Top Mexico Real Estate properties we have listed in Playa Del Carmen, The Riviera Maya or anywhere throughout Mexico, please feel free to contact any of our Top Mexico Buyers’ Representatives and we will be glad to help you find your very own piece of paradise.

“Mi Casa es tu Casa with Thomas Lloyd”: Original Real Estate Series

The Top Mexico Channel launched the pilot episode of their new original series “Mi Casa es tu Casa with Thomas Lloyd” this past week. It was a huge success, receiving rave reviews.

"Mi Casa es tu Casa with Thomas Lloyd" is an original series that showcases real people from the United States, Canada and different parts of the world as they take on their international adventure of searching for the perfect real estate property and neighborhood in the Riviera Maya, Mexico.

With lifestyle and real state shows becoming the fastest growing genre of television programming in the United States and Canada, the Top Mexico Channel realized that Mexico was missing a promotional outlet that could solely promote the real estate market in Mexico. The Top Mexico Channel crafted a perfect blend of Mexico lifestyle living meets Mexico real estate with its’ flagship debut project “Mi Casa es tu Casa with Thomas Lloyd”. The reason for creating this show was not only to entertain, but to also educate guests on the “ins” and “outs” of how to buy real estate safely in Mexico.

“MI Casa es tu Casa” will be filmed entirely in the Riviera Maya and is the very first television series dedicated to promoting, and selling, the Riviera Maya. The show will not only promote Real Estate throughout the region, but also its’ ever-growing tourism.  Anyone who sees the beautiful Riviera Maya will want to visit this tropical paradise, and hopefully someday, retire, purchase a second home or invest.

The first season will have 6 episodes, with a new episode airing every month on the Top Mexico Channel.

The first episode, “Golf Living in Paradise”, follows our guests John and Lydia, both avid golfers, who are looking to call the Riviera Maya their “home course”.  With the help of Thomas Lloyd and his TOP Buyers Representatives, John and Lydia begin, searching and ultimately find the perfect “fairway paradise” home they’ve been looking for their whole life.

Join the John and Lydia on their journey of finding the perfect paradise property and watch the first episode of “Mi Casa es tu Casa with Thomas Lloyd” on the topmexicochannel.com.
