Buying property in Mexico doesn’t always mean choosing from what’s already built. One of the most exciting — and profitable — ways to invest is through pre-sale.

Pre-sale means securing a property before it’s completed — sometimes when it’s just a blueprint. It’s a model that’s booming across Mexico’s coastal markets because it allows investors and lifestyle buyers to lock in today’s price while watching value grow during construction.

The Benefits of Pre-Sale:

✅ Lower entry price compared to finished units.

✅ Equity growth as value often appreciates during construction.

✅ Customization of finishes, layouts, and upgrades.

✅ Developer incentives such as payment plans or upgrades for early buyers.

The Risks You Need to Know:

⚠️ Project delays that push back delivery.

⚠️ Unfinished builds if a developer lacks funding or experience.

⚠️ Weak contracts that don’t protect the buyer.

How to Buy Pre-Sale Safely:

- Do thorough due diligence on the developer’s track record.

- Ensure contracts are reviewed and certified by a Notario Público.

- Structure payments to protect your capital — not all upfront.

- Explore financing options designed for pre-sale (yes, they exist for foreigners!).
