Over the last 14 years Mexican Peso (MXP) has devaluated 83% vs US Dollar(USD), this is great news for US, Canadian & European home buyers looking to close their mortgage denominated in Pesos; this means EFFECTIVELY LESS USD needed to pay for your MXP Peso denominated loan over time.

• Appraisal fee ($350-$600)must be paid once the credit has been authorized

• All deals close at the bank’s office or at Public Notary’s office
