A trust is a permit granted by the SRE (Ministry of Foreign Affairs) through a Mexican bank, where the foreigner is the beneficiary. This grants all rights over the property, as if you were the direct owner. At Onix Living, we work with prestigious banks that expedite the creation of trusts, offering legal security and peace of mind to our clients.

At Onix Living, we facilitate the process by collaborating with trusted notaries who are familiar with our properties, ensuring a fast and efficient procedure.
