Gerry Burchard: The Truth About Buying and Owning Real Estate in Mexico

Can an American really own land in Mexico? Gerry Burchard says yes, and the 99-year lease is a myth.

Gerry went from San Francisco stockbroker to Cabo developer. He built 34 villas and a tennis club and hired 170 people. Now he is a realtor in two countries.

He tells Bruce Bean what it really takes to buy and live in Mexico. Trusts near the coast. Low property taxes. Health coverage. And how he uses AI to compare a manufactured home with a $1 million house.

Key takeaways:

You can own property in Mexico. There is no 99-year lease.

Near the coast or border, you hold title in a bank trust.

Property tax in Cabo can be a small part of what you pay in California.

A lower price home can mean the same payment and money in the bank.
