Here are 5 things to consider buying a property in Baja.

1- Check to see how you have to hold title.  The "restricted zone' for foreigners is 100km from a border and 50km from the coast.  Baja California peninsula is, in effect, mostly in the restricted zone.  You can hold property fee-simple in outside of the restricted zone but need to use a bank trust or fideicomiso

2-Work with a professional real estate agent. Knowledge and expertise is in important

3- Understand the roles of a notario publico (public notary) as a title search agent, closing agent, and county recorder.

4. Understand all the additional costs of property ownership in Mexico such us, closing cost, property taxes, and land trust fees,
