Seller Tip
 ''In most situations, property is sold in U.S. dollars, so if you are American you may not need to do an exchange until you pay for living expenses in Mexican pesos (MXN). However, if you are Canadian you will need to buy U.S. dollars up front to purchase the property. Canadian buyers should pay close attention to the USD/CAD exchange rate, as volatility in the currency markets can have drastic repercussions on the final Canadian dollar (CAD) cost of the Mexican property.'' |

Rental Tip
''Moving overseas is an exciting prospect. There is so much that is fresh and new in the experience. But before you get too carried away with the adrenalin of the move, it is wise to find out a little about what living there is going to be like. In particular you will want to think about the most important concern - your abode. Is renting and buying property in a foreign country a feasible option?''
