Sandra Yanaura, Foreign Tax Law Bulletin, December 1997
This book exceeds all expectations. It is not only an excellent readable introduction to Mexican real estate law, but is comprehensive and up to the minute as well. How to Buy Real Estate in Mexico fills a much needed gap in the vailability of knowledge on Mexican real estate law in the English language. It is an almost compulsory item for any library whose patrons are at all interested in recent developments in Mexican law, and it is urgent for anyone contemplating the purchase of real estate in Mexico or for those who would advise or assist others in such a purchase.
Josshua Chaffin, Mexico Business Magazine, November 1997
Dennis Peyton, an American licensed to practice law in Mexico, highlights the various legal pitfalls and how to best navigate them in clear, readable prose. It does do an excellent job of preparing the reader for the Mexican property buying adventure, from determining who holds title to a parcel of land to appraising it to discussing the likely contractual obligations of a deal. Peyton also sprinkles his book with kernels of real life experience from doing business in Mexico, something missing from more clinical guidebooks.
