Buy Property in Mexico Through Co-ownership
Owning a beach home in Tulum or a mountain retreat in Valle de Bravo usually means paying the full price outright, or renting the same week every year. Kocomo lists co-ownership properties across Mexico's top vacation regions, from the Riviera Maya to the Pacific coast and Central Mexico, with shares starting from $31,692 USD (or from MXN 460,000 for peso-priced listings). Every listing comes from vetted providers like Ancana, with transparent pricing and resale support built in. Here is what is for sale now, what it actually costs, and how co-ownership works in Mexico.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Kocomo?
Kocomo is a marketplace and educational hub for the co-ownership of vacation homes, bringing people closer to their dream of owning a second home.
Kocomo makes it easy to learn about the co-ownership model, compare the industry’s key providers, and find the vacation property that’s perfect for you.
Can foreigners buy property in Mexico?
Yes. Foreigners can buy property freely inland. Along the coast (within about 50km) or near a border (within about 100km), purchases go through a fideicomiso — a bank trust that holds legal title on your behalf while you retain full beneficial ownership and rights to sell, rent, or pass on the property.
How much does it cost to co-own a vacation home in Mexico?
Kocomo's Mexican listings currently start from $31,692 USD for a share (or from MXN 460,000 for peso-priced listings), depending on the provider and location.
What is a fideicomiso and do I need one?
A fideicomiso is a Mexican bank trust used for foreign-owned coastal and border real estate. You are the beneficiary with full rights to use, rent, sell, or will the property; the bank simply holds title as required by Mexican law. Most Kocomo listings in Mexico's coastal regions use this structure.
Is co-ownership the same as a timeshare?
No. Co-ownership gives you a deeded percentage of real equity in the property — you can sell it, will it, or watch it appreciate. A timeshare only grants a right to use a unit for a fixed week, with no ownership stake. See our Timeshare vs Co-ownership Guide.
How many weeks per year can I use my share?
It depends on your share size, but most co-ownership arrangements allocate 4 to 8 weeks per year, split across seasons so every owner gets a mix of peak and off-peak time.
Can I resell my share later?
Yes — your beneficial interest in the fideicomiso (or your deeded share, outside the restricted zone) can be sold or passed on, subject to the co-ownership structure's resale terms.
