Placing your property on any of these platforms could be a great way of recovering your investment and even generating some extra income for you and your family. Sounds good, doesn’t it?
Before you commit to renting your new home away from home, you should take into consideration that as with any other business, vacation rentals are subject to obtaining a number of permits and licenses from the Mexican authorities. At Iniestra & Associates, our accountancy and licenses team have the knowledge and experience to assist you!

This can be interpreted in the sense that, although conditions in Mexico are good for starting a business, there are still some complexities in navigating through our government’s bureaucracy.
