Notarial service

Title recording and notarial procedures

We coordinate each phase of the title recording process so your ownership is perfectly regularized and recorded.

What is title recording?

Title recording is the legal act by which a notary public attests to the transfer, modification or creation of property rights over real estate, entering it in a notarial protocol and issuing the testimonio that is then recorded in the Public Registry of Property.

Without a recorded public deed, the buyer does not formally evidence ownership before third parties and is exposed to hidden defects, succession conflicts and inability to sell, mortgage or bequeath the asset with legal certainty.

Our firm coordinates the entire process with Quintana Roo notaries: file assembly, tax calculation and payment, appraisal management, drafting of special clauses and client representation at signing. We also intervene in complex deeds: foreigners, successions, trusts, mortgages and corporate operations.

Types of deeds we handle

Any act requiring notarial faith over real estate or corporate matters:

  • Sale and purchase deed (transfer between individuals or with corporations).
  • Bank trust deed for foreign buyers.
  • Adjudication deed for inheritance, gift or estate partition.
  • Mortgage or INFONAVIT/FOVISSSTE loan deeds.
  • Articles of incorporation and amendments for commercial entities.
  • General, special or litigation powers of attorney.
  • Regularization deed: when property is possessed but title is not recorded.
  • Mortgage cancellations, expired trusts and lien releases.

Our process

From file assembly to delivery of the recorded testimonio:

  1. 1

    Initial diagnosis

    We review the registry history, identify missing documents and outline a realistic timeline with itemized costs per phase.

  2. 2

    Document assembly

    We obtain freedom-of-lien certificates, property tax and water clearances, cadastral file, appraisal, IDs, CURP and RFC of the parties.

  3. 3

    Notary and draft

    We select the appropriate notary, submit the file and review the deed draft before signing. We validate clauses, amounts and taxes.

  4. 4

    Signing and protocolization

    We accompany the signing, ensuring each party understands the scope. We coordinate tax payments and notarial fees.

  5. 5

    Registry recording

    We manage the recording in the Public Registry of Property and, once the recorded testimonio is received, deliver it to the client with a digital backup.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. The notary attests the act but represents impartiality; they do not defend the specific interests of buyer or seller. Our firm reviews the draft before signing, ensures clauses protect our client and validates tax aspects that the notary does not analyze in depth by law.

Costs include: notarial fees (official scale on operation value, typically 1.5%–2.5%), acquisition tax (ISAI, approx. 2% in Q. Roo), appraisal, registry and clearance certificates, registry recording and professional fees. We provide a written quote before starting.

A frequent issue in the region. Before signing the sale, the chain of title must be regularized. We diagnose and propose actions: summary civil trial, ad perpetuam information, positive prescription or succession adjudication, as applicable.
