I keep seeing investors spend real money setting up Wyoming or Delaware LLCs for “extra protection” instead of simply filing in the state where they own property or operate.

Hey BP community,I wanted to share a quick success story about one of my clients who's been making smart moves in Delaware County, PA, with two solid investment properties that are performing well.🔹 Deal #1:Purchase Price: $220,000Renovation Costs: ~$60,000All-In: $280,000Rented For: $2,800/monthThe tenant just renewed for another year, and we were able to increase the rent slightly to keep pace with inflation.He recently completed a refinance on this property, and it appraised at $385,000 — a great bump in equity that gave him some options for the next deal.🔹 Deal #2:Purchase Price: $228,000Renovation Costs: ~$45,000All-In: $273,000Rented For: $2,500/monthThis one was just recently completed and rented.

Let’s talk about the elephant in the roomIs Mexico in a real estate boom or are we just seeing another hype bubble waiting to pop?

Virtually everything we have is TVA dammed.

I believe there are de minimis rules around whether it requires registration and other compliance stuff.As far as a member-managed LLC with multiple members, the operating agreement details the mechanics of decision making.

The answer is through a fideicomiso, also known as a bank trust, a legal structure created specifically to allow foreign investment in coastal and border areas like Tulum, Playa del Carmen, Los Cabos, and Puerto Vallarta, while still protecting Mexican sovereignty.Here’s how it works:The legal title to the property is held by a Mexican bank authorized by the government.The foreign buyer becomes the sole beneficiary of the trust, with full control over the property.The fideicomiso lasts for 50 years and is renewable indefinitely.As the beneficiary, you have the legal right to:✅ Use the property✅ Rent it out (including platforms like Airbnb)✅ Renovate or modify it✅ Sell it✅ Pass it on to your heirsIt’s important to understand that the fideicomiso is not a restriction — it’s a legally solid and recognized structure that gives you the same rights and protections as any Mexican citizen, when executed properly and with professional guidance.Thanks to this system, thousands of foreign investors have safely and confidently acquired properties in high-demand locations, generating strong returns and lifestyle benefits.But what if the property you’re interested in is outside the restricted zone?

Before anyone tries  to convince you to form an LLC in a state other than the state where the property is located or where you live, ask them to explain the fact pattern where the NV, WY or DE LLC will actually become relevant.
