Land Title Legalization at Muñoz IndustriesAt Muñoz Industries, we specialize in navigating the complexities of property title legalization in Mexico. The Mexican property system is intricate, encompassing various title types such as Colonial, Ejidal, Irrigation District, and National titles. Only National titles are inherently private property titles from their issuance. All other title types may be converted into private property under current laws, but this requires a rigorous and challenging process. Possessing one of those called titles does not automatically confer full ownership; it merely grants the right to initiate this complex legalization procedure. We ensure that all our lands meet the highest standard of legalization for private property, which we refer to as the "extreme test." This involves tracing the chain of registration back to the original title that legally transferred the land from national to private ownership through a duly issued title. This meticulous process is rooted in Article 27 of the Mexican Constitution, which establishes that all land within the nation's borders is national property by default. Only the Nation has the authority to designate land as private property. No judge, court ruling, governor, or other authority can independently issue a title. While some older titles exist, they have either been reviewed and converted to National titles or remain national property, as they are imprescriptible, inalienable, and unseizable meaning that you can not aquire them by time ocupation, or legal order or a judge rulling, only the National title office can issue a legally issued National Land title converting the property to private property fron that time on. Role of Public Notary in Property OwnershipMany individuals, including legal professionals, mistakenly believe that a public notary's document confirms property ownership. In reality, a notary's certification does not establish or prove ownership. It solely attests that the notary, as an authorized legal expert and witness, has verified that the persons involved signed a sale contract, for the land title; he supposedly has to verify that the title is a legally issued private property title, but they take another public notary word as evidenced of a valid Private Property title, and it is not always the case.
