Dreaming of owning a home in Mexico? Whether you’re a US citizen, Canadian expat, or local buyer, our Mexico mortgage calculator helps you determine how much home you can afford in Mexico for 2025. This ultimate guide covers mortgage rates, eligibility, paperwork, and financing options—everything you need to unlock your Mexican dream home. Let’s get started!
Using Our Mexico Mortgage Calculator
Estimate your monthly payments with our interactive tool below. Input your property price (e.g., $150,000), down payment (e.g., 30% or $45,000), loan term (e.g., 15 years), and annual interest rate (e.g., 9%, based on 2025 averages). For a $150,000 home with a 30% down payment ($45,000), a 15-year mortgage at 9% yields approximately $900/month. Adjust the sliders to fit your budget and explore options!

Why Use Our Mexico Mortgage Calculator?
Mortgage rates in Mexico have historically ranged from around 9% to 16%, which might seem high compared to past US rates—until you consider recent trends where rates are projected to trend lower. Our Mexico mortgage calculator empowers you to crunch the numbers, factoring in your income, savings, and unique financial strategies. Whether you’re eyeing a beachfront condo in Puerto Vallarta or a pueblo retreat in Guanajuato, this tool shows what’s within reach.

Current Mexico Mortgage Rates in 2025
As of July 2025, Mexico’s average fixed mortgage rates range from 9% to 12%, with the Banco de México’s benchmark rate projected to decrease further toward 6% by 2026. For foreigners, cross-border loans from a broker like Global Mortgage (MoXi) offer competitive rates around 7-9% in USD. Use our Mexico mortgage rates calculator above to compare.
Historical trends: Rates averaged 6.34% from 2005 to 2025, with a high of 11.25% in 2023 and recent quarterly averages around 12%. Factors include global economics, inflation stabilizing at around 3%, and the peso’s strength.
Leverage Your US Property for a Mexico Dream Home
Boost your buying power by using your US property as leverage. Options like a second mortgage or a home equity line of credit (HELOC) can bridge the gap, often at lower rates than Mexican loans. Mexico Life Realty’s bilingual team, with expertise from Puerto Vallarta to Guanajuato, guides you through this process, maximizing your investment.
