  1. What Do I need to buy and sell a car?

    What documents are needed to purchase a vehicle in Mexico? A passport is the best photo identification. Foreigners need a VISA TEMPORAL or VISA PERMANENTE, plus proof of address in Mexico. That’s to make sure you are legal in country.
    In Jalisco, Mexico a Tourist Visa does not qualify a person to purchase a car.
     
    What you need is a phone or electric bill no older than the past 60 days, showing the full civic address in your name.
     
     If a car buyer has no proof of address because documents are in the name of a previous property owner or the present landlord if renting, then there must be a copy of the purchase agreement or rental agreement (minimum one year) plus copies of the appropriate utility bills in the owner’s name and his/her picture ID. Copy all documents for the officials.

    You only need to qualify one time provided you don't allow it to lapse.

    Yes, you can very easily extend your temporal yourself. Go to the INM office in Chapala and ask them for the instructions, which they have printed in English. 

    Use Google Chrome when you go online to fill out the request for the extension. 

    It's not difficult and if you do make an error, they will tell you what you need to do to fix it.

    Great ideas/suggestions.  THANKS!

  4. Does the CURP Card come with the services of a facilitator(local Lakeside Attorney)

    or if not, how does one obtain the CARD FORM of the CURP.

    I visited the Immigration office in Chapala..had dig. fingerprints and photos taken

    had paid the fee through the Lakeside facilitator(attorney) but was not given

    a plastic Curp Card.

    Thanks for your help/experience.

     

  5. I shop elsewhere

    Have to be too vigilant to ward off pickpockets

    One attempt was foiled...one was not...loss one watch

    Cashier problems...changing money amounts(the quick switch asking for exact change after receiving  larger bill with my payment)

    and 'failing' to return my larger bill which I had originally provided for payment...

    Security is a challenge..and little follow up.

    AND the parking area is a hazard with much thievery.

    I live in Ajijic Centro, It is easy to walk to to all the best restaurants and shops, Clinica Ajijic is close by too, And Plaza one block away...

    YES, many choose Ajijic for this decided advantage.  There are seemingly disadvantages as well.

    Not experienced but your comments were of assistance.

    Thank you😊

  7. Living style in the Ajijic village area seems to be preferred over other

    locations.  What seems to be the motivating aspects of choosing a lakeside area?

    Quiet bucolic locations seem valued less. 

    Please share any suggestions to assist in choosing a location at lakeside.  Your own home location/site

    and its advantages and or disadvantages.

    Need assistance choosing lifestyle location in lakeside.  And am concerned with finding a happy

    medium between high density population vs. water and environmental advantages of an area.

    Is Ajijic the location, location, location guideline to use ?

     

    Thanks
