Infonavit Property Verification: Who Qualifies and What You Get

Real estate agents can use this service to validate that a property meets the necessary standards for a mortgage credit.

This service allows for the validation of a property's compliance to ensure it is eligible for a mortgage credit.

Who it's for

This verification process is specifically designed for real estate agents who are assisting buyers in the Mexican property market. It is a tool for professionals who need to ensure that the homes they are showing to clients are legally and structurally sound for the purpose of securing a mortgage credit. By using this service, agents can help protect their clients from potential fraud and ensure the transaction remains secure.

What you get

By undergoing this verification, you receive official validation regarding the property's compliance for a mortgage credit. This process confirms that the property meets the necessary legal and administrative standards required by the Instituto del Fondo Nacional de la Vivienda para los Trabajadores. This validation is a critical step in the mortgage process, providing the assurance needed to proceed with a sale under a mortgage credit arrangement.

What it costs you

While the administrative verification is a standard part of the mortgage process, it is not entirely free of expense. You will be responsible for appraisal fees, known locally as Avalúo. These fees cover the professional assessment of the property to ensure its value and condition are accurately recorded for the credit.

The catch to know

The most important thing to remember is that having the correct paperwork is not enough on its own. Even if all the legal documents are in order, the property must meet specific habitability standards. This means the physical condition of the building and its living environment must be suitable for a residential mortgage to be approved.

How to apply

  1. Visit the official government portal for the Instituto del Fondo Nacional de la Vivienda para los Trabajadores.
  2. Log in to the system to access property verification tools.
  3. Provide the specific details regarding the property you wish to verify.
  4. Arrange for the required appraisal (Avalúo) to confirm the home's condition.
  5. Review the final compliance status through the official portal.
