Administration Costs & Condo HOA Fees in Mexico

This low-density property example has 10 units and reflects 2021 sample prices for all common expenses, insurance, a reserve fund, and more! High-density properties usually have a lower cost per square meter (m2), since the fixed expenses can be divided among more owners, but this usually means you have to share common condo amenities with other owners; e.g. pool, business centers, parking, etc.

HOA Fees: Price per Area

In the example below, the monthly amount due per unit ended up being $78.46 MXN per m2. This may seem a bit high, but this was for a boutique property with 12 units and cleaning inside each unit was included twice a week. Prices obviously vary depending on the number of units in the property and the amenities offered; e.g. heated pool, cleaning staff, pool maintenance, security, etc. Example units in the property would pay the following:

  1. A studio of 30 m2 = $2353 MXN / month
  2. A 1-bedroom of 50 m2 = $3923 MXN / month
  3. A 2-bedroom of 75 m2 = $5884 MXN / month
