The single greatest frustration for high-earning expatriates moving to Mexico City is the refusal of traditional local rental services to accept their foreign documentation—even six-figure work contracts and healthy foreign bank statements.
The Problem: Local Services Lack International Vetting Tools
The issue is not your income; it is the inability of local guarantee services to verify it. To underwrite the risk of a rental contract, the guarantor service whether a Fianza or Póliza Jurídica must verify the tenant's stability (more on this here). Most local services lack the expertise or specialized framework required to analyze and validate foreign credit scores, international bank statements, and multi-currency income streams.
Standard Documentation: Foreigners are routinely asked for a passport, proof of steady foreign income (3–6 months of bank statements), and a work contract.
The Vetting Gap: If the income documents are not from a local, regulated Mexican institution, most traditional Aval providers will simply reject them, forcing the tenant to rely on a significantly higher security deposit (often two months instead of one) or months of advanced rent (3–12 months).
The Solution: The Specialized Aval for Foreigners
To overcome this, you require a specialized Aval service that is explicitly designed to accept and analyze international financial documentation. This service acts as the necessary bridge, confirming the financial health of the foreign tenant using international standards and presenting that validated risk profile to the landlord in a compliant local legal format.
