Ownership Cost Calculator

Estimate annual holding costs across taxes, maintenance, and professional services.

How this calculator works

Enter your property's tax-assessed value (the value used to calculate property tax) and, if it is rented, its annual rent. Add costs such as property tax, building or community fees, insurance, repairs, or management. The calculator uses the rates and amounts you enter, turns monthly fees into yearly costs, and shows both the annual total and monthly average.

Property value (cadastral)

Used to estimate annual predial taxes. Enter the assessed value in MXN.
