Remote buying

Can I close on a Texas home from Mexico?

Often yes, using remote online notarization where allowed, power of attorney, or couriered documents — coordinated with title. Remote closings demand strict wire-fraud controls: verify payee instructions by phone using independently known numbers, never email alone.

Detailed explanation

See the remote-purchase timeline for stage-by-stage expectations. Inspections can use buyer’s agents and video walk-throughs, but major decisions still need clear authority and documented approvals.

Wire-fraud warning: Criminals spoof email near closing. Before sending any wire, call your title company using a phone number you verified independently (official website or prior business card) — not a number in a new email. Confirm account name, number, and amount.
