DreamSmith Global
San Miguel de Allende Real Estate
Many of Ashley Smith's Lake Lanier clients ask where they would spend part of the year if they could. For a growing number, the answer is San Miguel de Allende, in the highlands of Guanajuato, Mexico. Ashley now advises buyers from the United States and Canada there through DreamSmith Global.
How does Ashley Smith help buyers in San Miguel de Allende?
Ashley advises and represents her buyers with the same approach she brings to Lake Lanier, and she works in collaboration with CDR San Miguel | Forbes Global Properties, the local brokerage on the ground. CDR San Miguel handles local showings, contracts and the closing with the notario. You keep one advisor from the first conversation to the keys, and a local team that knows the city as residents.
San Miguel's historic center is part of a UNESCO World Heritage site, and most of the neighborhoods buyers ask about sit within reach of it, from cobblestone Centro to hillside view homes and golf communities on the edge of town. The full guides, live listings and buying process live on DreamSmith Global.

What do buyers ask about San Miguel de Allende?
- Can a US or Canadian buyer own a home in San Miguel de Allende?
- Yes. San Miguel de Allende is inland and outside Mexico's restricted zone, the strip within 50 kilometers of the coast or 100 kilometers of an international border, so a foreign buyer can hold title directly in their own name rather than through a bank trust (fideicomiso). Confirm the details for your purchase with a notario and a Mexican attorney.

- Ashley Smith advises and represents her buyers, and she works in collaboration with CDR San Miguel | Forbes Global Properties, the local brokerage that handles showings, contracts and the closing with the notario.
