the three family members had $4,800 net income per month. Despite those positives, they ended up with an adjustable-rate mortgage that rose from a $2,800 monthly payment to $3,500.

Stupid in any language. $2,800 on a $4,800 take home pay? Even if the rate was fixed that would be an incredible amount of money.

If I were going to Mexico to buy some property, there is no way I would go in without my own representative (probably a lawyer) who spoke English and Spanish.

That was my first thought. More than 50% of your take home on housing? Yikes!

You can't buy property in Mexico. You're not a citizen. That's Mexican Federal Law.
