Have been looking into Commercial Retail shops, laundry mats, etc. but I am a bit unsure how much I could "purchase" with my current cashflow/down payment.

That might not be a lot, but as market rent and appreciation comes up good in 3-5 years, these properties will look like home runs.

If you have enough market data to support your income projections you should be good to go.Lenders don't like Airbnb's much though so maybe you can pitch it to them as a rental?

I'm looking at home equity loans for another rental property we own currently.More than likely, we'll have to put the property back on the market and find some cash to cover the difference between current construction draws and sale price.It's an expensive mistake - but we'll be back again to fight another day.

There are no laws, rules or regulations preventing any foreigner, American or otherwise, to buy property in CDMX or Mexico for that matter.If, by having success, you mean getting a profitable investment, I'm sure many American and other investors got that over the last few years (I personally haven't since I've focused my efforts on Mexico's beach markets, which are far better in my opinion.

prior to rent control, I got rid of my poor tenants by raising their rents above market rent.
