Every couple of weeks, I read/hear that people are misplacing their mobile devices: Iphones, Ipads or Android devices. There are some simple steps that you can take to locate your lost devices if you take some time right now. For Apple users: http://www.apple.com/icloud/find-my-iphone.html.  Make sure you have signed up for Icloud and enabled Find my Iphone on each device. For Android users: https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/6160491?hl=en
If you have lost your phone and have a data plan, you can locate it quickly if you find a computer or other mobile device and sign-in to “Find my ….”. Once you know it's missing, sign into your account while the battery still has a charge. Here is another link to help track lost devices: http://trendblog.net/how-to-track-your-lost-iphone-or-ipad-without-tracking-app/  I ran a test on my phones (I can't say how many phones I have, my wife reads the BPE.) The test results showed our house and which side of the house the device was located. If you know the device is in your house but can't find it, you can send an annoying tone to that device to help locate it.

From my limited Spanish, it looks like the Baja 300 off road race will start and end here over the 6 Feb weekend. Pre Race will practice on 23 - 24 Jan and again 30 - 31 Jan. Here is the web site in Spanish: http://www.probajaoffroad.com/

Fideicomiso Changes: Don’t panic. It’s true that HSBC, Banamex, and Bancomer are no longer offering the Fideicomiso or bank trust necessary for foreigners to hold title to property in the restricted zone in Mexico (pretty much all of Baja). If your fideicomiso is with one of these banks, it appears that you are fine until you need to make a change such as selling or renewing if your 30/50 years are up. To-date, HSBC and Banamex are not transferring (seceding) the rights to existing trusts. If your fideicomiso is with one of these banks and you want to sell your property, you’ll need to cancel your trust (generally a Seller’s expense) and your Buyer will need to start a new one. Bancomer is also not offering new fideicomisos but they are still allowing you to secede (transfer) the rights to your existing trust to a new owner. This means less competition but it could also mean that the banks that are still offering trusts actually want that business and will provide better service.🙏 Things are in flux but right now Scotia, Interacciones, Banco de Bajio and Santander are all options. If you are with one of the banks getting out of the Fideicomiso business and are planning on buying or selling soon, feel free to contact me for more information.

ANSWERS - DISCUSSIONS

a.   I drove the road from San Antonio to Los Planes to La Paz this past Friday. The portion to Los Planes was nice with only three major washouts of concern. Those washouts were clearly marked. There is some sand in all of those arroyos. Lots of livestock on or near that portion. The road from Los Planes to La Paz is better than past years but there are lots of surprises along that stretch with numerous pot holes that pop up on the unseen side of hills. I would call that portion OK but don't drive too fast!  thecomputerguy
