Mexico Real Estate and Construction Sector Report 2025-2026

Real estate and construction activities are a key pillar of the Mexican economy. In 2024, the construction sector contributed 6.7% of Mexico's GDP. Over the 2019-2024 period, the sector's gross value added (GVA) expanded at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 2.1% in real terms. Infrastructure construction was the primary driver of this growth, with a CAGR of 8.3%. Major projects, including the Tren Maya rail network, played a significant role in this expansion. Another factor that contributed to the positive performance of the construction sector in 2024 was the construction of industrial parks in northern Mexico, which capitalised on nearshoring opportunities. Additionally, tourism-related construction projects in states of the Riviera Maya region also played a role. The medium-term outlook for the sector varies depending on the segment. The housing segment is expected to remain strong due to the government's ambitious plan to construct housing projects directly. However, the infrastructure segment faces challenges due to government spending slowing down and infrastructure bottlenecks that hinder opportunities. Non-residential construction is also expected to be affected by a lack of space and infrastructure constraints.
