Overview
- The reform entered into force on October 28 after publication in the Gaceta Oficial on October 27, covering both rentals and property sales across the capital.
- Article 4 now includes protection for “cohabitation with children and sentient beings,” making clauses or ads that state “no children” or “no pets” unlawful discrimination.
- Residents can report violations to COPRED or the city’s legal counsel, and newer guidance directs complaints to the Social Attorney’s Office (PROSOC) via 55-51-28-52-00 or prosoc@cdmx.gob.mx.
- Outlets differ on operational oversight, with SEDUVI or PROSOC cited, and practical enforcement depends on people filing complaints.
- Landlords may still request deposits and reasonable property-care conditions, while proponents say the change addresses exclusion of families and pet abandonment linked to rental restrictions.
