Receiving a cash gift from parents overseas but getting the money from a US company

Hello,  my dad (Non-US Citizen)  would like to give me (I am a US Citizen)  and my wife 50k for our new house, he does not have the cash but is going to sell one of his properties in Mexico to a US company and the US company will send the money to my account.  Do I need to report this transaction? Is it still consider a gift? 

I have been trying to look online but I could not find any information.  

My dad will pay all the reportable taxes in Mexico. 

 

Thanks for the help!
