Not only have properties increased in value, but we have also a broader portfolio, offering options ranging from apartments to luxury properties in exclusive condominiums.

The East zone has been maintaining a trend towards ‘quiet luxury’. Consequently, properties in the market prioritize elements such as gardens, views, yards, and, in general, designs that incorporate nature.

In rentals, prices can range from $800 to $5000 per month, depending on whether one is seeking studio-type spaces or family homes.

Sale prices range from $170,000 to $500,000 or more for apartments, depending on size, location, and amenities. In smaller or less exclusive areas ranging from around $150,000 to $400,000, while larger and luxurious properties can easily surpass the million dollars.

Regarding commercial properties, it is important to note that there is a variety of offerings depending on the area in which you plan to invest. Rentals can range from a few hundred dollars per month to thousands of dollars for large spaces located in privileged areas. The market provides storefronts, warehouses, office buildings, commercial land, and much more.
