Selling Bolivia property to foreign buyers

Our advice when selling a property from Bolivia to international buyers is :

For you to make a good representation of your property, you should take good quality pictures of the property. Also the description should be detailed enough to let whoever is interested know what to expect. Include information about how close the property is to major transport links such roads, stations, public transport and airports. Also provide information that describes amenities such as nearness to schools.

Give a good thought to who the buyer may be and supply information based on that. A young couple looking to relocate will be interested in a home that is affordable, safe and close to basic amenities such as schools, parks, stores. A Swiss or German buyer may simply be looking for investment opportunities as well as a second home option that may be easily rented out when they are not there.

Do not be tempted by greed. The internet provides a wealth of resources that buyers have access to. Do  not place unreasonable prices on your Bolivian property assuming the naivety of prospective buyers. This age long assumption is one of the biggest mistakes sellers of property on line make.

Make yourself available should anyone need more information on your listings.

You should also consider giving a 360 degrees view of the property or creating a short video that can give a buyer a better view of your property.

How to buy real estate in Bolivia

There are no restrictions to land ownership by foreigners in Bolivia. As a foreigner, you may own your property in your name and obtain residence as a result of that.

Be warned, there is no title insurance, so you must do a diligent research to make sure you are doing business with the right person.

Beware of squatters if you are considering settling on the countryside because some indigenous people may decide to build homes on your land and it will be difficult to get them off your property. Investment property guide advice can be found at NuwireInvestor.com

General advice when buying property in Bolivia

• Be certain not to append your signature on a contract that is written in a language you do not know without a translation.
• Follow through with all the legal procedures involved in your transaction. Do not be tempted to do otherwise for cash benefits offered by the buyer.
• Get a confirmed written acknowledgement of all agreements and always insist on paper receipts of all payments made.
• Find out and adhere to local laws when buying and renting out property
• Make enquiries and be certain that whoever is selling a property to you has the legal right to do so. If buying a partially developed  or brand new building from a developer, be certain that the title deed for the property exists.
• Also carry out search to know that the deeds to the property are free from lien .
• Research and ask questions about the area to get knowledge on issues that may arise before you make your purchase, ask adequate questions with regards to weather, amenities etc.
• Also check to see that there are no liabilities such as outstanding utility bills and the likes that you may oncur from the former owner.
• Talk to other property owners in the area or on the development to establish if there are any issues you should be aware of before purchasing (such as floods in winter, lack of water or electricity supplies in summer)

Selling a property don’t forget about your currency and the Boliviano

Another of our very important tips for anyone looking to buy property in Bolivia is to be familiar with the currency exchange methods.international property transactions depend largely on the foreign currency exchange rates and this can be quite unstable. Beware because a slight fluctuation may lead to great losses for you. To forestall such losses, it’s wise to engage the services of foreign currency specialists who are more aware of the foreign exchange market and can provide better rates at lower fees than most banks.

Also you may have to open an account in a Bolivian bank before the purchase can be finalised unless you are buying directly from the developer.

This is to make certain that your funds are right where they should be when. For more advice on foreign exchange, check Currency Zone.
