Buying from abroad

You don't need to live in Bogotá to buy here

Many of the people I work with are looking for a home in Bogotá from another country. I'm your eyes on the ground: I visit, ask the questions you would ask and keep the purchase moving while you're far away.

  • Video-call tours of every property you're interested in
  • Digital documents and signatures so the deal can move forward remotely
  • Clear explanations of each step of buying in Colombia, in English

Why buying from afar goes wrong

Photos online don't tell you the whole story.

Paying more than it's worth

Asking prices in Bogotá vary a lot from building to building. Comparing with what actually sells nearby keeps you from overpaying.

Surprises after the photos

Noise, light, the state of the building, the neighborhood at night. I check what pictures don't show before you commit.

Paperwork you don't know

Buying in another country means unfamiliar steps. I explain each one and the legal team reviews the documents with you.

How it works

Four steps, from your first message to the deed

  1. 01

    Understand what you need

    We talk about your budget, the area, the type of property and your timing.

  2. 02

    Find the right options

    I search listings and the eXp network, filter them and send you only what fits.

  3. 03

    Visit and compare

    Video tours, my notes on each property and a market comparison so you can decide with facts.

  4. 04

    Negotiate and close

    I negotiate the terms with the seller and work with the legal team alongside you until the deed is signed.

What my clients say

“Leo helped me buy my home by negotiating terms between both parties that benefited me as the buyer and the seller alike. Thanks to that, the deal was possible.”

Frequently asked questions

Can foreigners buy property in Colombia?

Yes. Foreigners can buy property in Colombia. Money brought in from abroad for the purchase has to be registered as foreign investment with Colombia's central bank, and the legal team guides you through that step.

Can I buy without traveling to Bogotá?

Much of the process can be done remotely: video tours, digital documents and signatures. I'll tell you from the start which steps, if any, need you or a representative in person.

Can I get a mortgage?

It depends on your situation. I work with a mortgage advisor and can connect you to review your options before you start looking.

What happens after I leave my details?

I contact you by WhatsApp or email to understand what you're looking for and send you the first options, free of charge.
