At an event held on April 23 at the BMW Owner’s Club in Asunción, Francisco Soldani, Commercial Manager of the Petra Group, presented ideas on investments and profitability in the real estate sector. The event, organized by Amy Acosta, Partner of KW Carmelitas, brought together the entire network of agents from Keller Williams Paraguay. In a globally interconnected and constantly changing world, foreign investors are constantly seeking opportunities that offer stability, profitability, and growth. Paraguay has emerged as an attractive investment destination, thanks to key variables that investors consider when evaluating a country. Francisco Soldani shared his perspectives on why Paraguay is attractive to both local and foreign investors. Paraguay stands out as a beacon of macroeconomic stability in a sometimes turbulent region. Inflation remains under control, providing investors with peace of mind. Additionally, sustained economic growth and exchange rate stability are fundamental pillars that attract investments. The fiscal adjustment implemented in 2002 significantly reduced tax rates, stimulating both domestic and foreign investment. Other measures, such as the maquila regime and economic diversification, have strengthened the Paraguayan economy, making it attractive to international investors. Fiscal stability and a high quality of life at relatively low costs make Paraguay an attractive destination for expatriates and retirees. Compared to other countries in the region, Paraguay offers still affordable real estate prices and high growth potential. The Paraguayan real estate market is expected to continue developing, supported by economic growth and domestic demand. Access to mortgage credit at competitive rates will be crucial to drive this market and enable more people to fulfill the dream of homeownership. With these encouraging prospects, Paraguay consolidates itself as an attractive destination for real estate investors, offering unique opportunities in an emerging market with high growth potential. Paraguay has gained the respect of the international investment community thanks to its responsible management of public finances. Unlike some countries in the region with erratic fiscal policies, Paraguay has demonstrated a commitment to macroeconomic discipline. This translates into a lower risk of uncontrolled inflation and greater predictability in the economic environment. Foreign investors value fiscal stability, as it allows them to plan their long-term investments with greater confidence. Paraguay offers a high quality of life at a relatively low cost compared to other countries in the region. This makes it an attractive destination for expatriates and retirees seeking a peaceful and affordable lifestyle. Prices of goods and services, such as housing, food, and transportation, are generally lower than in other South American countries. Additionally, Paraguay's pleasant climate and natural beauty contribute to its appeal as a living destination. When comparing Paraguay with other countries in the region, interesting opportunities arise for real estate investors. In cities like Montevideo (Uruguay) or Buenos Aires (Argentina), apartment prices are at a high level. This creates a significant gap with Asunción, the Paraguayan capital, where prices are still relatively low. While an increase in property prices in Paraguay is expected as the country continues to develop, this increase will be supported by economic growth and domestic demand. Therefore, Paraguay presents a unique opportunity for investors looking to enter an emerging market with high growth potential. While an increase in property prices in Paraguay is expected, this increase will be supported by economic growth and domestic demand. As the country achieves investment grade status and continues to consolidate its stability, the real estate market will experience significant development. Access to mortgage credit at competitive rates will be crucial to drive the Paraguayan real estate market. An accessible financial system will allow young people to access home ownership, boosting demand and generating a virtuous circle of growth. One of the most important aspirations for most people is the acquisition of their own home. The ultimate goal of a healthy real estate market is to facilitate access to housing for a wide spectrum of the population. Paraguay has the opportunity to become a role model in this regard, allowing a large number of people to fulfill the dream of homeownership.

Home Staging is an increasingly popular strategy in the real estate market that aims to prepare a property for sale, maximizing its attractiveness and sales potential. This practice, which is supported by marketing and interior design, does not imply hiding the characteristics of the property, but rather highlighting its strengths and minimizing its weaknesses. The concept of Home Staging is attributed to Barb Schwarz, a Seattle real estate agent, who began beautifying homes for sale in 1972. It involves redecorating, rearranging furniture, cleaning and applying other aesthetic strategies to present the property. best possible way. The goal is to create an attractive environment that generates an emotional connection with potential buyers. According to a study by the National Association of Realtors (NAR), 58% of buyer's agents cited home staging as having an effect on buyers' perception of the property most of the time. time. Additionally, 81% of buyer's agents stated that home staging made it easier to view the property as a future home. Among the benefits of Home Staging are: Stand out online: In a saturated real estate market, it is essential to stand out from the crowd of online properties. Home Staging homes are eye-catching and can attract more potential buyers, even before they see them in person. Create an emotional connection: Home staging helps buyers fall in love with the property by presenting it professionally, with appropriate color combinations, smart designs and unexpected elements that generate positive emotions. Show the potential of spaces: Empty rooms can be difficult to imagine how they could be used. Home staging helps buyers visualize the potential of each space and how to get the most value from it. Increase the sales price: According to NAR, 20% of buyers' agents say that home staging can increase the offering value by 1% to 5% compared to similar unstaged properties. The Home Staging process not only involves interior decoration, but also optimizing the presentation of the property in photographs and virtual tours. According to the NAR report, having quality photos, virtual tours and videos available for properties for sale is essential to capturing the attention of potential buyers. Additionally, it has been observed that Home Staging can make a property sell faster. 62% of agents surveyed by NAR stated that home staging had an impact on the time a property spent on the market. Home Staging can be done by yourself, hiring a decoration company or through alliances with decoration houses. Ultimately, Home Staging facilitates the marketing of the property, as it improves the appearance in photos of the property for sale, attracts attention on social networks and other visual marketing mediums, and, as a result, the properties staged. They tend to sell faster.

The city of Asunción has taken another step towards creating vibrant and functional urban spaces with the recent inauguration of La Cuadrita, a pedestrian street that extends between Cruz del Defensor and Cruz del Chaco streets, on Alberto de Souza street. This project joins other large real estate developments such as the Perseverancia District and More Mariscal , which promise to transform the urban experience in Asunción. Perseverancia District , with its Commercial Pedestrian Area of more than 30,000 m2, will be a center of attraction for lovers of fashion, decoration, gastronomy and design. In addition, it will have a wellness area and a two-story gym. For its part, the More Mariscal project will offer a pedestrian promenade dedicated to gastronomy and commerce. These initiatives reflect a growing trend towards the “pedestrianization” of urban areas, and research studies around the world have shown the positive impact these pedestrianization have on property prices. According to these studies, the increase in rental and sale value of residential properties located in pedestrian zones can be considered as the result of user satisfaction due to certain aspects of the pedestrian path: Firstly, pedestrian streets offer various opportunities such as recreation, access and shopping at the same time. This is especially valued by those looking for spaces where they can enjoy moments of recreation and socialization without having to worry about time or money limitations. Likewise, the lack of alternatives in terms of pedestrian axes in the surrounding area reinforces the impact of the pedestrian zone on property values. Additionally, open space for recreation, social interaction and recreation is very limited in the district, making pedestrianism even more attractive to residents. In very hot climates, the presence of aquatic and plant elements in the pedestrian path helps to make it more comfortable and attractive for users. In addition, the pedestrian street contributes positively to the image and aesthetics of the area, which leads people to appreciate it and use it preferably. The measured impact on the rental price of residential properties is a clear sign of this appreciation. Studies conducted in the United States on the relationship between "walkability" and housing prices have shown a positive correlation. Proximity to local shops and services is associated with higher property values. Furthermore, good urban design and quality green spaces increase property prices and rents. According to a 2007 investigation, the latter increased rents by up to 20%. Walk Score, a privately held commercial real estate information company, has developed a walkability index that assigns a numerical score to any address in the United States, Canada and Australia. Their software has been used by academics to evaluate the relationship between home prices and walkability. Studies have shown that greater walkability promotes higher values and higher net income for office, retail and apartment properties. Academics from renowned universities such as the University of Tokyo and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have carried out an eye-opening study on the pedestrianization of urban roads. This study, based on an exhaustive review of credit card transactions provided by BBVA bank in 14 large Spanish cities, has shown that pedestrianization not only benefits mobility and air quality, but also local businesses. Banking data revealed a consistent increase in sales volume in pedestrianized areas, highlighting the positive impact on the local economy. In summary, pedestrianization not only improves mobility and air quality, but also has a positive impact on the real estate market and the quality of life of citizens. It is an investment in the future of our cities, promoting a healthier and more vibrant urban environment for all.

In a historic event during the 78th Ordinary Congress of Conmebol, the protocol minutes for the 2030 World Cup were signed, thus marking the centenary of the World Cup. The signing, made on the original table of the 1930 World Cup, had the prominent presence of the president of FIFA, Gianni Infantino, the president of Conmebol, Alejandro Domínguez, and the leaders of Paraguay and Uruguay, Santiago Peña and Luis Lacalle Pou, respectively. This sporting event, which will have its inaugural match in Uruguay, will continue with matches in Paraguay and Argentina. For this purpose, Paraguay has committed to the construction of the Conmebol Stadium, a collaboration between the Paraguayan government and the football confederation. With an estimated capacity of 50,000 spectators and a projected cost between 100 and 250 million dollars, this stadium will not only serve as the venue for an exciting soccer match, but will also leave a legacy of top-level sports infrastructure in Paraguay. However, beyond the fervor of the event, there are significant implications for the Paraguayan real estate market. While the direct impact may be smaller compared to countries that hosted more games, such as Brazil in 2014 or Qatar in 2022, an effect will be noticeable. Historically, FIFA tournaments have shown an increase in demand for short-term accommodation in host cities, which in turn leads to increases in rental prices and hotel occupancy. In the case of Paraguay, this can mean an opportunity for the hotel and lodging sector, especially in areas near the Conmebol Stadium located in the city of Luque. In addition, pre-event urban infrastructure improvements, such as new roads, improved public transportation, and development of shopping and entertainment areas, can increase the city's attractiveness to local residents and foreign investors and tourists. These infrastructure projects not only improve the quality of life for citizens, but can also boost property values in surrounding areas. On the other hand, the long-term impact of the World Cup on the Paraguayan real estate market could manifest itself in the increase in the country's international visibility as a tourist and investment destination. The global exposure that accompanies an event of this magnitude can attract the attention of foreign investors and tourists to the Paraguayan real estate market, which could boost demand for residential and commercial properties in the years following the tournament. Real estate agents in countries that have hosted previous World Cups, such as Qatar, Brazil and South Africa, have noted that property prices often see an increase after the event, as demand continues to grow. Although the exact magnitude of the impact of the World Cup on the Paraguayan real estate market is difficult to predict, there is widespread optimism about the opportunities that this event will bring for the construction, hospitality and real estate sectors in general. In short, while Paraguay will only host one match during the 2030 World Cup, the event promises to leave a lasting mark on the country, both in terms of infrastructure and economic opportunities. The momentum generated by the tournament will not only benefit the tourism and hospitality sector, but could also have long-term positive effects on the real estate market, contributing to Paraguay's sustainable growth and development for decades to come.

In the business world, terms are often used interchangeably without considering the precise differences between them. Such is the case of the concepts of Logistics Park and Industrial Park, which, although they share similarities, perform different and complementary functions in the economic framework. The term "Industrial Park" refers to a group of companies that are established in a specific space provided with infrastructure, public services, green areas and common facilities. These parks, in addition to providing support for various industrial activities, also offer a variety of services such as electricity, water treatment, surveillance, internet, among others. Its main function is to maximize production, serving as accommodation for all stages, from manufacturing to product storage. In basic terms, an Industrial Park is made up of administrative buildings, productive activities area, warehouses, platforms for loading and unloading merchandise, exhibition and sales areas, parking areas, perimeter area and waste collection and treatment area. This environment represents an entire business ecosystem where everything from administrative operations to productive and logistical activities are developed. On the other hand, a "Logistics Park" is constituted as a set of buildings intended for the distribution of products and materials manufactured by industrial activities. These centers function as starting and receiving points for transporting production, facilitating commercial outlets for both wholesalers and retailers. Its design and services are focused on optimizing logistics, correcting deviations and errors during the transition between production and consumption, which implies a strategic location to reduce transportation costs. The logistics park is mainly made up of three areas: the reception and unloading area, the storage area and the shipping and loading platform. Its primary objective is to correct deviations and errors during the transition between production and consumption, reducing transportation costs. For this reason, the location of the center must be strategic. The fundamental differences lie in the specific use and functions that each one performs. While a Logistics Park is mainly dedicated to distribution, an Industrial Park houses all the processes of an industry, including activities such as storage and transportation. This translates into a difference in size, where Industrial Parks tend to be larger buildings than Logistics Parks, capable of supporting a greater volume of work. A key aspect that differentiates the two is the range of services they offer. While an Industrial Park provides a wide variety of services necessary for the operation of companies, such as infrastructure, electrical energy, water treatment, surveillance, among others, a Logistics Park focuses on more specific services aimed at the distribution and storage of products, such as loading and unloading platforms, storage areas and spaces for transportation. Despite their differences, both concepts share similarities in terms of the distribution, storage and transportation of industrial products. In fact, Logistics Parks usually complement and reinforce Industrial Parks, extending distribution networks and expanding business influence in areas far from the industrial core. In summary, both Logistics Parks and Industrial Parks are fundamental pieces in efficient supply chains, being essential for the production and transportation of goods and materials effectively in the contemporary business environment.

On Friday, April 19th, PROINVEST successfully celebrated the inauguration of its first real estate development, First Living, located in the prestigious area of Barrio Mariscal.

Among the amenities offered by the development are a swimming pool, heated barbecue area, gym, lobby, elevators, and a garage with 80 parking spaces. Most of the units will be managed for rental through Airbnb.

This area is very attractive for tourists and people coming to work, thanks to its proximity to important services and entertainment areas. It's one block away from Asunción's newest pedestrian street: LA CUADRITA. This street boasts excellent restaurants and is a great attraction that adds significant value to the building's guests.

Investing in a pre-construction can be a tempting possibility for those who want to purchase a home. This type of sale, booming in the country, offers various opportunities for potential buyers and investors. We explain below the benefits and important considerations when investing in a well project. First, it is important to understand what a pre-construction project is. Basically, it is a pre-sale that goes on the market once the plans are approved. Investing in a well consists of purchasing a property before it is 100% completed. That is, it is still in the construction process, hence its name, which responds to a graphic description of what a project is when work begins. One of the main advantages of investing in a pre-construction is the price advantage. Pre-construction properties typically have lower prices than comparable existing properties. Developers often offer 'early bird' prices to attract buyers and secure financing for their project. This means you could secure a property at a price below its potential market value upon completion, which is especially attractive to investors. Buying from a well can represent a saving of between 10% and 20% compared to the final sale price of a brand new unit. Another attractive aspect of pre-construction purchasing is the possibility of customization. Depending on the project and stage of construction, buyers may have the opportunity to choose finishes, fixtures and even the layout of their new home, allowing them to create a space that truly reflects their personal tastes and lifestyle or its ultimate use. as income or temporary income. When you buy a pre-construction funded property, you are investing in the future. If the real estate market in the area of the development is trending upward, there is a good chance that the property will appreciate in value by the time construction is ready. This could result in a significant return on investment. In addition, many developers offer personalized financing plans for well purchases. These plans usually include an initial deposit, fees during the work and a final deposit upon delivery of the property. This financing can be adjusted to each buyer depending on their economic situation and their payment options. Pre-construction properties are new and often incorporate modern designs and up-to-date technology. This means that the property will be built to current codes and standards and will often include energy efficient features, contemporary layouts and the latest amenities. Of course, these benefits don't come without their share of risks and potential drawbacks. It is important to carefully research and consider all aspects before making a pre-construction investment decision. Some of the potential risks include construction delays, changes in the real estate market, and the possibility that the project may not be completed as planned. However, with due diligence and professional advice, investing in well can be a profitable strategy to build your wealth.
