FAQs - How Do I Sell a Property in Latin America?

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with Venture Realty International

Selling your home in another country does not have to be difficult or terrifying.  But there are steps you must take to protect yourself.  Venture Realty Group exists to help you with these steps.  Having the right professional help is important everywhere and even more important in a foreign country.

 

STEP #1  -  GETTING TO KNOW YOUR PROFESSIONALS.

Selling real estate anywhere is a complex task and can be confusing and stressful.  This is even more true for a Seller who wants to sell in another country. Effective communication can make the process much easier for you.  We begin by communicating through email and/or by phone.

House for SaleBefore you sell, you need find the answers to some important questions.  How soon do you want (or need) to sell? Why are you selling?  Are you realistic about market value? Can the home be maintained in th best possible condition for showings?  Do you have tenants and if so are they willing to support your decision to sell?  Are all parties involved in ownership willing to sell and work together? Have you consulted your tax and estate professionals? We will help you with these and any other questions.

STEP #2  -  TAKE YOUR TIME

This is an extremely important decision that you are considering -- we try to help make certain that you are never pressured into selling before you are ready.  We feel it is extremely important to make certain that the professionals we introduce keep your interests in mind at all times and that we are in constant communication with them and with you to oversee things throughout the entire sales process.

STEP #3  -  FINANCING

Financing is rare in Latin America especially for someone from another country so in most case your Buyer will be looking at a cash purchase.  If you are able to provide some type of financing it may make a huge difference in the sale. 

STEP #4  - SELLING THE PROPERTY 

We will introduce you to local professional agents who understand their particular market and have excellent reputations.  We then keep in constant communication with them and with you as you look for properties.  We stay involved throughout the entire sale process to make certain that you receive the best possible terms for your interests.  

STEP #5  -   RECEIVING AN OFFER 

When an offer is received, we review the terms and conditions with your local agent to make certain that there will be no unpleasant surprises and that you have been informed of all the differences from a transaction in your home country.

STEP #6  -  NOW WHAT?

Procedures are different in all countries so we work to keep you informed and protected during the transaction. We will recommend procedures which may or may not be customary in the area where you sell.  We will oversee the transaction and make certain that important matters are covered for settlement and that you do not receive any financial surprises.  This will also include the information about utilities, taxes, homeowner associations, etc. 

STEP #7  -  A LITTLE EXTRA

If at anytime during the sales process, you feel you need extra help, we are willing to come and meet with you, go through documents, meet with any involved parties, etc.
