Real Estate Lawyer in Colombia

Colombia is an absolutely lovely country to buy real estate in (feel free to read my market analysis here), but using a real estate lawyer when making a transaction is non-negotiable.

Many things can go wrong when buying real estate in Colombia

 Just to name a few:

  • Liens on the property.

  • Mortgages on the property.

  • Past transactions that were not completed properly, which could lead to claims later on.

  • Not all owners agreeing to the sale.

  • The sellers not having gone through the proper courts to process their inheritance.

  • Outright fraud.
  • A house that needs to be legalized / was build illegally

  • Not bringing in the money properly into Colombia, without using the correct forms, which means repatriating the money later on might be impossible.

Get a good real estate lawyer before moving forward with any real estate transaction in Colombia. Also, be careful before using the lawyer that is recommended by your real estate agent. There is a potential for a conflict of interest. It’s always much safer to use your own real estate lawyer in Colombia.

My lawyer Alan and his team will take good care of you. He is a US-based attorney that has a law firm in both New York and in Colombia. His team is used to working with foreigners and helping them with their real estate transactions and to obtain residency in Colombia.
