Medellin Penthouse Investment Case Study

[@BrianPhobos]

This place is awesome! Unbelievable views. Great video!

[@Higgs000Boson]

What a nice video. Ladislas, thank you for giving us a peek into these opportunities!

[@jgm3620]

Amazing apartment. I love the decoration, very good taste. I lived for 2 months in Medellin. i really apreciate the city and feel very safe and enjoy enjoy the lifestyle. The people are very pleasant and easy to talk to

[@irynasymonenko2565]

Wow! One of the best view in Medellin🤩

[@WolfBoehme]

Thanks for publishing this video. It would be terrific if you could do follow up videos on Hungary, Turkey and many of the other locations you've featured in the past year. Even if you could interview the real estate agents via Skpe and ask them what has changed in the market since you highlighted their city/country, it would be very interesting.

I need an investment property like that one 🤩

[@TheWanderingInvestor]

We all do 😅

You have to pay taxes in Colombia if you stay for longer than six months, right? I'm currently in Colombia but don't want to pay the 30% income taxes there and American taxes

[@TheWanderingInvestor]

The Colombian tax net is not pretty. I would definitely try to stay away from it.

[@BlazeGuitarLessons]

@@TheWanderingInvestor which means don't stay in Colombia more than 6 months a year, right?

[@TheWanderingInvestor]

@@BlazeGuitarLessons Generally speaking for Colombia yes, but speak to a tax advisor for your specific case.

[@BlazeGuitarLessons]

@@TheWanderingInvestor that's what I thought. Thanks for the info!

This guy Mauricio has great taste in apartments. I would like to buy something but i keep letting time pass. It's intersting to know that airbnb can be a bit complicated here. I have not tranfered money here yet. I was waiting for the exchange rate to change a bit in my favor. Who do i contact and what services to you guys offer?

[@TheWanderingInvestor]

Great. You can get in touch with Mauricio and his team here: thewanderinginvestor.com/services/international-real-estate-services/my-favourite-real-estate-agent-in-medellin-colombia/

[@agatyou11]

Thanks for your content, I spent christmas there and I dont find the same figures than you as regards then rents andI saw various nice 200m2+ flat furnished appartment for around 1500$ a month in el poblado, could you tell us how you founds the 3300$/month figure it looks way too optimistic to me :)

[@TheWanderingInvestor]

I don’t know where you found equivalent 200m2 for $1,500 furnished in peak season. You barely get anything for this price these days. Unless you go for local market rentals, but then you need residency. $3,300 is based on the actual rent being paid by the tenant.

[@amj3997]

Wow stunning place

[@BoydJones]

Excellent video and analysis! But why not just put funds in high-interest CDs in neighboring Ecuador in USD?

[@TheWanderingInvestor]

Thanks. Different underlying risks.

[@soundslight7754]

Great video. This is an amazing property, it's rented long term but the agent/owner pays for utilities, internet and so on! This is a bit unusual!

[@MyLatinLife]

Good intel 👍

[@b4bmm]

Great content. Is a mortgage/funding of some sort a possibility?

[@TheWanderingInvestor]

Thanks. No, not possible locally.

[@AccordingtoWarren]

How do the numbers calculated take into account the Airbnb platform service charge?

[@TheWanderingInvestor]

These numbers are net of the Airbnb service charges.

how to avoid scopalamine in colombia?

[@TheWanderingInvestor]

Don’t be stupid

[@amandareale2681]

Can you put the country name on your videos as well.

[@xetradax2679]

why i have a feeling Ladislas following A. Hendersons path?

[@Higgs000Boson]

Ladislas is much more advanced than A. Henderson - he is actually doing investing, while A. Henderson is mostly selling others a dream of living in exotic places and paying less in taxes.

​@@Higgs000BosonAndrew has actually got a property portfolio spread around the world, but his main income is indeed consulting.

[@Higgs000Boson]

@@neonomad1939 Andrew himself mentioned that (some/most of?) those properties are lifestyle properties, he doesn't rent them out and never even showed any figures on those deals. I honestly would not consider it investing (nothing wrong with that though!).

[@theblackinvestor3990]

Very interesting so 60k down? For 30k a year cash flow. I want one for real for real.

[@TheWanderingInvestor]

No mortgages available

[@theblackinvestor3990]

@@TheWanderingInvestor Okay you should check out the Bahamas. We are a tax free country. Im selling my condo in toronto. Thinking of acquiring some apartment buildings. The cap rates are high out there. Some luxury rentals as well but very strong local renting.

[@TheWanderingInvestor]

@@theblackinvestor3990 Thank you

[@gregp7605]

OK. I lived there for over a year and I never felt safe. Rents are skyrocketing, Govt is cracking down on ST rentals, and they are making it more difficult to get citizenship. Sorry, many gringos getting robbed, kidnapped, etc. Lots of reality missing here. Do your homework please

[@micomarinas2753]

did the Columbian government solve the problem of chiid trafiking sold as a child prostition den?

[@defrank1870]

Yup. They got rid of the investor visa because everyone is moving there and converting things to AirBnb. Crime will probably increase and the housing bubble will pop at some point. I don't think the Government is pro open borders like the US.

[@aahsimovieprojects]

agreed, Medellin is not the dream it's made out to be and soon the market is gonna come crashing down. It's an unsafe and unstable country with a very questionable political climate at this point in time. There aren't droves of people that are gonna be paying 3300 USD a month rent after all these work from home jobs come to an end which is already happening. For 3300 you can get a decent place in Miami, why would you pay that in Colombia?
