Tour of My New Home in Bogota, Colombia

www.nomadcapit...
I recently purchased an apartment in Bogota, Colombia, and I wanted to show it to you.
Located in the best residential neighborhood in Colombia’s capital, this property cost 562,000,000 Colombian pesos, or about $160,000. At about $1,500 per meter, it’s a bargain for the neighborhood but a bit above what you might pay down the street.
Rental yields in Bogota can reach as high as 10%, which is about what this apartment would get after a basic renovation.
What do you think about the apartment? Leave a COMMENT below and sound off.

Keep the lighting at 2700-2900 kelvins. Warmer yellow light is good for your spirits. And you’ll look much better in the full-length mirror. 😉

Fantastic apartment! Great find! Please gut this apartment entirely if possible Salvage cupboards and window wood pelmets. Keep archway. 1. Remove all false ceilings 2..raise doors to the ceiling that you can pass through. 3. Drop in sound proof glass that are able to be opened (you have no balcony- fresh air will be wanted perhaps at night to avoid cabin fever. 4. If you are allowed to open up windows to full ceiling to floor windows...do it. Will allow more natural light/views in. 5.knockout maids quarters and the kitchen and start again + separate laundry) do a casual meal area , keep gas cooktop. 6. Completely redo lighting (recessed lighting) and any lighting to highlight art work in the future, position accordingly. 7. Resand floors and match up with the salvaged cupboards. 8.If internal walls are movable (knock them all out) and rebuild with the layout you actually want + add a bath space. 9. Add security and recessed tv space in each bedroom. 10.Front entry way needs built in space for shoes etc 11.Is their parking? If possible build a secure storage cage there for bikes seasonal stuff. No clutter in that apartment. Ultra clean ultra simple with a touch of original character. 11. Right side on loungeroom (facing view) needs some kind of reflective art or mirror to balance off the length of the room and pull more light in to give illusion of wider room. Thats my two bits worth-love to see a video afterwards. Great Find.

Keep the arch - nice architectural touch. Keep the closets. Totally redo everything in the bathrooms. Recessed lighting. Remove the false ceilings in the kitchen and bathrooms. New kitchen cabinets throughout - love your bar idea in front of the kitchen windows. Radiant heat floors, always nice. Upgrade the windows. Use the maid quarters as an awesome storage room. Amazing views. Emerald green and wood, gorgeous. Will be beautiful and cozy when you are finished.

[@aungar2403]

I have arches. Hated them at first. Now I have found that purchasing furniture with rounded or circular effect adds interest.

[@craiggibson9725]

I have been living in Cali, Colombia for 10 years and I love Colombia. Bogota is a bit cold for me but I can see the attraction for a higher class of life. Cali has much more reasonable prices but it is a lower strata city. There are other great cities to purchase real estate also. As far as the home that you have purchased, I believe that it was a great choice. I see that you want to raise ceilings, and I agree even though Colombians are shorter than you are. I would take out all of the floors and replace them with the same ceramic tile, but different tile for the bathrooms. I would change all of the fixtures in the bathrooms especially the sinks and the toilets. Get rid of the arch, it is an older design. For the ceramic and the bath fixtures, find a Corona store. I am sure there is a giant show room type store in Bogota. You will find great ceramic tile and great fixtures. Grival is a bath fixture that is also a great brand. Be very careful who you hire. There are some excellent contractors in Colombia, but there are some shady ones too. In Colombia, things are less regulated so there are a lot of un-qualified contractors. Good Luck and welcome to Colombia.

[@shockcityrocker]

DEFINITELY keep the arch! I used to stay regularly in Bogota because my gf lived there, but we ultimately ended up renting a great apartment in Medellin / El Poblado area. Have a lot of great memories in Colombia 🤟

[@trevorhofmann1562]

Reminds me of my old apartment in Alto de Pineheiros, Sao Paulo, Brazil. It had the arch too, plus some wonderful glossy tile inserts embedded within the walls. Loved that place. Keep the arch, as long as you don't end up hitting your head on its lower extremities. Seems like a decent place for a great price. Please do an update when you've finished with the renovations.

[@OceanicDistribution]

The reason the ceiling is lower in the kitchen and bathrooms is because they have the plumbing for the corresponding wet areas for the apartment upstairs in them, unlikely you can raise them unfortunately. If you could knock out the wall between the kitchen and maids quarters you could make that into a really spacious eat in kitchen.

[@davechan4262]

80's apartment? You're right indeed. The kitchen is the giveaway, still in the 80's. I see you very excited about the property, congratulations! I really like your plans in decorating the apartment with Colombian art. Like the view of green from the livingroom window!

[@jenniferlee7167]

I would love to see this apartment post-renovation. I do not like the low ceilings or the kitchen either. Agree that the bathrooms need work. Glad this is in a neighborhood you like.

[@craigcmurphy]

Turn the little bath in to a laundry. Install a lower cabinet where the storage closet is with a countertop for folding, and a clothes bar above for hanging clothes to dry. I’d also recommend building an ultra secure closet with a strong lock for storing items while you’re gone. Include an electric outlet inside so you can house the equipment for a small wireless security cam/motion sensor so you can keep an eye on the property while you’re gone. Also, having a wireless all-in-one printer/scanner/copier on premises can’t be beat.

[@aphilippinesadventure9184]

I do like Colombia- first was there over 20 years ago. You would love what $160k can get you in the provinces in the Philippines. Bohol is our little Eden, with white sand beaches and warm blue water just minutes from our front door.

Nice seeing the detail of the property. Love Colombia and especially Bogota, maybe even something in Gautape near Medellin - stunning views and great exotic neighborhoods.

[@SolomFoz]

I liked the expression of man cave 😆 I think this apartment is a bargain because it has a very bad design in a very good neighborhood more than the reason of politics in Colombia. I felt suffocated just from seeing your head touches the ceiling. So may I suggest something crazy. You buy the apartment right above or below yours, then cut your ceiling in some rooms especially those you spend most of time in. You will get more of the outside sun, more of room and more ceiling, and moreover, if you decided to rent it later, I think you will have the right target customers for the right place.

[@AussieAnnihilation]

I've been very interested in Colombia for a long time due to cost of living, I originally became interested in the country and learning the language as a safety net if for whatever reason I could not afford to live in Australia anymore. But now I'm seeing it as great investment potential, especially when Venezuela recovers from its crisis and the petro wealth spreads through all of Latin America, especially its neighbouring Colombia will be lifted first. I lived there for 3 months to learn the language, and I intend on returning.

[@talent103]

Is Colombia really that much lower cost of living? For me it would be as I am in NYC but I think there are cheaper places.

[@deboraleggerini5729]

"When Venezuela recovers from its crisis"? Good luck with that one. It is something that a developed country person would say but me, as a Brazilian, can tell you that Venezuela (and South America to an extent) is in a much deeper hole. Talk to a traditional Venezuelan for 5 minutes and the n you'll see. Consciousness created reality.

[@deboraleggerini5729]

@Gap Rame Mlon Eusk Sure, what I mean is that it is a culturally divided country - fueled by its government - and where the general culture has been "the State has to provide me everything. Not a bit entrepreneurial and business minded. It is not encouraged to go fishing but to receive the fish by the government. On top of that you have a divisive, corrupted, lying, cheating, manipulative government led by a bus driver - no offense to bus drives but you should do what you're continuosly prepared for. Very little educated people that depends heavily on coal oil. A valuable natural resource but needs the least of expertise to get extracted so Venezuela is running out of oil for consumption. There are no shortcuts in life. You gotta do your homework.

[@ijaen]

Gap Rame Mlon Eusk @debora Leggerini As a Venezuelan I must support everything Deborah said, even if Venezuela gets a new, shiny government that does everything that needs to do without resistance it will take no less than 20 years to take Venezuela to the same level of maturity you see in Colombia and Brazil. Yes, it will be a huge opportunity for business as the country needs everything to be done again so money in hand I would invest in Venezuela after some sort of financial security is in place but living in Venezuela? I’m sorry but no. Some social issues will stick around for a couple decades. Debora is right on point, congratulations for knowing my country so well, I should know more about Brazil as appreciation. Having said all this, Venezuela does have some entrepreneurs going on but it is smaller and do not represent a trend that you can rely on. A few success stories in Caracas do not take the country to the next level.

[@krugmeup2162]

Debora Leggerini yep you can’t fix socialism

For that price you could get a 91SQM brand new condo in a stunning area of Poblado in Medellin (Avenida Las Palmas) with 2 balconies, much higher floor with better views, pools, 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, three air con units, and zero need to renovate. Plus the MDE condos have stunning views and no traffic noise (at least the ones I've shown interest in). The only thing that appeals to me about the apartment shown in Bogota is the rents if those have been verified as legitimate with tax records from the previous owner. Also, as everyone knows, most condo units in Colombia are not well maintained (common grounds / exterior) so buying something newer is generally advised.

I get altitude sickness EVERY TIME I'm in Bogota. It's like constant dizziness, as if I were drunk, and a mild headache that goes away with aspirin (the headache goes away...NOT the dizziness). I get it within minutes of landing there and does not go away until I fly or drive to an area with normal altitude levels. I live at sea level in the Dominican Republic, and prior to that I lived in Miami, FL, another sea level city.

This apartment speaks to me. Especially the Office!

Keep the circular arch.

Bro I’m from Bogota and now I’m living in Texas😂.

Awesome apartment and scenery. You have so many good decorating ideas. Love to see it after it's painted and furnished. Good luck to you and Mrs. H.

I know it is not fashionable to have an arched door way, but I like it. Keep it. Fix the baseboards, light fixtures, and maybe the floors. Um no. I changed my mind. Love the wood floors. The maids quarters are strange with that claustraphobic shower. Other wise, nice suite.

Keep the arches

[@davidhernandez5145]

Keep the arched hallway, my apt has it and everyone loves it. We painted the arch a sky blue and it looks like you're entering the hates of heaven 😂

Oh and I'm also 6'4

Love this video and would like to see one of your property in Tbilisi. I think Colombia seems like a great market!

[@RussellMKay]

Great potential! Keep the arch, completely gut the kitchen and back maid area for new kitchen with storage. Master bath need complete overhaul. Keep the wood and add local accent and color. TV in the bedroom? You are a newly wed! You will need a TV in about 10 years......

I feel claustrophobic in there

[@ulrap1202]

Yeah and it's empty, imagine how you will feel once it's furnished.
