In a context of incipient real estate recovery after years of recession, the end of the exchange rate restrictions on the property sector is generating expectations among developers and buyers. With greater exchange rate predictability and the possibility of channeling savings into bricks and mortar without restrictions, the market for pre-built projects is once again an attractive option for those looking to invest in square footage from the start of construction.



In Villa Crespo , one of the Buenos Aires neighborhoods that has transformed the most in the last decade, there are currently at least 20 real estate developments for pre-sale, with prices starting, according to the official dollar exchange rate of the day, at $35,700,000 (US$30,000) and exceeding $297,500,000 (US$250,000) , depending on the characteristics of the project, the location and the services included.

An opportunity in motion​

The rise of underground developments in Villa Crespo is due to multiple factors: its strategic location — between Palermo , Chacarita , and Caballitothe commercial revitalization brought about by the opening of the Audiovisual District, and the arrival of new culinary and cultural offerings that have renewed the neighborhood's identity.

This is the cheapest Argentine city to buy or rent an apartment.

In the new economic climate, with a market seeking signs of stability and clear rules, underway projects appear as an option to diversify savings, dollarize capital, and participate in the revival of the brick and mortar industry. As always, the key will be choosing developments with support, compliance with deadlines, and high-quality construction.
