Real estate financing

Colombia offers several mortgage options for buying homes or commercial property. These are the main ones.

Traditional mortgage
The most common: for new or used homes, construction or land. Fixed or variable rate, terms generally 5 to 30 years, and typical financing of 70% to 80% of the value (some lenders up to 90%). Requires an affordability check, credit history and a property appraisal.
UVR-indexed mortgage
Indexed to inflation, usually with a lower rate than peso loans, although the debt can grow in nominal terms if inflation is high. It can offer lower initial instalments.
Housing leasing
The bank buys the property and you use it by paying a monthly fee with an option to buy at the end of the contract. Terms of 10 to 20 years, no down payment and possible tax benefits.
Social-interest housing (VIS)
For homes whose value does not exceed the limit set by the Government. May include national or family compensation fund subsidies, subject to income requirements and not having owned a home before.
Mortgage for non-residents
Some lenders offer loans to Colombians living abroad who want to buy in Colombia, on terms similar to traditional ones and possibly with extra guarantees or deposits.
Private investment funds
Financing with tailored terms and more flexibility on terms and amounts, normally at higher rates and with a more detailed review of the investment.

When choosing, compare interest rate, term, currency (pesos or UVR) and tax implications across several lenders. At ALGI PROPERTY we help you find the most suitable financing for you. This information is a general guide and conditions change: confirm them with your lender.

Real estate insurance

Protecting your investment is key to your peace of mind. We cover the contingencies that can affect a residential or commercial property.

  • All-risk property

    Damage or loss to the structure from natural disasters, fire, explosions or vandalism.

  • Rental

    For landlords: cover for unpaid rent, damage to the property and legal assistance.

  • Construction

    For building and renovation works: cover for works in progress and liability during construction.

  • Home contents

    Appliances, jewellery, furniture and belongings, whether you own or rent.
