What is a project "in the well"
It is a pre-sale of a property
that goes on the market once the plans are approved.
Investing in a well consists of buying an apartment before it is 100% completed.
In other words, it is still in
the "well" process
, hence its name, which responds to a graphic description of what a project is when construction work begins.
When the objective is to
invest in the long term
, the most beneficial alternative is to opt for this type of project.
Among the
advantages
it stands out:

saving of between 10% and 20%
compared to the final sale price of a brand new unit.

growing area
, where the value will grow due to having bought at the well and also due to the development of the place.

How to invest in well apartment projects?
"When investing in a venture, it is entered with an initial advance in dollars, close to 30%, to cover the value of the land / land, and then it
is financed with quotas in pesos adjusted by the CAC
(index that updates the quotas of works at cost and / or trusts) that accompany the real estate development ", described Molina de Zonaprop.
"What generates a great attraction at the investment level is that, although it
is paid in pesos
,
when selling is achieved an update of that investment in dollars
, added to the percentage of profit in relation to profitability," he added.
"
The less advanced
the project is, the
more opportunities
there will be in relation to price negotiation. In a context in which there is no access to mortgage credit and there is a restriction on the purchase of dollars, there are numerous incentives to enter a venture from well, "said Molina.
