The brokers and partners have more than 30 years of experience in real estate services.
IVI is a one-stop shop for those interested in participating in the real estate market in Colombia or abroad. Their knowledge of local and international regulation and their experience in development, sales and promotion make them one of the most solid and reliable guides in their markets. IVI has a wide range of clients from Real Estate Investment Trusts to corporations and high-net-worth individuals. They have developed hotels and multifamily projects and have participated in the sale of special-purpose real estate such as hospitals and industrial plants.
Build-to-suit (BTS) developments are becoming increasingly popular in Colombia as the economy continues to grow year after year and a broader, consumer-based economy emerges. This economic growth drives demand for more manufacturing, production, warehouse and distribution facilities in the marketplace. Not surprisingly, nearly half of the current real estate activity is in and around the capital, Bogota, reports IVI President Eduardo Lara.
IVI services include sale and lease transactions, construction, financing, legal services, marketing, appraisals, property management and trusts. IVI is ready and able to assist their CORFAC colleagues and their clients in Colombia and the region.
