BUYING REAL ESTATE IN CHILE
Buying a property in Chile is quite a complex procedure and should always be accompanied by an experienced advisor and lawyer. Foreigners can buy real estate in Chile almost without any restrictions, even when they are traveling the country as tourists. They have to present their individual Chilean tax number (called R.U.T. , Rol único tributario), which one gets also as a tourist with proof of a local address.
Local real estate agents offer their services, sales signs on the street point to properties, some webpages are specialized in offering real estate, and last but not least you will find current offers published in newspapers. It is a good idea to get your perspective of the market situation. Data about sold properties are not available.
Before signing a contract, even before making an offer, a lot of documentation about or for the property should be investigated. The land register describing the property's title does not contain all the necessary information. Some information has to be checked for 30 years before.
There are different land registers for property rights and water rights. The notary does not have any obligation to advise, he is only responsible for the legalization and registration of the purchase contract.
PROPERTY OF THE MONTH
Gorgeous Residence at a privileged private location.
Set on nearly two hectares on a secluded road between Pucón and Lake Caburgua, this amazing homestead offers a great opportunity to secure an outstanding example of prime real estate. The three-storey grand home with a living area of 521m2 guarantees a unique lifestyle. The ground floor impresses with its elegant living room, the fireplace, and its breathtaking cathedral ceiling, from there leading into a spacious, stylish, and practical kitchen. Two double bedrooms with a shared bathroom, an office and an additional family room offer plenty of room to spread out. To complete the picture, a guest toilet, a storage room, and a laundry with an additional bathroom should be mentioned. A double garage has internal access to this area as well as other service rooms. An architecturally well-designed open staircase made from native timber invites you to discover the second floor. The upstairs features two spacious double bedrooms with an integrated bathroom each. The master bedroom has a splendid view of the Villarrica volcano and a balcony to enjoy the evening sun. A cosy corner is furnished with armchairs for watching TV on lazy days.
But wait there’s more. Find your way to the downstairs floor and you will be surprised by two large hobby rooms that can serve multiple purposes. Wine lovers might be more interested in the wine cellar. But without any doubt in this huge mansion, all members of the family should find their favourite spot. The well-established ground with gentle contour blends in with the natural environment and borders the Liucura River. As you would expect, the building materials are of the highest quality, all the technical equipment is sophisticated, and there are large tanks for water from the own well and gas. The entire property is in top condition.
