Latin America Real Estate: Top Markets

Sao Paulo remains most attractive real estate market in Latin America.

BY LATINVEX STAFF

Mexico City tops commercial real estate investments in Latin America, but Sao Paulo is the city with most potential, according to research by real estate company Jones Lang LaSalle.

Interestingly enough, while Argentine capital Buenos Aires ranks among the three most attractive commercial real estate markets in Latin America, it ranks among the bottom six in terms of actual investments the past three years.

Meanwhile, Costa Rican capital San Jose sees the opposite trend. While it managed to rank fourth in Latin America in terms of relative level of commercial real estate investments the past three years, it only ranks 23 out of 30 Latin American cities in terms of attractiveness.
