Cheng Le\u00f3n, believes that we are currently at a very good time to invest in real estate in Panama as future prices could show an upward trend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Panamanian real estate market has shown positive signs which was appreciated by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fiabci.org\/\">FIABCI<\/a> (International Federation of Real Estate Professionals). ACOBIR is a member of this federation which is made up of 70 countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Consolidation of Preferential Interest<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to Cheng Le\u00f3n, after evaluating the performance of the real estate market, both of local and foreign buyers, it&#8217;s important to continue with the dynamism in the range of preferential interests, for homes with costs between $ 120,000 and $ 180,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The increase in the preferential section has boosted developments in the city center and allows the local to acquire homes in fairly central areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once employment stabilizes, the dynamics of mortgage loans can be resumed, because the market depends on financing from Panamanian banks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the case of the foreign buyer, he explained that this type of investment should be consolidated, with a view to a ten-year horizon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He said that despite the challenges imposed on Panama, &#8220;it is a country in democracy, with a rule of law and political stability, compared to other nations in the region.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This set of characteristics favors investments, as well as the use of the dollar, geographical position and a favorable legislative framework such as the Multinational Company Headquarters Law (SEM) and the Law of the Special Regime for the Establishment and Operation of Multinational Companies related to manufacturing (EMMA).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Market in Figures<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The president of Acobir explained that the union develops annual studies to measure the behavior of the real estate industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In relation to the total inventory available (includes units ready to occupy, in pre-sale and under construction), he said that it was positively reduced at the end of 2020 versus 2019 even as the pace of sales decreased.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From 29,000 units in inventory in 2019, it stood at 24,000 units in 2020, a difference of 5,000 fewer homes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This reduction was fundamentally due to the decision to stop the projects in pre-sale due to the circumstance of the pandemic, with which these units were removed from the inventory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cheng Le\u00f3n highlights that 2021 reflects a reactivation, at a higher rate than 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition, buyers have the option of renting and then purchasing the property or buying the project flat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Prices have been maintained, although there is concern about the impact of the increase in freight on the costs of construction materials, mostly imported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They still do not have definitive projections regarding the impact of this inflationary reality of the material on the construction price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The president of the Board of Directors of ACOBIR (Panamanian Association of Real Estate Brokers and Promoters),  Francisco R.
