FAQ
What does USD 200,000 buy in Lima?
About 95 m² at ~2106 USD/m² (offer price, grade B).
How much does a foreign investor pay?
Roughly 5% effective on rent for the non-domiciled and 5% on the gain at sale: one of the lightest regimes in the region. Property tax follows the Municipal Taxation Law.
Are there restrictions for foreigners?
Not in urban areas; the Constitution restricts foreign ownership within 50 km of the border. Buying in Lima is direct.
Is repatriation free?
Yes, Peru allows free remittance of capital and income, converting from soles to dollars. The main friction is political risk and real-value performance, not capital exit.
