Rent out my property in Cartagena
Rent out my house in Castillo Grande frente al mar Here is what changes in this sector and what to put in writing before handing the property over.
A house follows a different logic from an apartment: there is no building staff watching the entrance or caring for the outside, so the lot, the roof, the garden, the pool if there is one, the water tanks and the perimeter all become part of the conversation with whoever moves in. A workable order is to inspect structure and utility lines, fix what is already broken, gather the property paperwork, settle on a price, show and select, then sign and hand over. The agreement should be specific about who cuts the grass, who services pumps and motors, how often the roof gets checked before the rainy stretch, and how damage is reported. What usually goes wrong is leaving that upkeep ownerless: nobody prunes, nobody clears the gutters, and the decay shows up expensive at the end. In larger houses there is also friction over areas the owner meant to keep. What a house achieves, and how soon, depends on the property, the neighborhood and the figure asked. Dimare Collection works with this kind of property in the city and refers legal questions to Nisimblat Law.
What Castillo Grande frente al mar is, and what changes there
Castillo Grande occupies the residential tip of the peninsula, and here the front line question has an extra layer, because the waterfront is not one thing. Part of the edge looks onto the bay, calm and sheltered, with a long walking promenade and views toward the city; another part faces the open sea. Those two fronts behave differently in swell, in smell, in breeze and in what they demand of a facade, and they are priced and lived differently, which is a distinction that does not arise in the same way further up the peninsula. Compared with the interior streets of the same neighborhood, where houses and low buildings dominate and traffic is minimal, the waterfront carries more pedestrian activity and the newer towers. The interior keeps the quiet that defines the area and still contains single-family homes, a format that has largely disappeared on the front. For renters, this edge reads as residential rather than touristic, and any night-by-night use depends on the rules of the particular building, verified individually.

Mexican buyer
Two currencies are called pesos in this transaction, so always say which one you mean: the contract is signed in Colombian pesos while the money leaves in Mexican pesos. The transfer is converted, enters through the regulated exchange market with its declaración de cambio and is registered as foreign investment with the Banco de la República, which is who to ask about how and in whose name. The poder for signing from abroad is granted before a Colombian consul in the city where you live or before a notario público and then apostilled, and which of the two the Cartagena notarÃa wants is confirmed with that notarÃa and with the CancillerÃa before you fly anywhere to sign. Visa rules and the cédula de extranjerÃa are not the same for every nationality and belong to Migración Colombia: entering without a visa to visit the city and settling in it are two different situations. The tax question to settle with an accountant in each country is whether a treaty exists between Colombia and your country and what it says about rental income and about ganancia ocasional.
