Rent out my property in Cartagena
Set the rent in Crespo junto al aeropuerto Here is what changes in this sector and what to put in writing before handing the property over.
Rent is not chosen from what the owner needs to collect but from what the sector is absorbing. The reasoning starts by comparing similar properties in the same area, of similar size, with the same count of bedrooms and bathrooms, in equivalent buildings or streets, looking at what actually got rented rather than only at what is being asked. From that baseline you adjust upward for whatever adds value: recent work, good light and cross ventilation, a view, parking, an elevator, security, common areas that function, closeness to work, schools and shops. And you adjust downward for whatever subtracts: a high floor with no elevator, noise, damp, tired finishes, heavy building dues against thin amenities, poor airflow. Whether the place goes out bare or furnished also moves it, as does the time of year it is offered. Revisit the figure if weeks pass with showings but no offers, since that signal usually speaks of value rather than of promotion. The costliest misstep is anchoring on an expectation and leaving the property idle, which drains more than adjusting in time would have.
What Crespo junto al aeropuerto is, and what changes there
Crespo next to the airport is a slice with a logic of its own, and the logic is proximity to the terminal. This is an established residential neighborhood with its own stretch of seafront, pressed against the runway and crossed by everyone entering or leaving the city, which produces a mix found nowhere else: family houses and mid-rise residential buildings alongside apartments used for short stays precisely because reaching a flight takes minutes. That convenience has a counterpart. The approach path imposes height limits on top of ordinary zoning, which changes what a lot can become, and aircraft noise is part of daily life in a way that varies street by street and is worth experiencing before deciding. Compared with the rest of Crespo away from the terminal, the airport edge is noisier, better connected and more oriented toward transient use. For sellers, the buyer pool includes people choosing logistics over quiet. For renters, it suits short professional stays and arrivals, while whether a given building accepts stays by the night follows its own rules.

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.
