Rent out my property in Cartagena
Help renting out my property in Karibana Here is what changes in this sector and what to put in writing before handing the property over.
Nothing formal is needed to start the conversation; writing in is enough. What makes a first contact productive is arriving with the basics about the property: address or sector, type and approximate size, how many bedrooms and bathrooms, which floor and whether there is an elevator, parking, whether it sits in a condominium, whether it goes out bare or furnished, when it would be available, whether someone occupies it right now, and what income the owner is hoping for. Recent photographs, even from a phone, move things along. From there the talk turns to the state of the property, what is worth fixing before showing it, how that particular area is moving, and what level of support makes sense in your case; afterward you put in writing what will be done, how you will be informed, and how the work is paid. Ask who will look after the property day to day and through which channel. Since this site publishes no listings, options and answers go straight to whoever writes in. What wastes time is asking for help without settling expectations or availability. Dimare Collection answers these inquiries in Cartagena.
What Karibana is, and what changes there
Karibana is organized around a championship golf course laid out on the sea, with residences built into the course itself. That single fact shapes everything about it as real estate. What exists is not street fabric but a designed enclave where the open space belongs to the layout of the holes, so sightlines, setbacks and the position of a unit relative to the fairway and the water matter more than a street address would. The formats inside such a development typically range from apartments to houses within the perimeter, and each has its own governing documents. Anyone buying should separate what is residential ownership from what is access to the course, because club membership and play rights are a distinct arrangement that does not automatically travel with a deed, and the terms of that arrangement are confirmed case by case. Service dues in a development of this kind cover more than a building, which is relevant when comparing it with a tower on the main road. For renters, Karibana reads as a resort-adjacent address rather than a walkable one; cars are assumed. Whether a particular stage is built or still in progress needs verifying with current paperwork.

Colombian living abroad
This is the case apart. You need no visa and no cédula de extranjerÃa, because your document is the Colombian cédula, and that is exactly what gets neglected: check that the cédula is current and that its details match the registry, because an unrecorded change of marital status or surname stops the deed. The money, though, does come from abroad, so the transfer enters through the regulated exchange market with its declaración de cambio like anyone else's, and if you are not a Colombian tax resident that inflow may have to be registered as foreign investment with the Banco de la República: they are who to ask whether your particular case requires it. What really changes is how you file. Tax residence is not chosen, it is determined by rules, and not being a Colombian tax resident alters what is withheld from you and what you report to the DIAN, both on rent and on sale. For signing from abroad, the Colombian consulate where you live grants the poder. And the tax question is whether a treaty exists between Colombia and the country where you live and what it says about rental income and about ganancia ocasional, with an accountant in each country.
