How can I rent out my apartment in Morros 3?

Rent out my property in Cartagena

Rent out my apartment in Morros 3 Here is what changes in this sector and what to put in writing before handing the property over.

Renting out an apartment for a year or longer starts with looking at it the way someone who will actually live there will: floors, bathrooms, kitchen, any sign of moisture, and whether the air conditioning really works. The next front is the building itself, because life in a condominium runs on rules: dues paid up, internal regulations, parking and common area use, moving hours. Only then come pricing, promotion and choosing the occupant, and the written agreement and physical handover come last. Put in writing the list of whatever stays inside, the condition it is received in, who covers building dues and utilities, and the channel the two sides will use to talk. The most common slip is assuming the building will accept any use or any number of residents, and handing over keys with no report and no photographs. Pre inspection also gets skipped: one leak or one tired water heater turns into an argument by the second month. Outcomes depend on the unit, the sector and the asking price, so no timeline can be promised. In Cartagena, Dimare Collection walks owners through this, and legal matters sit with Nisimblat Law.

What Morros 3 is, and what changes there

This is one of the numbered developments within the Morros and Manzanillo corridor, the coastal stretch of closed residential complexes north of the airport. Numbered names in this band usually signal successive stages or related phases by the same promoter, which matters as a product distinction: different stages of a single development can differ in age, in the shared areas they include and in how far they sit from the shoreline, even when they carry a common name. In every case what is acquired is a unit under the condominium regime, with collective ownership of common areas and an assembly setting dues and rules, so the file that governs the decision is the building's own. The characteristics of this particular stage, whether it is finished or still being built, and whether anything in it can be offered are determined one at a time from current documents rather than from the name. What surrounds it along this band is also uneven, with built complexes beside parcels at earlier stages, and seasonal use of a unit depends on the rules adopted inside that specific condominium.

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 notaría wants is confirmed with that notaría and with the Cancillería before you fly anywhere to sign. Visa rules and the cédula de extranjería 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.
