FROM BUYING TO BUILDING
Titel
Each buyer receives a notarized property title. This title consists of several documents that the notary will hand over to you: a site plan with the property's geographical data, a certificate from the municipality and the land registry office, the notarized purchase agreement, and various official payment receipts.
The purchase agreement includes the “Reglamento de Copropiedad,” a community code under Paraguayan law. You can download the “Reglamento de Copropiedad” (Community Property Code) from our website. Contact form You will receive both the articles of association and the purchase and construction contracts in Spanish and German.
Purchase contracts are generally due in full upon signature, and construction payments are made based on the progress of the project. You will receive a legal Paraguayan invoice for each payment transaction. The contract documents and the official invoice make bank transfers from abroad to our accounts in Paraguay easy.
Building
Our clients usually know what kind of house they want to build on their property. With the plan in mind, they position the house among the existing trees and fine-tune the orientation of the facades and windows. We help you with this and share our experience with natural shading and wind and rain exposure.
Typically, the construction contract for the house is concluded in parallel with the purchase contract for the land. We build the houses designed by architect Gernot Minke, i.e., those with green vaults made of clay bricks, with our own construction crew. Traditional houses are designed by a local architect according to individual specifications, and construction is carried out by a reliable local construction company.
A down payment is due upon signing the construction contract, with further payments being made as construction progresses. We will keep you regularly updated on the progress throughout the entire process, even if you are unable to attend in person.
We know that moving into your new home is a significant step, so we'll do everything we can to ensure your house is completed on time. However, please be aware that time moves differently in Paraguay. "Mañana," translated as "tomorrow," is often used here in the context of "someday." Our craftsmen and suppliers are warm, helpful people who deliver good quality, just not always on time. We've learned that there's no point in getting upset about it. On the contrary, if you bring composure and a friendly smile, many things will be resolved to everyone's satisfaction.
If you would like to stay with us during the construction phase, we will try to find you rental accommodation in Valle Tucán.
