Property Investor information for: Ecuador
The country of Ecuador has 22 provinces, 10 spreading out from the highlands, 6 in the Amazon region, a further 5 in the coastal areas and the Galapagos islands.
Within these 22 provinces the country is divided up into 3 distinct regions which are straddled with the Andes Mountain range, the backbone of Ecuador that traverses the country from north to south as well as dividing it into the western coastal lowlands, the Sierra or Highlands, the Oriente or Amazon (eastern jungles of the higher Amazon) and the Archipelago of Galapagos forming the fourth region respectively.
Real estate assets for sell or rent are always available anywhere in Ecuador including apartments, buildings, land, offices, houses, commercial properties, etc. Real estate properties in Ecuador are actually low due to past economic problems. After Dollarization and a few banks closed, some Ecuadorians still have not recovered their money. It is also important to consider those Ecuadorians that have recovered their money now, they are seeking to invest what they've recovered in property.
In Ecuador selling prices remain stable, or even low. Buying properties is a good opportunity today and less risky than other type of investments. The crisis in Ecuador is over now and actually demand exists driven by the same Ecuadorians that live outside of the country (over one million immigrants). Also, small and medium "entrepreneurs" who need self-financing, as well as institutions.
