TL;DR

  • The Colombian housing market is experiencing increased internationalization due to growing remittances and non-resident buyer participation.
  • Sales to non-residents rose to 12.1% by November 2025, compared to 8.8% in April, alongside remittance inflows surpassing $10.8 billion.
  • Remittances have significantly boosted investment capacity in housing, with a direct correlation between increased remittances and housing sales.
  • Foreign buyers, primarily from the United States and Spain, and non-resident Colombians are concentrating their purchases in specific regions.
  • Differences in housing characteristics, particularly size and distribution, were observed between resident and non-resident buyers, especially in the non-subsidized housing segment.
