Alza del salario mínimo encarecerá la vivienda VIS y las cuotas de administración: Fedelonjas

TL;DR

  • Fedelonjas argues the 23% minimum wage increase lacks technical support and will harm the economy.
  • Prices for VIS and VIP housing will automatically increase due to indexation to the minimum wage.
  • Families whose VIS/VIP housing is notarized after January 2026 will face higher prices, even if their purchase process began earlier.
  • Condominium administration fees will rise, impacting over 60% of Colombian families living in co-properties.
  • The real estate sector, composed mostly of small businesses, faces increased labor costs which could lead to job losses or increased informality.
  • The increase is predicted to contribute to inflation, reduce formal employment, and encourage informality.
