The 2026 Acquisition Roadmap
Due Diligence & Title Search
Verification of the property in the National Registry (Registro Nacional) to ensure it is free of liens, encumbrances, or annotations.
SUGEF & Escrow Setup
Opening an escrow account with a SUGEF-registered agent. This is critical for 2026 anti-money laundering compliance during international transfers.
Closing & Incorporation
Execution of the Sale & Purchase Agreement. We often recommend holding assets in a Sociedad Anónima (S.A.) for simplified future transfers.
