Why El Salvador
About 4.5% to buy, once. No annual property tax. We make it safe.
A dollar economy, a public registry, and urban property foreigners can own. We check the title, the boundaries and the seller before you commit.
The Case
Cheap to buy, and almost free to keep
- No annual property tax El Salvador is the only country in Central America that doesn’t tax land or property year after year
- Foreigners can own Urban property, with essentially the same rights as a Salvadoran. Rural land carries reciprocity limits
- USD economy No currency risk, no conversion, no exchange controls on the purchase
- A real public registry Every transfer is recorded at the CNR. If it isn’t inscribed there, it didn’t happen
- 3 hours to Miami 5 hours to LA — same timezone as CST, so you can be at the property tomorrow
- Digital-asset framework Modern regulation, and an AML regime aligned with FATF
What buying actually costs
- Transfer tax: 3%, and only on the value above the first $28,571.43
- Registry duties: $0.63 per $100, capped by law at $5,400
- Legal due diligence and closing: about $800 plus VAT and expenses, and 0.95% of the price
Together that is roughly 4.5% of the purchase price, once, before VAT and expenses on the due diligence. Run your own number →
Who We Are
A closing company, not a brokerage
We don’t list properties, we don’t take a commission on the sale, and we never sit on the seller’s side. We handle what happens after you’ve chosen: verification, closing, and the property itself.
- Engaged by you, never by a seller. Never paid by a seller, never sharing an agent’s commission
- A written file on every property before you commit
- Legal review signed by attorneys in the Intersection Legal network, with architects, appraisers and contractors added as each deal requires
- Bilingual and remote-first, built for owners living abroad
