Chile Property Investment Guide
2013 Edition
2013 Edition
After 3 years of research, hundreds of properties evaluated, and thousands of hours in the field, the 2013 Edition of the Chile Property Investment Guide has been released.
This year's edition identifies 6 new locations (two agricultural, three urban, and one coastal) that represent some of the most powerful investment destinations, not just in Chile, but any where in the world right now. The guide also includes updates on recommendations from last year as well as some practical information about investing in property in Chile.
With a stable economy, strong property rights, and significant mineral and agricultural resources, Chile is one rare example in today's world where the standard of living, along with property prices, will most likely be increasing for many, many years to come (a large part of why I call this part of the world home).

So Who am I?
For those of you who don't know me, my name's Darren Kaiser.
Over the last 10 years I've spent a lot of time traveling the world; 42 out of 50 US states, most of Europe, almost the entire Pacific coast of the Americas, and a four month stint in Africa crossing the Saharan desert. Somewhere along the way, I got involved with journalism and my articles have since appeared in International Man Sovereign Man and I Love Chile. I’ve also been syndicated on Business Insider Australia, The Mendoza Sun, and Casey Research. In mid 2010, I came to Chile in order to do two things. |

1. Look for business/investment opportunities
2. Buy a rural, agricultural property that could work as a "back up plan" residence.
Within just a couple of months on the ground here, I decided to set a new goal for myself; learning as much about, and gaining as much exposure to, the Chilean property market as possible.
Not the Easiest Goal I've Ever Set for Myself
About half of the property scouting I do here is in areas where there aren't any real estate agents so just getting an idea of average market prices and finding comparable properties is a time consuming process.
Finding a competent and reliable lawyer that didn't charge an arm and a leg took several tries, and locating and learning the hours of the local recording offices and canal association headquarters in numerous cities and towns up and down the central regions took a lot of patience.
Upcoming construction/infrastructure projects are also something I have to stay on top of. Monitoring local newspapers, magazines and websites on a regular basis, scanning for new announcements, and staying in close contact with those involved in politics and business down here takes up several hours every week.
Last but not least, in order to actually evalute different parcels and identify where the best properties are located, you need to know average well depths (and hopefully canal flow rates) for multiple zones and have a solid understanding of soil classifications used in Chile.
It hasn't been easy, but really great things never are.
The Chile Property Investment Guide 2013 Edition is the culmination of my work down here so far, the "results" from three years of doing business and on the ground (and in the field) investigations.
I am quite confident that it will be useful to anyone considering buying or investing in property in Chile in the coming years.
