Property investors awake!  Even though house and apartment prices have continued to rise in Colombia, we find that rents have risen even more.  The result is that property investment yields are highly attractive.

Yields on apartments in Santa Barbara, Bogota, are now between 8.9% and 11.4%, which should be very interesting for property investors.  Per square metre prices vary enormously from around US$1,000 to near US$3,000.  Houses cost more and yield slightly less. 

Yields in other areas of Bogota are similarly generous, with yields ranging from 7% to 11%.

Of course, Bogota, has certain disadvantages, and the foreign focus in Columbia is on property investment in Cartagena.
