The joint venture endeavor with Grupo Inmobiliario y Constructor Valor S.A. will develop and market condominium properties targeting the country&#8217;s growing middle-class sector.<\/p>\n<p>Paladin is demonstrating its confidence in Colombia&#8217;s for-sale multi-family market with an equity commitment of $15 million for PALVAL, and VALOR is adding to the investment with a $5 million contribution. All told, the $20 million of equity will allow for the development of approximately 1,000 residential units valued at an aggregate $100 million. It&#8217;s a timely pursuit.<\/p>\n<p>The increasingly strong demand for condominium accommodations is hardly limited to the U.S.; the same trend is afoot in Colombia, particularly in the country&#8217;s high-density urban areas.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Young populations are entering the workforce and there is increasing access to mortgage financing,&#8221; Fred Gortner, managing director with Paladin, told <em>Commercial Property Executive<\/em>. &#8220;And there is steady economic growth, which is leading to rising prosperity and the improved security situation is a big part of that success story.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s nothing like a desirable comfort level to reel in a commitment from a homebuyer. As per a 2012 report by the U.S. State Department&#8217;s Overseas Security Advisory Council, &#8220;Security in Colombia has improved significantly in recent years, including in tourist and business travel destinations like Cartagena and Bogot\u00e1.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>And Bogot\u00e1 is certainly a target market for PALVAL. Armed with VALOR&#8217;s vast experience in delivering projects in the city, PALVAL is placing a high priority on the market, where Paladin already has a presence. One year ago, Paladin chose the city for its entr\u00e9e into Colombia through Paladin Realty Latin America Investors III L.P. fund&#8217;s establishment Pali-Trocha, a homebuilding platform venture with La Trocha, Ltd.\u00a0 The investment vehicle focuses on upper-income residential infill projects and boutique hotels in Bogot\u00e1. Already, Pali-Trocha has kicked off the development of two housing projects, which together, are 50 percent pre-sold.<\/p>\n<p>While Bogot\u00e1 has clearly been, and remains to be, of great interest to Paladin, the company is not ignoring the rest of Colombia, which is currently, as Gortner describes, an &#8220;investor-friendly environment for foreign capital.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Growing demand, a positive foreign-investor climate&#8211;it may very well be a perfect storm for multi-family development in Colombia. It&#8217;s an environment that has long-term potential for PALVAL, Gortner believes. &#8220;Supply-side constraints&#8211;a function of a chroming dearth of capital in the region&#8211;plus Paladin&#8217;s focus on infill locations make overdevelopment unlikely relative to growing demand,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Like us on facebook:<\/strong>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pages\/Commercial-Property-Executive\/258033884191\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pages\/Commercial-Property-Executive\/258033884191<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Paladin Realty Partners, a Los Angeles-based firm founded for the purpose of investing in Latin American real estate, has placed Colombia high on its radar with the founding of the PALVAL Homebuilding Platform. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":969,"featured_media":1004066507,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21782,16,21783,21742],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1004066506","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-development","category-international","category-investment","category-latest"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v23.4 (Yoast SEO v24.6) -
