Welcome to episode #13 of RealtyCast Global – a global connection to all things real estate, hosted by Hugh Gilliam, president of Global Property Pros.

Discover the evolving real estate landscape of Panama through an insightful conversation with Eric Van Hoorde, the past president of FIABCI Panama and owner of Van Hoorde Realty. Learn about how government incentives are attracting multinational companies to the region. We shed light on prime neighborhoods like Costa del Este and Santa Maria, ideal for high-return residential investments, and examine the growing appeal of beach and mountain regions for expats and retirees, influenced by remote work trends.

Considering a move to Panama? We delve into the nuances of purchasing property as a foreigner, including the benefits of the Permanent Residence for Qualified Investors visa. Eric explains how foreigners can buy property without needing a visa and the educational options for families, ranging from American and Panamanian to international schools, ensuring a seamless transition for expatriate children. Eric discusses diverse industries represented by over 140 multinational companies now operating in Panama, boosting its economic landscape.

The luxury real estate market takes center stage in our discussion of the Bioma project in Costa del Este; high-demand, amenity-packed apartments including terraces, high ceilings, and facilities like a two-star Michelin restaurant and a heliport. With 70% of units sold within ten months, Bioma represents a promising investment opportunity. We also address practical considerations such as maintenance fees and the absence of selling restrictions for non-residents.
