FAQ

How much does it cost to prepare the land for construction.

The approximate cost of land clearing (tree cutting, flattening, elevation, etc.), at current values, ranges from US$4,000 to US$5,500 depending on the land.

What is the construction cost in the area?

The construction cost is between $120 and $150 per square foot, this translated to square meters is: 1 square meter between $1,290 and $1,615, that is to say, to build a 300m2 house could cost you approximately $450,000, including the land.

Are there any restrictions regarding the material to be used to build or the type of construction? I understand that the zoning is residential and there must be parameters in terms of maximum areas and allowed heights (as anywhere), but the question is more oriented to whether you could for example build a wooden construction, prefabricated houses or with container material.

The city allows 3 types of houses:

The single family house built with block and cement(only the external part of the house), the modular house and the prefabricated house.

I will send you the codes established by the city regarding the type of housing for this type of zoning.
