CONFOTUR — stated by the seller, not verified by us

The listing claims this property carries CONFOTUR, running to 2027. If that holds for your unit, its annual IPI of $3,137 drops to zero — worth about +0.6 points of net yield, and you would not pay the 3% transfer tax at closing either.

“164.24 m² HOA FEE: $574.84 USD CONFOTUR: Tax benefits until 2027 ABOUT LOS CORALES, EL CORTECITO El Cortecito is one of the most touristic areas of Bávaro, where short-term rentals are predominant and frequent t”

We have not verified this. CONFOTUR is granted per project by resolution and can be confirmed with MITUR or by asking the developer for the resolution number. The yield above still charges full IPI, so it is the conservative figure — this is upside you have to check, not a discount we have applied.
