Titled Property in Paraguay

Most agents will sell you anything.
We will only sell you a property worth buying.

Many foreign buyers in Paraguay get their fingers burned. Not because Paraguay is dangerous, but because the agents they used were not equipped — or not motivated — to protect them. Title defects, boundary disputes, hidden encumbrances, escribanas with conflicts of interest — these problems are not rare in this market. They are routine for buyers who used the wrong help.

That is the gap we exist to fill. Every property we list has been through a preliminary evaluation for risk, with the option of full evaluation against the highest risk-assessment standard in the country before any offer is made. Every buyer we work with is steered through proper verification before they commit. Every transaction is run by people whose careers were built on managing risk in high-stakes purchases.

We list fewer properties than other agents. We follow a process that values assurance over speed. We tell buyers to walk away from listings other agents would push them to sign on. None of this is incidental. It is the entire reason we exist.

"Buying property in Paraguay is risky. Owning it is not. The risk lives entirely in the purchase process."
— The Red Book: Buying Property in Paraguay for Foreigners
How We Work

A higher standard,
applied without exception.

01
Every listing is pre-screened before it reaches our list

We know the red flags for properties that do not make it to settlement. A property does not appear on our platform until it has been through our review. Most submissions do not pass. The ones that reach our list have cleared a screening that real estate agencies skip entirely.

02
Before you commit, we recommend full verification

The initial assessment is what gets a property onto our list. Full verification is what should happen before you sign anything. This is a comprehensive paid audit carried out by the team we work with for titled property. It is the single best money you will spend in the entire purchase. We will tell you this at every stage. Buyers who skip it are the buyers who get hurt.

03
We will tell you when something is wrong

Most agents make money by closing as many deals as possible. We make money by closing the right ones. We will spend more time looking for reasons not to recommend a property than reasons to recommend it. We will tell you when something is wrong, even if it costs us the sale. The minority of properties we do recommend are the ones worth your money.

04
We stay until you sign the escritura

The job is not finished at offer or at handover. We stay with you through to settlement, when the escritura is signed and your obligations as buyer are complete. After settlement, the escribana takes over responsibility for the title transfer. If issues arise during that process, we can step back in to help.

Our standard is the highest in the country. There is no shortcut to it, and no equivalent available elsewhere in this market.

How we are paid — stated clearly

Yes, we receive a commission from the seller when a property completes through us. This is standard. What is not standard is the work we do to make sure the property is worth completing on in the first place. We turn away more properties than we list.

The Team Behind The Audit

The most experienced risk-management team
working in Paraguayan real estate.

For titled property in Paraguay, we work with one team and only one team — Ops 01, led by Matt Johnson. We do not have other arrangements. We do not refer titled-property buyers anywhere else. The reason is straightforward: nobody else in this market operates at the standard required to back the claim we make on this page.

Matt has been operating in Paraguayan real estate since 2013, with a prior career managing risk in high-stakes purchase transactions for large institutions. He is the author of the Red Book — Buying Property in Paraguay for Foreigners — widely considered the definitive English-language guide to this market. The audit standard he developed is the standard that sits behind every property we list and every full verification we recommend.

Working with him is not optional, and it is not a matter of preference. It is the reason we are confident standing behind every property that reaches our list, and the reason serious buyers should not consider buying titled property in Paraguay any other way.
