Punta del Este · José Ignacio · Montevideo
A quieter kind of luxury,
on the Atlantic.
Independent advisory for international buyers acquiring property and relocating to Uruguay — from the first conversation to the keys.
Uruguay Residences
Your trusted bridge between Europe and Uruguay.
Uruguay has quietly become one of the most compelling places in the world to own a home: stable institutions, equal rights for foreign owners, dollar-denominated property and an unhurried way of life on the edge of the Atlantic.
We guide private clients through every step — understanding the market, shortlisting the right residences, coordinating visits, due diligence and residency — so the decision feels as calm as the place itself. Transactions are completed with registered Uruguayan real estate operators and escribanos (public notaries), as Uruguayan law requires.
Why Uruguay
Equal
Foreign buyers hold the same property rights as Uruguayan citizens.
US$
Residential property is typically priced and transacted in US dollars.
11 years
Tax holiday on foreign-source income available to qualifying new tax residents.
Stable
Investment-grade credit rating and some of the strongest institutions in Latin America.
The places
Where the Atlantic meets a slower pace of life.
José Ignacio
A fishing village turned discreet international refuge — dunes, lighthouse and low-rise architecture.
Punta del Este
South America’s most cosmopolitan resort, alive in summer and calm the rest of the year.
Montevideo · Carrasco
Leafy residential streets, international schools and year-round city life on the river.
Chacras & the countryside
Private estates among rolling hills, minutes from the coast and a world away from it.
How we work
A private, unhurried process.
01
Private consultation
We start with your plans: lifestyle, budget, timing, residency and tax goals.
02
A curated shortlist
A small selection of residences that genuinely fit — including properties that are rarely advertised.
03
Visits & due diligence
We organise viewings and coordinate title checks with the escribano and independent advisers.
04
Purchase & relocation
From the offer to the deed, residency paperwork and settling in.
Residency & tax
Planning a move, not only a purchase?
Uruguay offers a straightforward path to legal residency and, for qualifying new tax residents, an 11-year exemption on most foreign-source income. The rules changed in 2026 — we explain what applies to you, alongside qualified Uruguayan tax advisers.
