Investors in the region, increasingly attracted to real estate in the United States

Among the destinations that generate the greatest attraction, it always appears Miami, but it is not the only one nor the most profitable, beyond the importance of diversifying throughout the United States, as he warned. Iván Chomer, CEO of Dividenz, the real estate investment platform.

“In the United States you have what they call ‘gateway cities’, “They are entry cities for foreign audiences, but those are not the cities,” Chomer explained to Scope and, when specifically consulted by Miami, he indicated that in that city “I compete against the local and against all the other foreigners who are going to make a capital deployment.”

“Real estate is a business of opportunities. In Uruguay, you say it is profitable to invest in Wells And I say it depends on what you buy. Miami is a city that comes with a lot of growth, but there are a lot of other first or second category cities that are huge cities,” he warned.

Among the cities that have “a spectacular attraction,” he mentioned Philadelphia, Denver, Texas, Austin, San Antonio, Dallas, Houston or Salt Lake City. “What the United States has is that it is like 50 countries in one. Yeah? That is, one looks at the GDP of California, It is one of the five largest economies in the world and Texas It is in the Top 10,” he highlighted.

The expectations generated by Trump

Asked about the expectations generated by the second term of Trump’s government in the United States, Chomer pointed out that “it is said that the market is discounting that the economy Americana is going to grow a lot” and considered that “it is going to be very positive.”

Regarding the American president-elect, he also highlighted that “he is a businessman who always looks at the market first” and recalled that he promised to “lower prices.” taxes to promote the economy.”

Tips when investing

At a time when Dividenz is considering opening an office in Uruguay, Its CEO considered that “when you want to invest money, especially in a market or industry that you know less about, the first driver is not profitability, but rather security and loss aversion.”

“If I want to invest in cryptocurrencies, I’m not going to buy a rare coin that no one knows about, I’m going to buy Bitcoin. The most important thing is, when you are going to invest abroad, do it with serious companies to maximize the chances of winning and minimize the chances of losing. That allows me to enter with companies that already know how sausage is made,” he compared.

Then, he pointed out that “the second point is what I invest in” and asked “to look at what the investment strategy is and the fundamentals that they offer me” and compared: “It is one thing to go out and invest in houses in detroit, that today does not have a certain future of growth. The products that Dividenz has are the best real estate products in the world and are the same ones that all the largest investment funds in the United States have, both in multifamily as industrial”.

“What is better than investing where the American lives, the worker, who sends his children to school 10 blocks from the house of the apartment he rents, works 15 minutes away and the last thing he stops paying is rent?”, he argued.

Your third step points to the site of investments. “The United States does not fail, it is the winning horse. It is a country that proves to me to be the most stable and with better legal quality, constant growth,” Chomer highlighted.

Investments and profitability

When referring to the profitability of the products offered by Dividenz, he highlighted that the range goes from 14 to 20%. “Those are the historical ranges of the multifamily or the logistics segment in the United States, it is not that we are inventing anything. What we do is bring to the region something that is consumed throughout the world, but that in Latin America Few heard it, only the great fortunes,” he highlighted.

“The core, which is like the star product, is Dividenz Deals, which is about being able to invest in a specific building and capturing the specific returns on that investment. That product is the one with the highest ticket and the minimum of 30 thousand dollars. In fact, the average is 50 thousand dollars,” he pointed out.

In turn, he indicated that “Shield It is a spectacular program that works as a kind of insurance” and added “Cash, “a fixed income investment fund that is a single building in a lot of buildings, with a lower ticket of $2,000 and a return of 9.5% in the first months.”

Each option has performance tracking. “We use it internally, but in the future it will be on the platform available to clients. In other words, clients will be able to track month by month the detailed performance of each of the investments and assets they make, something that is very good because it improves traceability,” said Chomer.

And he rounded up: “Real estate is the largest asset class in the world. There is more money than in financial, agricultural or whatever assets. One was limited to investing in his city and it is ridiculous. It’s like me telling you that you can only buy Uruguayan actions.”

“Before there was this strategy of older people buying apartments and today people want to receive the money in the account and that’s it. With the signatures of digital contracts and transfers, it is so easy to invest anywhere that it is becoming much more accessible and I think that this wave in the region is being led by us and in the most attractive market in the world,” he said.

Regarding the firm, he highlighted that Dividenz is “a company that does not stop growing, revolutionizing a market” and noted that its expansion in the region will continue until 2025. “To achieve this, we are going to launch in March an ambitious and almost unprecedented partner program in the real estate market,” he anticipated.
