// KEY FACTS
◆ PRIMARY STRATEGY · FLIP
Editorial judgments, 1 to 10, set by the curator. Not algorithmic. See methodology →
The flip math is modest because the unit is already premium-finished — there's no equity to add through a heavy renovation. A 50M COP cosmetic refresh and broker positioning supports an exit around 7.2M COP per m², which produces a +9% to +21% annualized return over a 12-month hold after costs and capital gains tax. Not a barn-burner flip, but low execution risk because there's no full-scope construction work to manage. The real upside is the hold-and-yield story.
◆ TWO WAYS TO READ THIS
The flip math is honest but constrained — premium-finished units don't add equity through renovation. The investment thesis is buy and hold: light refresh of 50M COP (including disposal of any throwaway furniture), then list furnished at $2,200 to $2,500 USD monthly to design-conscious nomads, medical-tourist recoveries near CES, and longer-term professionals on extended stays. Post-tax yield 5.0% to 6.0% on an asset that should preserve real value across the hold.
Lower-density La Concha street, walking distance to Carulla and Mall Vizcaya, easy 5-minute drive to Provenza when you want it. The biblioteca and home-office layout works for a remote professional or family that needs a third functional room without paying for a 3 BR. Doble altura kitchen, water-curtain feature — design touches that age well.
What La Lonja recorded for your zone. Not a forecast for this listing.
La Lonja’s 265 Edition reported Zona 5 (Poblado, Envigado, Sabaneta) apartment valorization at 7.82% in 2024. The 2025 land study (published April 2026) recorded 7.5% real for Envigado municipality, consistent with a sustained mid-single-digit-to-high pace.
Lonja groups Poblado, Envigado, and Sabaneta as Zona 5 (sub-market variance is real). Figures are nominal COP; real appreciation in high-inflation years (~13% in 2022, ~5% in 2024) is lower.
Appreciation figures: La Lonja de Propiedad Raíz de Medellín y Antioquia (2024 zone-level apartment index, 2025 land study). Context from Camacol Antioquia (trade group) and DANE / Banco de la República. We show the range. We do not predict which one happens.
// ESTIMATED REMODEL COST
Range covers a full unit remodel, set by the curator using contractor quote data for this neighborhood and condition class.
5.0% – 6.0%
Range assumes professional management at 22% plus sales tax (IVA), 20% withholding tax, 7.5% exit yield, and renovated condition.
Lower bound reflects conservative occupancy (75%) and lower-tier finish. Upper bound assumes strong occupancy (88%+) and premium finish targeting professional medium-term rental tenants. Estimates, not guarantees.

Three to five sibling listings in the same neighborhood and similar condition class, with their current asks. Updated each curation cycle.
◆ CONDITION NOTES
Premium finishes already in place. Description and photos indicate a contemporary kitchen, biblioteca, glass-walled office, and balcón with green view. Building has elevator, electronic gate, and 12-hour porteria. The 25M to 50M COP refresh budget covers paint, minor finish updates, and staging — not structural work. Verify HOA fees and the RPH STR policy in writing before closing.

// How we got this number
Curator judgment, no live sample yet. Labeled honestly, never dressed up.
150m² premium-finished 2 BR with biblioteca and glass-walled home-office near Universidad CES and Mall Vizcaya is exactly the shape MTR demand looks for in Poblado. Furnished monthly rate $2,200 to $2,500 USD to design-conscious digital nomads, medical-tourist recoveries leveraging CES proximity for procedures and follow-up, and longer-term professionals with home-office requirements. Annual net yield 5.0% to 6.0% post-tax after 22% plus IVA management, vacancy, HOA, and 20% non-resident withholding. STR (Airbnb nightly) is almost certainly banned by the building's RPH — assume no until confirmed in writing.
If you want a Poblado address with a quieter, lower-density residential street feel away from the Provenza nightlife corridor, this is the unit. Premium-finished from build, so a buyer who wants to move in and skip renovation gets a turnkey product. 150m² is generous for 2 BR — the biblioteca and home-office pull the buyer pool toward remote professionals and small families. Loses points because the location is residential-only, with no walking lifestyle anchors of Provenza or Manila.
