Questions buyers ask

Before you commit

Can a US citizen buy property in Argentina?

Generally yes for ordinary urban property. Rural land and sensitive locations can face additional restrictions.

Can I buy without traveling?

Some transactions can use a properly drafted power of attorney, subject to legal, banking and notarial requirements.

Can I use a US mortgage?

Do not assume conventional US financing is available. Most international buyers plan for cash or separately arranged financing.
