GarciaBodan is a law firm ranked in Nicaragua in tier one in the Real Estate practice area by the legal directory Chambers and Partners.

The Real Estate practice was born out of the needs of the market. While the company has a corporate approach, our clients have been the ones to ask for this specialized consultancy based on the need for real estate transactions in urban centers and places that are booming with tourism for the development of their businesses.

Our team has vast experience in all aspects related to the practice, since we have been attorneys to the main tourist and urban projects in the region. Likewise, we have been advisors in the negotiation and purchase of plots of land for the installation of industrial plants, tax payments applicable to properties and the creation of different real estate contracts that come into play in real estate transactions.

Our office in San Juan del Sur stands out in this practice area since it has been widely recognized as the preferred law firm by the most influential real estate agencies in the region to deal with foreign private investors. This office has assisted individual foreign investors with hundreds of transactions related to the purchase, sale or resale of land, houses and apartments in the southern part of the country.
