Investing in the "End of the World" currently offers one of the strongest returns in the region, driven by limited supply and sustained high demand. This can be broken down into three main investment profiles:

• Capital Appreciation (Off-Plan Developments): Projects located in the city center with views of the Beagle Channel allow investors to enter at off-plan prices (starting at USD 2,800/m²) and project significant appreciation upon completion, considering that the premium market ceiling has already reached USD 4,400/m².

• Tourism and Seasonal Demand: Ushuaia’s consolidation as an international destination ensures occupancy levels above the national average, increasing annual dollar-denominated returns beyond those of traditional markets. Current average annual returns range between 10% and 12%, depending on the location and quality of the property offered.

• Traditional Rental Income: With rental values adjusted by CPI indexation, properties generate steady cash flow. Based on our current operations, quality apartment leases can maintain competitive values, preserving the real value of capital while generating returns of up to 10% annually relative to the property’s value. Ushuaia ranks as the second city in the country with the highest per capita income and an extremely low unemployment rate. This environment supports stable rental income, low delinquency rates, and a consistently unmet housing demand.

House prices in Ushuaia vary depending on the area, size, and condition of the property. In general, houses in residential neighborhoods start at around USD 200,000, while larger properties or those located in premium areas can exceed USD 340,000.

In order for a home to be purchased through a mortgage loan, banks require two essential legal documents:

1. Property Title (Deed): It must be properly registered and free of liens or encumbrances.

2. Updated Building Plans: The plans must accurately reflect the current square footage and layout of the property.

At Latitud Propiedades, we simplify this process for you. We offer an exclusive portfolio of homes that already meet these requirements and are ready to be financed.

Our added value:

Comprehensive Advisory: We guide you step by step through the technical and legal requirements.

Deed Management: We coordinate with all parties involved to ensure a smooth and secure transaction.

Personalized Support: We accompany you from the first consultation through to the final signing.

The most sought-after neighborhoods for purchasing property in Ushuaia are the downtown area (high accessibility and guaranteed tourist rental demand), Casas del Sur (a consolidated residential area with commercial spaces, healthcare centers, and schools nearby), Terrazas del Fin del Mundo (privileged views and natural surroundings), Bahía Cauquén (the city’s only gated community, set within a unique natural environment), Costa Susana, and the Pipo area, which, like Casas del Sur, offers convenient access to commercial and service centers within a consolidated residential area with high housing demand.

Each neighborhood has different characteristics in terms of pricing, connectivity, and appreciation potential. At Latitud Propiedades, we advise you on which area best suits your investment profile.

Buying an apartment under construction (off-plan) in Ushuaia offers the advantage of entering at a lower price point and accessing direct financing from the developer, with the potential for significant appreciation by the time the project is delivered.

A pre-owned or brand-new apartment is immediately available and may qualify for a mortgage loan; it is purchased at current market value but allows for immediate rental income or personal use upon acquisition.

Both options are exempt from national taxes in Tierra del Fuego thanks to Law 19.640, maximizing profitability in either scenario.

To determine whether the price of a property in Ushuaia is accurate, it is important to compare the value per square meter in the area, the condition of the property, its age, whether it includes a garage or amenities, and the closing prices of similar recent transactions.

At Latitud Propiedades, we provide professional property appraisals that determine the true market value, helping owners avoid selling below market price and buyers avoid overpaying.

Ushuaia is the most attractive real estate market in Argentina for several reasons:

1. Income in U.S. dollars: an international tourism hub and the gateway to Antarctica. Ushuaia is Argentina’s most attractive market for those seeking short-term rental income (Airbnb) and long-term value preservation.

2. Population growth: it has the highest demographic growth rate in Argentina due to both natural population growth and labor-driven migration.

3. High accommodation demand: Ushuaia (Tierra del Fuego) is one of the most dynamic real estate markets in the country. It is an international destination with peak tourist seasons in both winter and summer, and demand for accommodation consistently exceeds supply.

4. Tax exemption regime: the province benefits from the industrial and fiscal promotion framework established under Law 19,640, under which investments are exempt from certain national taxes on ownership and profits. This is one of the most attractive advantages when calculating after-tax returns.

Ushuaia is more attractive than other cities because it is an international tourism hub and the gateway to Antarctica. Ushuaia is Argentina’s most attractive market for those seeking short-term rental income (Airbnb) and long-term value preservation. In addition, it has the highest population growth rate in Argentina due to both natural population growth and labor-driven migration.

It is one of the most dynamic markets in the country and an international destination with peak tourist seasons in both winter and summer, and the demand for accommodation consistently exceeds supply.

Finally, Ushuaia benefits from a national tax exemption regime, as the Province of Tierra del Fuego is covered by the industrial and fiscal promotion framework established under Law 19,640, through which investments are exempt from certain national taxes on ownership and profits. This is one of the most attractive advantages when calculating after-tax returns.

At Latitud Propiedades, we are convinced that Ushuaia is one of the best places to invest in real estate in Argentina. The city offers a unique combination of factors: a tourism industry that continues to grow year after year, a limited supply of properties, attractive tax benefits, and strong rental demand, both for short-term tourist accommodations and long-term residential housing, driven by population growth, labor migration, and international tourism.

This means that investing in Ushuaia not only provides the opportunity to generate rental income, but also to benefit from long-term property appreciation.

While other markets are more dependent on economic cycles, Ushuaia maintains strong fundamentals that make it an increasingly attractive option for investors from across the country and abroad.

At Latitud Propiedades, we have first-hand knowledge of the local market and guide each investor in identifying concrete opportunities, helping them make informed decisions and take full advantage of everything Ushuaia has to offer today.

If you are looking for an investment backed by a tangible asset, with the ability to generate income and the potential for long-term appreciation, real estate is often one of the most solid alternatives. Unlike a financial investment, a property is a real asset that you can see, manage, and benefit from while it increases in value over time.

In addition, location makes all the difference. In Ushuaia, the combination of a limited supply of properties, growing tourism, and sustained rental demand creates highly attractive conditions for those looking to invest in real estate.

At Latitud Propiedades, we specialize in identifying investment opportunities in Ushuaia, guiding each client toward properties with genuine rental income potential and long-term appreciation. Because a good investment depends not only on the asset itself, but also on the market in which you choose to invest.
