How much does an apartment in Asunción cost — Real 2026 prices
These are the real ranges from our active catalogue, calculated across 406 habitable units in 10 projects. Not estimates, not portal averages: they are computed against the database at the moment you open this page.
A note on method: these are the prices of the projects we market, not an index of the entire Asunción market. We exclude parking spaces and storage units from the calculation, because they distort any average, and we use the median rather than the mean so a single premium tower does not skew a whole city.
Price by unit type
| Type | Area | From | To | Median USD/m² |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | 24.8–41 m² | USD 38,900 | USD 96,581 | 2,060 |
| 1 bedroom | 32–52 m² | USD 48,000 | USD 128,500 | 1,988 |
| 2 bedrooms | 55–80 m² | USD 75,200 | USD 181,105 | 2,171 |
| 3+ bedroom house | 127 m² | USD 147,000 | USD 147,000 | 1,157 |
Studios make up most of the supply: 277 of the 406 units. They are also the format that rents most easily, which is why they are the usual entry point for investors.
Price by city
| City | From | Median | Median USD/m² |
|---|---|---|---|
| Asunción | USD 46,200 | USD 64,600 | 2,077 |

The gap between Asunción (2,077 USD/m²) and San Lorenzo (1,297 USD/m²) is around 60%. The choice of area moves the price more than square metres or floor level do.

How to read USD/m² (and why the cheapest does not always win)
Price per square metre is the best comparator between projects, but it needs to be read with judgement:
- An expensive m² in an area with demand can outperform a cheap one where there are no tenants. INARCO Herrera has the highest m² in the catalogue (2,565) and sits in an established area.
- Larger units lower the m² artificially. Harbor Casas del Yacht has the lowest m² (1,157) but a ticket of USD 147,000: it is 127 m². Comparing a house to a studio by m² makes no sense.
- Studios carry the highest m² in almost any market, because the bathroom and kitchen are spread over less floor area. That is normal, not an overcharge.
What drives the price within the same building
Two units in the same project can differ considerably. What matters:
- Construction stage: the biggest factor by far. The earlier you enter off-plan, the better the price — and the longer the wait.
- Floor and orientation: high floors usually carry a premium of USD 1,000 to 2,000; so do the best views and aspects.
- Area and balcony: within the same type there are variants with and without a balcony.
- Building amenities: pool, gym, coworking and security show up in the price and also in the monthly fees.
Extras to budget separately
The list price of the unit is not the total outlay. Add:
- Parking space: USD 11,000–18,000 depending on the building. It is not always compulsory; in investment studios many buyers skip it.
- Storage unit: USD 2,600–7,000.
- Deed costs and notary fees.
- Building fees: these start on handover, not during construction.
How it is paid: financing without a bank
The usual off-plan scheme is a down payment of around 20% plus monthly instalments until handover, financed directly by the developer, with no bank and no credit scoring. For a USD 38,900 studio, that is roughly USD 7,780 down and the balance in instalments.
This is why a foreign buyer can get in without residency or local credit history — we explain it in detail in the guide for foreigners.
Are these prices high or low?
It depends what you compare them to. Against Madrid, London or São Paulo, a studio from USD 38,900 sits far below any equivalent. Against other capitals in the region, Asunción remains one of the most accessible entry points.
