Montevideo's beachfront default, walkable Pocitos: the Rambla, a crescent beach and the city's deepest expat demand at ~5.5–6.5% yields

About Pocitos

Pocitos is Montevideo's quintessential beachfront barrio: a dense, walkable grid of modern mid-rise apartments fronting a sheltered crescent beach on the Rambla, with the Parque Villa Biarritz and the Avenida Brasil / 26 de Marzo retail spines. It is the default choice for expat families and remote workers wanting coastal living with everyday amenities. For investors, Pocitos offers the investable core's stronger gross yields of ~5.5–6.5% on a deep, liquid tenant base. Uruguay's fully equal foreign-ownership regime keeps acquisition simple, the market is USD-priced (insulating from peso swings), and residency runs via the 183-day-presence route or, for HNW buyers, the new ~US$2M real-estate threshold (raised 1 Jan 2026).
