Special Edition: Saturday’s Presentation Recap

Building Paraguay’s First Silicon Valley Style Business-Center

Hey guys, Mikkel here,

This past Saturday was nothing short of extraordinary. 

Hundreds of you from around the world joined me live for a special presentation, and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the response over the past couple of days. 

This was a gathering of bold, adventurous, and forward-thinking people just like you who understand that waiting for “proof” in the mainstream media is how fortunes are missed.

Over the course of the morning, we dove deep into the economic case for Paraguay, the incredible momentum building in Ciudad del Este, and, most importantly, the unveiling of a new project that I believe will anchor one of the most valuable commercial hubs in the country.

And to show you how strongly I believe in this opportunity, I did something live during the presentation: I committed to purchasing the entire 13th floor of the building myself. 

That’s how much conviction I have.

There comes a point in investing when the opportunity is so clear, the only decision is how big to go.

Most miss those types of opportunities because they’re too busy looking backward at where growth already happened…

…or waiting for headlines to confirm what they already know but have still failed to act upon…

But those who act in these moments when the signs and signals are obvious but before the masses catch on, those are the people who capture extraordinary returns. 

That’s exactly where we are right now in Paraguay, and more specifically in Ciudad del Este.

The signals are here, the fundamentals are aligned, and the opportunity is in plain view.

That’s why on Saturday, when we unveiled HUB.8, we didn’t just present the deal…

I made a BIG move myself.

…and so did many others who joined me live.

Read on, and I’ll show you exactly why so many people jumped at the invitation to invest alongside me in a business center project that is going to redefine the standard of commercial office space in Paraguay.

The Drivers Behind Paraguay’s Breakout Moment: 

Backed by a pro-market government and a plan to double GDP by 2035, Paraguay is entering a phase of major growth. 

Even global players are beginning to take note (and action by way of private capital investments into infrastructure projects) because the ingredients for sustained growth are undeniable.

Paraguay is sitting on some of the cheapest and most abundant energy in the region, exporting nearly a fifth of Brazil’s electricity needs and a quarter of Argentina’s (they can do this because they produce a surplus of energy… simply put, they sell only what they don’t need themselves). 

Its debt-to-GDP ratio is just 36% (the lowest across all of Latin America).  

More than half of its territory is suitable for agricultural farming and/production.

…it’s no wonder the country produces enough food to feed its entire population 40 times over every single year…

Its young population is increasingly educated, established in the workforce and is well on its way to becoming firmly in the middle class. This may not sound like much to the untrained ear; however, it is quite meaningful as this demographic shift ensures a steady supply of skilled workers for decades to come.

And despite all this, wages remain low, giving it a labour cost advantage over regional competitors. 

Add to that the free trade agreements that are already set in stone and the others that will soon be coming to fruition, and you have the underpinnings of a low-cost, business-friendly country in the center of South America.

As someone who has studied how markets function in more than 110 countries, I can say without a shadow of a doubt that what I am seeing unfold in Paraguay right now is among the most compelling I have ever uncovered. 

Ciudad del Este: The “Boom Site”

This once-sleepy border town has multiplied its population by almost eightfold since the 1960s and is now home to roughly 1.5 million people. 

The government is pouring resources into the city at a pace I’ve never seen before. 

Public works spending in Ciudad del Este is higher today than in any other Paraguayan city in history.

A brand-new bridge to Brazil is opening within months. 

Truck bypasses are under construction to pull heavy freight out of the downtown core. 

The city is not just catching up… it is being reshaped into a genuine city of the future.

Yet for all this progress, the real estate sector has not kept pace. 

Housing supply is tight. 

And in the commercial sector, the shortage is glaring. 

Office occupancy in CDE already sits above ninety percent.

In fact, many of the existing office buildings in the region are at least a decade old, lack modern design, have zero amenities, and yet are still fully occupied.

Also, in Ciudad del Este, smaller-footprint offices (think under seventy square meters) simply don’t exist…. but they’re desperately needed. 

As a result, many companies are forced to set up shop in converted houses, whereas others avoid Ciudad del Este altogether. 

This is just the state of the current commercial real estate landscape (and lack thereof) in Ciudad del Este.

This isn’t just a deficiency… it’s a bottleneck. 

And in every fast-growing market I’ve ever studied, bottlenecks like this become the highest-return opportunities for early investors.

Which is exactly why I’d like to introduce you to….

Introducing HUB.8 - Redefining The Future of Work In Paraguay 

At 80 meters tall, spanning 21 stories, HUB.8 is more than a fancy office taking in an emerging skyline…  

HUB.8 WILL DEFINE the skyline in Ciudad del Este.

…and more than that, it will define the new standard for business centres in all of Paraguay. 

HUB.8 has been engineered to be the most sophisticated and functional commercial tower in Paraguay’s fastest-growing economic corridor. 

Every square meter has been designed to serve businesses that plan not just for today, but for decades to come.

HUB.8 was designed with a full suite of amenities that set it apart from anything else in Ciudad del Este: dedicated co-working zones, high-tech conference spaces, world-class dining options, leisure and wellness areas, and, of course, the rooftop sky lounge that will be the premier networking spot in the city.

The robust amenities were strategically planned to attract the best companies that are serious about having a presence in or expanding their operations within Ciudad del Este.

HUB.8 is designed for flexibility:  

  • Small executive offices for professionals. 

  • Medium-sized offices for growing firms. 

  • Half and full floors for multinationals. 

The businesses that move into HUB.8 will be those who need a base of operations that signals to clients and competitors alike that they are operating at the highest level, while simultaneously creating a work environment that is favourable to its employees.  

For multinationals and high-end tenants, these amenities are not “nice-to-haves”…  they are critical differentiators in attracting and retaining top talent.

When you walk into a building like this, you don’t just see office space… you see a long and bright future.

You see staying power. 

HUB.8 is the project that will attract these businesses, and for investors, that means stability.

It means long-term leases signed by companies with clear, forward-looking plans. 

It means tenants who are committing to 5, 7, even 10 years at a time because they know this is the home base their growth requires.

Breathtaking physical presence, world-class amenities, and prime location, all blended with the fact that the market is begging for modern office solutions, and we’re looking at a building that is going to become a major draw for serious tenants.

It’s inevitable. 

While the rest of the market is still stuck in 2010-era construction with no amenities, HUB.8 redefines the standard. For the first time, businesses in Ciudad del Este will have a place that signals professionalism and credibility to both clients and employees.

This is the building that will set the standard for commercial real estate in Ciudad del Este, and investors who secure a position here will reap serious benefits for the years or even decades to come (depending on when you want to exit your position).

The Investment Details: Positioning Your Capital In Paraguay 

This is not a public launch.

This is not something you’ll find being promoted on a billboard or listed with a broker. 

This is an off-market, club-deal exclusively available to the Expat Money and Paraguay Potential subscribers. 

As an insider, you are getting the exclusive invitation to join the earliest access at the lowest prices in a project that is set to revolutionize how businesses operate in Paraguay. 

For serious investors, this is the very definition of high-value investing: low entry costs inside a high-growth market backed by solid fundamentals.

Here is the available investment inventory inside HUB.8:

  • Total units: 44.

  • Executive offices”: 20 units ranging between 17 - 23m².

  • Vantage offices”: 20 units ranging between 36 - 40m².

Entry is INCREDIBLY accessible, so even if you’re a first-time investor still working on building up some liquid capital, this invitation is still well within your reach.  

How is 34k USD for within your reach?

Yes.

34k.

You can secure your position inside HUB.8 from just $34,000 USD per unit.

Think about this for a moment: you can secure a fully-titled office in the premier commercial development in Ciudad del Este for less than the cost of a mid-range car, like a Kia, for example.

So, the question is: would you rather allocate your hard-earned dollars to a “new car” that becomes just “a car” mere days after you buy it, OR would you rather own a cash-flowing piece of commercial real estate inside Paraguay’s most important city…?

Send an email to [email protected] if you chose a cash-flowing piece of commercial real estate inside Paraguay’s most important city.

Of course, that entry point is designed to make this accessible. 

It lowers the barrier so anyone in this community can get positioned early. 

But let’s be clear, most serious investors aren’t stopping at a single unit.

They’re reserving multiple units… and even taking half-floor blocks… and in my case, an entire floor.

…and when you look at the math, bigger positions mean bigger upside, more predictable income, and a more significant (capital appreciating) footprint in one of South America’s fastest-developing commercial hubs.

So yes, you can come in for $34k, but if you’re the type of investor who recognizes where this is going, you’ll be thinking in multiples. 

I highly suggest you work closely with Fernando directly to determine your optimal unit selection and think carefully about how to “match the market needs” with the type of office configuration you decide upon.

That said, if you prefer a simpler approach, you can always tell Fernando, “Hey, I want to allocate 160k (200k, 300k, whatever your budget is…) into this development, can you put a proposal together for me”?

(For those of you keen on taking on a larger position inside HUB.8 by way of a half-floor or whole floor purchase, inquire directly with Fernando by sending an email to [email protected].)  

The financing is structured to make fiscal sense and is incredibly straightforward and investor-friendly. Here is what it takes to secure a unit today and get in on the action yourself:

  • 1k USD Reservation Fee

  • 30% of the total amount due at groundbreaking (Dec 2025 - Jan 2026)

  • Followed by 8 quarterly payments of 5%

  • Remaining balance upon delivery 

This payment structure means your capital is working for you across the entire construction phase, rather than being tied up all at once.

In just a matter of months, ground will be broken, and once construction is underway, prices will increase, as they always do at this stage.

given this is an undersupplied, demand-driven market, I would expect an increase of 30-45% on the value of your unit in 18 months from today.

Plus, when you invest in HUB.8, you will not need to lift a single finger.  

Through the rental management arm of our partner firm, Green Parana, your rental experience is turn-key. 

Everything from tenant placement to property management, rent collection, tax payments and reporting is covered.

Now, I want to be upfront about the fact that the moment this building is made available to the public, the pricing/financing options will change, and what was once exclusively available for you will now be available to the general public.

Right now, you’re at the front of the line, but it won’t be that way for long.  

If you’ve been waiting for an entry point where the numbers, timing, and positioning all align... this is it.

This is the moment to decide: do you want to dip a toe in with the minimum, or do you want to step in with conviction and claim a bigger share of the upside?

Reserve your unit today and lock in the lowest price you’ll ever see inside HUB.8 by sending an email right now to Fernando at [email protected].

The Power of Commercial Tenants

One of the most overlooked advantages of a project like HUB.8 is the type of tenant it attracts.

Residential tenants often rent based on their immediate situation - a new job, a lifestyle change, or family needs. 

That means leases are shorter, turnover is higher, and stability is always a question.

Commercial tenants operate on an entirely different plane. 

Businesses don’t plan for the next 12 months. 

They plan for the next 5, 10, sometimes even 15 years. 

When a company decides to establish an office in a city like Ciudad del Este, they aren’t thinking about short-term convenience.

They’re looking at market growth, trade flows, logistics, and long-term positioning, and once they decide to plant their flag, they commit.

That’s why commercial leases are traditionally very secure.

They are longer, more stable, and backed by companies that can’t simply “pick up and leave” without serious costs and consequences. 

For landlords like us, that means predictable cash flow, lower turnover costs, and far greater stability compared to the residential market.

…and this is where the numbers become truly compelling. 

An 8 - 10% annual yield backed by this kind of tenant base isn’t just attractive - it’s rare.

To lock in that level of return, with leases secured for years at a time, is the kind of income stream every serious investor should want in their offshore portfolio. 

It’s the foundation that provides stability and security while other markets swing with volatility.

That’s what HUB.8 represents: not just income, but dependable income.

Not just appreciation potential, but a core asset you can rely on as a cornerstone piece within your investment portfolio.

When you’ve spent twenty-five years studying global markets, when you’ve lived in nine countries and travelled to over 110, you learn to recognize the signals that matter. 

In Paraguay, and especially in Ciudad del Este, those signals are unmistakable.

I’ve watched the cranes go up, the roads get paved, and the trade corridors open. 

When I look at Ciudad del Este today, I see the same patterns I’ve seen in breakout markets across the world: places that went from being overlooked to being the hottest investment stories of their decade.

I know what I see, and I’ve acted accordingly.

Now it’s on you - if you’re ready to move, the process is simple: all you have to do to get things in motion is send an email to [email protected].

You two can discuss your investment goals and together can come up with the right mix of units for your portfolio. Remember, if you’re ready to move, you need to have your credit card handy for the reservation fee.

If you don’t secure your unit with the small reservation fee, it's more than likely going to become someone else’s.

Why I Took the 13th Floor (and why you should invest too):

During the presentation, I made a public commitment: I’m taking the entire thirteenth floor for my personal portfolio.

I did it because I’ve seen this movie before:  

When a city is growing fast, when infrastructure is being built, when industries are pouring in, and when office supply is years behind demand… that’s when you plant your flag.

For me, owning an entire floor means capturing premium corporate tenants, securing high-value leases, and positioning myself to ride the appreciation curve as Ciudad del Este steps further onto the global stage.

If I’m willing to take a full floor, I think that tells you everything you need to know about the level of conviction I have in this project.

When I announced during the presentation that I would be taking the 13th floor of HUB.8, it may have come across as a spontaneous decision, but let me assure you: I don’t allocate my capital lightly. Every move I make is methodical, strategic, and based on decades of studying global markets and real estate cycles.

I already have a material chunk of my investment portfolio allocated within Paraguay, and right up until the time of the call, I was on the fence about whether I would be securing a half-floor block or an entire floor, hence the back and forth I was having with Fernando on this topic. 

I only make sizable investments (nearly 1.3 million) like I did in HUB.8, when I fully believe in the project, trust in the coming outsized returns, and when the long-term capital appreciation potential is all but written in stone.  

I specifically picked the 13th floor for my portfolio because it offers a unique balance that will matter tremendously to my future tenants: high enough for panoramic views, but close enough to the amenities on the 15th floor to give occupants easy access to conference facilities, leisure areas, and networking spaces.

Securing the 13th floor inside HUB.8 represents decades of research, years of deal-making, and a lifetime of experience telling me when to move, even if it appeared as a quick decision. 

That’s why I committed so strongly, and that’s exactly why I’m telling you to seriously consider what position you want to take here.

The biggest upsides and the most well-positioned units belong to those of you who act decisively today.

Don’t wait, or you'll miss out.

Write Fernando right away at [email protected], and he’ll work with you to make sure you get in on this deal at the absolute lowest prices these units will ever be offered at.

Speak soon,
Mikkel
