The One I (Regrettably) Let Get Away...

Hey guys, Mikkel here,

I’ve got something very special to discuss today, so I’m going to keep it brief and get right to the point because it is important that you guys read this entire newsletter from top to bottom.

Here’s what's been going on:

I have been kicking myself for the last year or so for not securing a position inside a certain project in Asunción.

I didn’t pass on investing for any reason other than the fact that when this project was first announced, I already had a significant amount of capital allocated in Paraguay and at the time was focused on increasing my land holdings, as well as in several other projects and opportunities I had already been working on with my partners on the ground.

So when The Morra came across my desk, I said, “later.” 

…and when “later” came, the project was already sold out… 

As I said, I have been kicking myself for it ever since.

Over the 18 or so months, I have travelled to Paraguay four times and have watched this project continue to progress towards completion. 

I have watched the area around it continue to develop, I have heard more and more about the massive pedestrian plaza being built directly in front of it, and I have watched the largest commercial building in all of Asunción continue to take shape just steps away from it, too. 

…and every time I see it, I can’t help but have the same reaction:

“I should have been in on this.”

For those of you who have joined me on one of my Expat Exploration & Investment Tours, there is a very good chance you will recognize the site of the special project as it sits right across from The Five Hotel, which is where all of us stay when we are on the ground in Asunción together. 

This project is literally right in the middle of all the action.

If you have been to Paraguay with me on a tour, you already know this is one of the, if not the most desirable and growth-heavy regions in all of Asunción. 

It’s where business travellers stay, where professionals want to move and where the capital and growth are concentrating.

…and for the past year, I have been trying to get us access, although the project has been sold out since 2025.

I was explaining this to Markus last week (for the 100th time) during the weekly strategy call we have, and after giving me the gears for not allocating capital into this special project when this first crossed my desk, he finally agreed to sell me a block of units from his personally holdings (I will surely owe him one for this later especially considering he is basically selling these to us below market value).

Markus personally owns 50 units in the project, which, for context, is 16.6% of the building's residential units.

Yes… 50 UNITS (yes, his position size is impressive and certainly speaks to the conviction he has in the project).

He has agreed to make just 12 units available to our community.

…and I expect all 12 to move quickly. 

The Morra is a high-rise residential development in one of Asunción’s most important growth pockets, designed around the exact type of modern, efficient, amenity-rich living that business travellers, professionals, consultants, foreign residents, and higher-quality tenants increasingly demand. 

Asunción is the business hub of Paraguay.

It is where the main corporate headquarters of the multinationals are, it’s where the government buildings are, and it’s where executives, consultants, investors, politicians, developers, bankers, lawyers, and international visitors are constantly moving in and out of. 

Hotels are going in.

Business activity is expanding at an incredible clip.

Tourism to the city is increasing rapidly (and will continue to do so). 

Major infrastructure and public-space improvements are taking shape.

…all at the same time…

…and the area around The Morra is directly tied into that growth.

Co-working areas.

A rooftop pool. 

Restaurants.

Retail stores and coffee shops on the ground level.

A walkable pedestrian-only zone right out front.

It is the kind of place where someone can land in Asunción, stay comfortably, work efficiently, take meetings, eat nearby, walk to the most high-density commercial areas, and operate directly inside of “where the buzz is”. 

Simply put, this location is the crème de la crème of Asunción. 

The building is expected to be completed at the end of 2027, which means you have roughly 18 months for your capital to sit inside a sold-out, high-demand project before the units enter the rental market.

Now, for the deal I have secured for you guys inside The Morra: 

One unit is $90,000 USD; however, the real opportunity lies in the block structure I have arranged.

If you buy a block of four units, the price drops to $75,000 USD per unit.

That means you can secure four fully-furnished, rental-ready units for a total of $300,000 USD.

One unit for $90,000.

Or four units for $300,000.

All available units are loft-style and identical. They’re roughly 30m squared, but for their size, they pack a solid punch in terms of livable layout and functionality.

Knowing this community and the way you guys tend to operate when something this lucrative comes across your table, I would wager that most investors reading this will look very closely at the four-unit block.

$300,000 to secure four high-upside apartments in a rapidly growing business district in a country gaining more international relevance by the month is the kind of entry point that will soon be extinct (frankly, I’m surprised it hasn’t already). 

At the block price of $75,000 per unit, these units are projected to cash flow between 7% and 9% annually once operational, while the underlying asset value has the potential to appreciate significantly by the time the building is completed and as the surrounding area continues to develop. 

NOTE: The 7-9% annual returns are based on renting to long-term occupants who will sign 1+ year leases. Should you decide to enter your unit (or units) into the short-term rental market via Airbnb, you can expect exponentially higher returns. Occupancy rates in the area are sky-high now, and all signs point to this trend continuing (The Five hotel directly across the street has 100 rooms and boasts a 92% occupancy rate).

…I am not going to speculate wildly about what these units may be worth in five, ten, or fifteen years; however, I think any reasonable person can look at the trajectory of Asunción, the quality of this location, the strength of the building, the nearby commercial development, and understand that the future resale value is very unlikely to look anything like today’s entry point.

That is the spread we are trying to capture… all the while taking down solid annual returns, of course.

We can structure this deal in a few ways:

•  You can pay in one shot.
  

• You can split the payment into two.
  

• Or, if you prefer to divide your payment over three payments, we can make that work too.

The point is that we have flexibility on the payment schedule… but we do not have much inventory (just 12 units MAX). 

The last time we brought a limited-availability offering through the Ramada Hotel Project, you guys recognized the opportunity quickly, and I expect the same to happen here.

Now, I want to make mention of this before telling you what to do next: 

The 12 units we have available inside The Morra are located on the 3rd, 5th & 7th floors. If you're going to be seeking a long-term tenant, I would advise you to secure a block of units on the 7th floor, as prospective tenants will appreciate the better views (and be willing to pay you a higher monthly rate).

If you want to secure one of these units, or if you want to discuss taking down a four-unit block (as I assume you guys will), you need to email Markus right away at: [email protected]

When you email Markus, please include your phone number and three different times that work for you to speak.

Alternatively, you can send Markus a message directly on Telegram or WhatsApp by scanning the QR code images directly below:

Markus is extremely attentive to our community members and will write back to you so you can coordinate a phone call quickly and efficiently.

Again, this is not a project I expected to be able to offer you, as it sold out shortly after the plans were announced back in 2025.  

I had to push and push for you this, and after a good fight, I was able to get Markus to agree to release these 12 units to our community.

If you have been waiting for a serious Asunción entry point before the city’s next phase of growth becomes even more obvious, this is it.

Reach out to Markus right now at [email protected].


Speak soon,
Mikkel
