IRR:
IRR projection (Internal Rate of Return)
Base assumptions:
- Horizon: 10 years
- Land appreciation: 2% 4% annually
Estimated result:
- Conservative IRR: 8% 10%
- Moderate IRR: 11% 13%
- Optimistic IRR: 14% 16%
Includes:
- Annual agricultural cash flow
- Appreciation in land value
Key point: In agriculture, much of the actual gain comes from asset appreciation and production, not just annual income.
Comparison with other investments:
- Agricultural land (this property): annual return 10% 16%, medium risk, low liquidity. Real asset and production.
- Rental property: annual return 4% 7%, low risk, medium liquidity. More stable but lower return.
- Fixed-term deposits and bonds: annual return 3% 6%, low risk, high liquidity. Protection, not growth.
- Stocks: annual return 8% 15%, high risk, high liquidity. Volatile.
This asset not only generates a competitive annual return of 10% to 13%, but also protects capital in a productive real asset, with potential for sustained appreciation in one of Paraguay's strongest agricultural areas. It combines the stability of land with the profitability of an ongoing business.
