IRR projection (internal rate of return):
Base assumptions:
- Total investment: USD
- Annual profit (mid-range scenario): ≈ USD 2.9M 3.2M
- Horizon: 10 years
- Land appreciation: 2% 4% annually
Estimated result:
- Conservative IRR: 8% 10%
- Moderate IRR: 11% 13%
- Optimistic IRR: 14% 16%
This includes:
- Annual agricultural cash flow
- Appreciation in land value
Key point: In agriculture, much of the real 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.
- Real estate (rental): annual return 4% 7%, low risk, medium liquidity. More stable but lower return.
- Fixed-term deposits/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 cash flow 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 is an investment that combines the stability of land with the profitability of an ongoing business.
