San Francisco, Panama: apartments and offices for sale

Our data does not give reliable coordinates for this entry, and the nearby links supplied (David, Boquete, Rio Hato and others) are in western and central Panama, not in Panama City's urban core. If these listings are indeed in the San Francisco district of Panama City, the relevant comparison is Panama City itself, a district with high-rise living near the bay and business areas. La Chorrera is a commuter market west of the capital.

David, Boquete and Alto Boquete are far away in Chiriquí province, so treat them as other markets. Always confirm the exact address before relying on any area description.

Panama gives foreigners the same property rights as citizens in most areas, with extra rules near borders and on certain coastal or island land. There is no need for residency to buy.

• Transfer tax is around 2% of the higher of price or registered value; verify current rates and exemptions on new builds.
• Use a lawyer to check the title at the Public Registry.
• Condominium purchases involve a maintenance fee and an owners' regulation.
• Residency programmes linked to property investment exist, but thresholds change, so check before buying.
