Investing in a 2-bedroom apartment in Pueblo Libre, Lima

A 2-bedroom apartment in Pueblo Libre yields about 6.3% gross on a long-term rental. That's the number I'd anchor to. Gross means before service charges, taxes, maintenance, and the months the place sits empty between tenants, so plan on the net being meaningfully lower.

On Airbnb, I don't have enough for this size and district to give you an honest figure. The short-term coverage here is too thin to call. I'm not going to guess a number and dress it up as analysis. If the short-stay play is your whole thesis, Pueblo Libre 2-beds aren't where the data backs you up yet.

So who does this suit? Someone who wants a straightforward long-term hold and is comfortable with a 6.3% gross that translates into a more modest net. If you need the higher turnover and higher headline yields that short-term rentals sometimes promise, you're flying blind here.

This is what the numbers say, nothing more. It isn't investment advice, and you should run your own costs before committing.
