Frequently asked questions

How do I find apartments for rent in Cali, Colombia?

Use the map and filters on Buskar: neighborhood, price, bedrooms and type of place (apartment, studio, room or house). Every listing shows photos of each space and how to contact the owner or agency.

What is “estrato” and how does it affect rent?

Estrato (1 to 6) is the classification Colombia uses to bill utilities. It doesn't set the rent, but it helps you estimate what you'll pay for water, electricity and gas in each area.

What does the “administración” fee cover?

It's the monthly building or complex fee for common areas, security and maintenance. Always ask whether it's included in the rent or paid separately.

What documents do landlords usually ask for?

Commonly an ID or passport, proof of income or employment, and, depending on the owner, a co-signer (codeudor) or a deposit. Requirements vary by listing, so confirm them before you visit.

Can foreigners, students and digital nomads rent in Cali?

It depends on each landlord. Ask before visiting whether they accept foreigners, short or monthly contracts, and whether the place is furnished.

How do I list my apartment, house or room?

Use the “Publish” button, fill in the details and add photos of each space. Both owners and agencies can post.
