Understand.
We begin with your plans and priorities. A first conversation helps us understand what draws you to Uruguay and what you hope to find.

We act solely for buyers of property in Uruguay.
A personal approach, from search to ownership.
Why Uruguay
Atlantic beaches. Open countryside.
Room for a different pace of life.
Uruguay offers rule of law, strong property rights and a stable, prosperous society. It is often called the Switzerland of South America. The comparison is fair, but it undersells the place.
From the coast to the interior, we help you understand the country and find the setting that suits you.

The practice
We are a London based practice acting solely for buyers of property in Uruguay.
We lead every stage personally, drawing on local knowledge, detailed research and trusted counsel in both countries. Your interests guide the search.
We begin with your plans and priorities. A first conversation helps us understand what draws you to Uruguay and what you hope to find.
From research and viewings to negotiation and acquisition, we guide the search and introduce the legal, banking and residency specialists you need.
The relationship does not end at completion. We remain on hand for whatever ownership brings, with introductions and practical support on the ground.
Property intelligence
Our proprietary Property Intelligence system brings together advanced data science, AI and machine learning to identify and analyse properties across Uruguay. Our unique insights reveal patterns a listing alone cannot show, helping us compare opportunities and put prices in context.
Every insight is weighed against local knowledge, time on the ground and a clear understanding of what matters to you.
Investing in Uruguay
Uruguay rewards a long view.
Foreign buyers own on the same terms as Uruguayans, capital moves freely, and the country holds an investment grade credit rating. These are sound foundations for owning land and property.
We set out the detail in our Uruguay briefing: the facts and figures behind the case, drawn from our own research.

“Life brings unexpected joys. Uruguay, for me, was one of them.”
James ran his own travel company for 15 years before stepping back in 2020 to lead a family property business.
His two long-standing interests – property and travel – converged in Uruguay, which he first visited in 2024 and where he now owns a home.
Struck by how little the country and its property market were understood beyond the region, he founded James Anthony & Co. to guide international buyers through a market he had first navigated for himself.
