Punto Fijo Venezuela Real Estate for Foreign Investors
Punto Fijo anchors the Paraguaná Peninsula (Falcón state), home to Venezuela's Amuay and Cardón refineries — together forming one of the world's largest refinery complexes. Residential demand comes primarily from refinery workers, engineers, and support-services businesses. The SEZ designation for Paraguaná (under Venezuela's 2022 ZEE law) is attracting industrial and logistics investor interest. Coastal lots along the peninsula offer affordable beachfront at low price points.
