From our founder

The whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

Knowing a place well takes time. I live here too, and I’ve built a life that I love, with people I trust and places that feel like home. I’d like to share that world with you, and help you find your own.

Living here has shown me how the different strengths of Argentina, Uruguay and Paraguay complement each other. Together, they form our Privilege Triangle. These are the countries I focus on, exploring them myself and working alongside local specialists whose judgement I trust.

I have chosen to keep Latin Privilege Advisory intentionally boutique because I care about how your life here will feel. I want you to arrive knowing who you can turn to, with the important details already thought through and room to enjoy the things that brought you here.

The time you gain is yours: for the people closest to you, your interests and the pleasure of discovering what life here can become.

01 · Your first step

Your personal strategy

We consider where you want to live, what your family needs and how your business fits. Your strategy brings those choices together before you commit to a country or an application.

Fixed-fee personal strategy

Includes an agreed allowance for independent legal and tax review and related coordination, brought together in your written strategy.

Further specialist review is scoped and quoted separately, with the work and budget agreed before it begins.

  • A country-by-country plan, with independent legal and tax review of the agreed questions.
  • Your strategy in writing, with recommendations, specialist conclusions and a clear sequence of steps.
  • A personal walkthrough, followed by an agreed scope and budget for implementation.
Scope & terms

We consider your life, family, business and existing arrangements together. Your written strategy explains the recommended countries and residency routes, the reasons behind them and the order of work. Independent lawyers and tax advisers review the questions agreed in your brief within the included allowance. We bring their conclusions into the plan and walk through your PDF with you and, if you wish, your existing advisers.

  • Your priorities, existing commitments and intended way of life considered together
  • Country and residency recommendations, with a role for each country in a combined plan
  • Independent legal and tax review of the agreed questions, within the included allowance
  • A written strategy PDF setting out recommendations, specialist conclusions, timing and the proposed implementation scope
  • A walkthrough of your strategy with you and, if you wish, your family office or private advisers

Residency and broader implementation begin with a personal strategy prepared by Latin Privilege Advisory. Its fee is separate and is not credited towards later services. Implementation follows your review and acceptance of the plan. A Discovery Visit can take place before or after strategy. Arrival and settling-in support for clients introduced by advisers or family offices can be arranged under a separate agreed brief.

Your strategy may cover one country or a combination. The included allowance covers independent legal and tax review and related coordination on the questions agreed in your brief. Further review beyond this allowance is charged at the combined hourly rate for counsel and coordination, with the scope and fixed budget agreed in writing before additional work begins. The appointed professionals issue their own opinions. Legal documents, company formation and implementation are scoped separately. Work included in your agreed residency package remains included.

02 · Before you decide

See it for yourself.

Before choosing a country, spend time there with people who understand what matters to your family. Elena helps shape your brief; our team plans and delivers a private programme of neighbourhoods, homes, schools and everyday life.

  • Preparation, local coordination and a team reserved for your programme

This separately quoted premium service includes our team’s preparation time and an agreed allowance for the first groceries and essentials. Rent, deposits, major purchases and later restocking are separate.

Where our team needs to travel, necessary transport, accommodation and meals are separately budgeted at a standard consistent with your itinerary. Any travel-only team days are quoted separately. All arrangements, fees and expenses are agreed before booking.

A visit helps you decide where you feel at home. If you choose to proceed with residency, we first agree your personal strategy.

Available before or after your personal strategy, following review and acceptance of your request. We agree the itinerary, reserved days, team and timings before payment or scheduling. Property and school visits are confirmed individually.

From a foothold to an operating base

Establishing your business in the region

Establish a regional operation or assess moving part of your existing business, with trusted local lawyers, accountants and company-formation specialists. The company’s activity and your personal residence are considered together.

Individually quoted

An individual proposal, with scope and fees agreed before work begins.

  • Company formation and local registrations with independent professionals.
  • Accounting, operating requirements and practical setup.
  • Uruguay’s free-zone and software options assessed where relevant.
Scope & terms

Business formation and related coordination are quoted individually, outside the residency package. The proposal identifies our work, independent professional fees, registrations and any premises or operating costs before you proceed.

Independent local professionals advise on the legal form, tax treatment and registrations. Latin Privilege Advisory coordinates the agreed work and keeps it connected to your wider plans. Residence, company formation and eligibility for a tax incentive are separate questions.

The discussion starts with your activity, customers, team and where decisions will be made. Local specialists assess the appropriate company form, registrations and applicable rules. Formation and banking are planned together, with the bank’s requirements considered separately.

A place to call your own

A place for the life you are planning.

A home to make your own, an investment for the future, or a private rental prepared before you arrive. We help you find the right place and bring the practical details together around the way you want to live.

Buying property

A home for the way you want to live.

We bring together local agents who know their neighbourhoods well and coordinate the search, shortlist and viewings. Your priorities and budget guide the search, whether you’re looking for a home of your own or an investment property.

Once you have found a property you want to pursue, local lawyers and tax advisers handle the professional checks and purchase arrangements. We keep the steps coordinated around your plans.

For today, or the move ahead.

A property can give your Plan B a home while your main life continues elsewhere. It may earn rental income in the meantime, with local management and your future use considered from the outset. You can also buy solely as an investment.

With trusted local specialists, we consider rental demand, expected income after costs and the practicalities of ownership from abroad. If the property is also your future home, tenancy terms and availability need to fit the timing of your move. Preparing these details early makes the next step easier when you decide it is time.

Private rental search

A home ready for your arrival.

Arrive in Argentina, Uruguay or Paraguay with a private home already arranged. Working with trusted local property specialists, we find a rental in a neighbourhood that suits your way of life. If you prefer a home to a hotel, you can experience its cafés, shops and daily rhythm from the beginning.

Your home can be ready to live in from the moment you arrive: the first grocery shop done, the fridge stocked and everyday essentials in place. We plan around your preferences, dietary needs and any other requests, so the things that matter to you are waiting when you open the door.

If you would like to stay for several months or longer, we can arrange the tenancy with that in mind. The rental period and any agreed extension options are confirmed with the owner before you travel, so you know where you will stay and on what terms.

Quoted individually. Our fee includes preparation time and an agreed allowance for the first groceries and household essentials.

Our relationships reach across Latin America, with property searches in Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay, Brazil and Panama. Tell us if another destination is part of your plans; we will confirm the right local team for your brief.

Our team personally welcomes and accompanies clients in Argentina, Uruguay and Paraguay. Beyond the Triangle, trusted independent partners lead the local work.

Fees & practical arrangements

Rental preparation is a separate premium engagement from Discovery Visits, residency and Welcome Home. Rent, deposits, major purchases and later restocking are additional.

Precious metals

Your gold, wherever life takes you.

Whether you already hold gold or want to buy it as part of your move to Latin America, we introduce experienced specialists who can help with purchasing, storage and international transport.

Your personal introduction is included.

You arrange and pay for purchases, storage, transport and insurance directly with the provider. Any additional legal work is agreed and priced separately.

Gold & your move

Where will you keep your gold?

You may prefer to keep your gold where it is, move some closer to your new home, or buy new bars for storage abroad. We start with where you want to hold it and how you want to access it.

We make a personal introduction to a dedicated manager at an established international precious-metals firm serving private clients and family offices. Their team helps with purchases, storage and transport.

Buying & storage

Buy physical gold or arrange storage for bars you already own. With allocated storage, specific bars are recorded in your name. Your specialist helps you choose a vault location that suits your plans.

Moving your gold

Arrange professional transport between countries, with customs documents, insurance and delivery planned together. Your specialist explains the route and the steps involved before the move.

Access as life changes

Stay in touch with the same manager when you want to buy more, move your gold to another vault or arrange to collect it. You have a familiar person to turn to as your plans develop.

The hourly rate applies to work beyond your included hours and occasional help between booked months or after your programme. We agree the scope and estimated time before that work begins.

Welcome Home is separate from the residency package. Hours cover the total time our team spends on research, calls, visits and coordination. School fees, lessons, purchases, travel and independent providers’ charges are agreed and paid separately.
