About Los Troncos

Los Troncos is Mar del Plata's historic high-end residential neighbourhood, named for its log-fenced chalets and shaded by mature trees a few blocks back from Playa Grande. It pairs stately early-20th-century villas and quiet leafy streets with the buzzy Güemes commercial corridor of cafes, boutiques and restaurants, making it one of the most liveable year-round addresses in the city. For investors, Los Troncos offers a blend of capital preservation and rental appeal: large period houses and modern infill apartments draw both long-term professional tenants and affluent summer renters seeking a calmer base near the beach. Pricing sits in the city's mid-to-upper band, broadly US$1,500-1,800/m2 for quality apartments, with gross long-let yields near the ~5% national mark and stronger summer short-let upside. Established demand, scarcity of large lots and proximity to Playa Grande support steady USD appreciation around 4-6%.
