Obarrio, Panama Real Estate

    Obarrio is the heart of Panama City’s financial district: Calle 50 and its parallels concentrate banks, law firms, restaurants and mixed office-residential towers. It is a central, walkable area with one of the highest formal-employment densities in the country, served by Metro Line 1 (Iglesia del Carmen station).

    For investment, Obarrio stands out in three products: offices for professionals and SMEs, street-level retail with office-worker foot traffic, and mid-size apartments for executives who want to live near work. Rental liquidity is among the highest in the city thanks to constant demand from the banking and corporate ecosystem.
