Enrique — Founder & Managing Director, ALTURA LIVING.sv

FOUNDER & MANAGING DIRECTOR

Enrique

Vancouver, BC · Canada-Wide Operations
Strategic Advisory · HNW Clients

Most people enter El Salvador's real estate market and get worked over. Enrique founded ALTURA LIVING.sv so that international buyers don't have to.

For more than two decades, he operated inside Canada's most demanding corporate arenas — Sony Canada, Zenith Marketing, and PlayStation — ranking among the nation's Top 3 national sales consultants three years running, then leading sales training, then directing territory expansion as PlayStation's top Field Manager and Expansion Strategist. That career placed him on the seller's side of every high-pressure transaction there is. He knows the tactics, the scripts, and every way a price gets engineered against the buyer — because he ran that playbook at the highest level. ALTURA LIVING.sv exists to put that knowledge on one side of the table only: yours.

The firm is the buyer's Strategic Proxy for acquiring real estate in El Salvador as a foreigner — not a brokerage. Enrique lists no properties and takes no seller commissions. Instead, he engages and directs a bench of licensed, experienced Salvadoran professionals — attorneys, structural engineers, and administrative-law and compliance specialists — and audits their work on the buyer's behalf, so that everyone performing the regulated work answers to the buyer and never to the seller.

Every mandate is held to the same standard before a single dollar moves: independent title verification through the CNR, full legal and regulatory due diligence, independent valuation, and structural audit. The work runs across two jurisdictions — from Colonia Escalón in San Salvador, where Enrique has been on the ground since January 2025, to North American operations in Vancouver, BC. Fully bilingual, English/Spanish, he advises principals and their counsel directly in either language.

The window in El Salvador is open now, and serious capital already knows it. ALTURA is founder-led and deliberately selective, accepting a limited number of mandates so that each buyer works with Enrique directly. The only real question is whether you enter this market with a proxy whose sole loyalty is your capital — or walk in alone.

THE BUYER'S PROXY MANIFESTO

We do not list properties. We do not represent sellers. We do not earn commissions from developers.

ALTURA LIVING exists for one purpose: to stand between the buyer and every risk embedded in a cross-border real estate transaction. Our mandate fee is paid by you, the buyer — because our loyalty is owed exclusively to you. When we sit at the table, we sit on your side. Always.

THE PROXY GUARANTEE

If we identify a material risk that was not disclosed to you by the selling party, and you choose not to proceed — your mandate fee is fully credited toward your next engagement.

Our incentive is aligned with yours: to find the truth, protect your capital, and ensure every transaction is entered with full transparency. The Proxy Guarantee is our binding commitment to that standard.

THE VETTED NETWORK

Every Professional at Your Table Is Personally Verified.

ALTURA LIVING is your Strategic Proxy — but a mandate of this scope requires a full ensemble of specialists. Every attorney, accountant, notary, banker, surveyor, and service provider we engage on your behalf is personally vetted, fully credentialed, and held to the same fiduciary standard we hold ourselves to.

FULLY LICENSED

Every professional in our network holds active, verifiable licensing in their respective field — registered with the appropriate Salvadoran regulatory authority, professional college, or international governing body.

FORMALLY CERTIFIED

Beyond baseline licensing, our specialists hold advanced certifications in their domains — including Salvadoran bar admissions, CPA accreditations, real estate appraisal certifications, and DINAC compliance credentials.

EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE

Minimum 10+ years of active in-market experience required. Each professional has executed transactions, audits, or filings at the institutional level within the Salvadoran legal, financial, and regulatory ecosystem.

PERSONALLY VERIFIED

Every professional in our network has been personally vetted by the ALTURA LIVING founder team — through direct working relationships, documented case outcomes, and ongoing performance review. No one in our network is recommended on reputation alone.

THE VETTING STANDARD

If we wouldn't trust them with our own family's transaction — they don't enter our network.

ALTURA LIVING does not rent its network. We do not accept referral fees, kickbacks, or commissions from any professional in our vetted ecosystem. Every professional engaged on a mandate is selected solely on competence, credentials, and proven outcomes — never on commercial relationship.

When you engage ALTURA LIVING, you receive not only our independent Proxy oversight but full access to the only network in El Salvador that is built, managed, and held accountable to the buyer's interest alone.

All third-party professional fees are disclosed in the formal Mandate Agreement and billed at cost with zero markup. See 'Separate Fees & Expenses' for full breakdown.
