Anticrético — a lump sum instead of rent
Bolivia has a housing arrangement almost unknown outside it. Under anticrético the occupier hands the owner a large lump sum and pays no rent at all, living in the property and recovering the whole sum at the end of the term.
The owner's return is the use of the money. A US reader seeing a Bolivian contract with a very large payment and no rent is not looking at a purchase or a loan — it is a housing contract, and we explain the instrument rather than translating the figure and leaving it.
Anticrético is registered
Because the sum at risk is large, an anticrético is normally executed by escritura pública and registered at the Derechos Reales property registry, which records it as a charge on the property.
That registration is what protects the occupier if the property is sold or mortgaged, and its absence is a real exposure. The registry entry is on the document and we translate it.
Ordinary leases, and the guarantee
A conventional contrato de alquiler runs alongside, typically with one or two months' deposit and frequently a garante — a guarantor — whose identity details and sometimes property are named in the contract.
A guarantor is not a US co-signer and we describe the position rather than substituting a familiar label.
The boliviano, and the cédula suffix
Amounts are in bolivianos at an effectively fixed rate to the dollar, and anticrético sums are frequently quoted in US dollars. A contract states which and we name it on the first line.
Parties are identified by cédula number, frequently with a departmental suffix — LP, CB, SC — which is part of the identifier. See our Spanish page.
