Guatemala's housing sector is gearing up for Expocasa 2026, a significant fair scheduled from July 24 to 26 at Fórum Majadas. The event promises to bring together over 70 housing projects, developers, financial institutions, and construction companies, offering a comprehensive platform for prospective homeowners.
Attendees will have the opportunity to compare various residential projects, explore diverse financing options, and receive personalized advice from banks. A key feature this year includes workshops led by financial institutions designed to guide visitors through the complexities of mortgage pre-qualification and informed financial decision-making.
Each year we seek to innovate to offer a better experience for visitors and exhibitors. This edition will feature workshops taught by banks to make better financial decisions, a family agenda with activities for all ages, and an Aerometer booth.
Hugo Bosque, president of the Organizing Committee for Expocasa 2026, highlighted the fair's commitment to innovation and visitor experience. He noted the inclusion of family-friendly activities and an informative booth from the Aerómetro, ensuring a well-rounded event for all ages.
Juan Pablo Estrada, president of the Board of Directors of the Guatemalan Chamber of Construction (CGIC), emphasized Expocasa's role as a crucial meeting point. He stated that the fair facilitates the dream of homeownership for Guatemalan families while simultaneously fostering business opportunities that bolster the construction sector. The CGIC also pointed out that only 38.1% of Guatemalan households live in adequate housing, underscoring the importance of such events in bridging the gap between families and housing solutions.
Expocasa has consolidated itself as the space where all the actors that make the dream of owning a home possible converge. Our goal is to facilitate that process for Guatemalan families and, at the same time, generate business opportunities that strengthen the construction sector.
