A steep mountainside property of 2 Hectares (5 acres) with approximately 43,000 SQFT (4,000m2) of total greenhouse area. The property is a 12 minutes drive from the town of Paute, which is 40 minutes from the city of Cuenca. The property is primarily used for growing Tomatoes and Babaco. Growing outdoors there is lots of Alfalfa, a few Melons, a few Peach trees, and a small forest of Tree Tomato trees although most of them have fallen victim to a disease that affects Tree Tomato trees and therefore produce no fruit. There are a few small concrete barns that hold pigs, and guinea pigs but there are no animals being included with the sale of the property.
At current market prices they gross about $2,000 per month from sales and have payroll expenses of $630 per month ($10 per work day, per person, with 3 workers).
Two of the four greenhouses are new, having been made in June of 2009. They are 10,764 SQFT (1000m2) & 16,146 SQFT (1500m2) and combined they cost the owners $19,000. The company that manufactures the plastic has a 3 year warranty for it. The oldest of the four greenhouses (5,382 SQFT / 500m2) is located near the creek along the bottom border of the property. It is four years old and the plastic is still intact.
The property has electricity as well as full strength cell phone signal for both of Ecuador’s two largest cell phone service providers. They have 24 hour, 7 days a week irrigation water rights.
