The Vehicles, Real Estate and Services categories offer a safe, practical and reliable experience within the largest marketplace in Latin America so that users can solve their needs. They are active in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Uruguay and Peru, with a different business model than the rest of the platform: the publications in this section have a fixed monthly price and no commission is charged per sale.

Throughout these years we have acquired and generated alliances with leading companies in the industry, such as Guía de Inmuebles y Metros Cúbicos (Mexico), Tu Carro (Colombia), Portal Inmobiliario (Chile) and TuInmueble (Venezuela and Colombia), among others. At the same time, through strategic links with third parties and solutions of our ecosystem, we have introduced more financing options that significantly improve the user experience.

At present, the category has approximately 5.9 million ads and 103 million visits per month.

Real Estate

Mercado Libre Real Estate is the largest platform for buying, selling and renting real estate in the region, which offers a safe and reliable experience for owners and tenants, so that they can design the future they dream of. In addition, the category is consolidated as a strategic resource to boost the real estate and development business in the region.

The platform offers three types of offers: sale, rent and temporary rent of both real estate and direct owners. The category also offers the possibility of making micro investments in different projects, a trend that grows day by day among younger users.

Vehicles

Mercado Libre Vehicles is one of the leading vehicle purchase platforms in the region, allowing buyers and sellers to connect with each other in a simple and secure way. It offers a wide variety of publications including both new and second-hand cars, trucks and vans, motorcycles, nautical, agricultural machinery, among others. The purchase process may include complementary services such as detailed information by catalog in the technical sheet of the publications, verification of the identity of both parties, seller reputation system, access to credit and curatorship of selected used cars, among others. The service for users looking for a vehicle to buy is free and, unlike e-commerce, the seller is not charged a commission per sale, but a fixed monthly price for each publication.

Recently, the category introduced the chance of financing the purchase of vehicles by accessing personal loans at preferential rates through third parties, which can be accessed quickly and 100% online. These proposals are in force in Brazil (in partnership with Banco Itaú, BV, Bradesco and Daycoval), in Argentina (with Galicia and Santander banks), in Mexico (through Créditas) and in Colombia (Santander bank, Banco de Bogotá and Sufi by Bancolombia. Also, with fintech Mezubo), offering users more shopping options.
