Lacustre Vivo

Glossary and FAQ

Terms used in the manifesto and perspectives.

Year-round lease

Long-term residential rental for primary housing, not vacations.

Gentrification / touristification

External pressure raises prices and displaces local workers; neighborhoods empty off-season. We discuss models, not blaming vacationers.

Roots and upward mobility

Stay in the commune; move up in housing without being priced out.

Three rental models

Year-round; season ≥3 months (never nightly); nightly tourism in high-end stock that does not compete with local wages.

Occupancy (three meanings)

Inhabited vs empty home; booked nights; unlawful occupancy.

Law 21.461

Chilean law speeding collection/recovery for some residential leases when contracts are proper. Not legal advice.

Illustrative comparison
