CLA shopping mall in Maipú, Chile, known as Boulevard Terrazas de Maipú, has faced financial difficulties after accumulating over $20 million in unpaid debts. The mall, which belonged to the Jepsen family's real estate company, sought judicial reorganization in 2023 but was rejected by creditors, leading to forced liquidation. The largest debt was owed to Scotiabank for a mortgage loan of around $17.8 billion, along with other debts totaling approximately $1.6 billion. After legal disputes, including allegations of hidden assets against the Jepsen family, the creditors approved the mall's liquidation last December. The first auction was scheduled for January 14, 2026, with a minimum price of 400,000 UF ($15.9 billion at the time), but it failed. A new auction is set for August 12, 2026, with a reduced minimum price of 350,000 UF ($14.3 billion). The property includes the land, 14,500 square meters of built space, four underground levels with parking, two commercial floors with seven active Cinépolis cinema screens, 18 other commercial units, terraces, rooftops, storage areas, and three sales modules. It also includes current rental agreements with six commercial operators.
