Investing in Property in Bahamas
Reasons to Invest
For tax free property investments in a Caribbean tropical paradise, The Bahamas offer unbeatable opportunities for both real estate investments and holiday home purchases.
Having continuously developed from over 270 years of democratic rule, the Bahamas has become the most politically stable country in the world. The friendliness of the locals and the attraction of the lifestyle in a spectacular environment, have offered an additional pull to investors keen on the buy-to-let market.
The size of the rental market to holiday makers in the Bahamas is exceptional. High end property provided to the short term rental clientele, enable excellent returns of up to 9%. Having a well established tourism market, the island nation of less than 350,000 residents, attracts in excess of 4.5 million visitors annually.
The economy, infrastructure, facilities and services in the country are of an exceptionally high standard, with a highly skilled workforce. The real estate market has long appealed to investors from the US and the UK, with high capital growth and continuous rental and re-sale demand. The local government has been pro-active in attracting foreign investors, along with assisting the local workforce with the creation of employment opportunities and taxation benefits.
The Bahamas features an ideal established property investment market that will continue to hold appeal for both inland and waterfront residences. A unique advantage of the market is with the ability to adapt to world economic situations, having a near endless supply of islands ready to be developed, continuously opening new opportunities to all investor levels.
