Caribbean increases its appeal to foreign property investors

Posted Thu Apr 08 20:09:00 UTC 2010

The Caribbean is a true paradise on earth. Turquise blue water, white sandy beaches, sunny blue sky and exotic vegetation lure thousands of tourists on its islands each year. But, it’s also known as a great place to buy a property either as a holiday retreat or even to become your first residence. Now, the Caribbean announced new residency rules – the Economic Citizen Partnership what allows purchasers to become islands residents.

This Partnership agreement states, that people making a minimum investment of US$350’000 in a property are now entitled to apply for island citizenship. Advantages of a dual citizenship provide the purchaser with better relocation alternatives, ease access to the destination and of course more likely much favourable tax conditions than in many major economies. The first Islands like St. Kitts and Nevis, Dominican Republic, Belize and Dominica (more to follow) who participate in this agreement quickly become sought-after destinations for this type of purchaser.
