The brief

The reason to consider it.

Hurricane distressed opportunity.

This two-acre estate features a 1,800-square-foot structure with renovation potential. The original house was built in the 1960s, with an addition to the rear in the late 1990s. The original foundation and a 40,000-gallon cistern remain intact. The property also includes a concrete swimming pool that can be upgraded.

Enjoy 360-degree views of New Plymouth and Black Sound. A public dock is located within 50 yards, and beach access is a two-minute walk.

With a repairable home and pool, this property could be operational in under six months, offering significant savings compared to new construction. With envisioned renovations, a new structure, upgraded pool, and native landscaping, the rental potential would be limitless.

What people say about Bahamas

Sources agree that foreigners can own Bahamian property outright and that an ordinary home purchase needs a registration filing through a Bahamian lawyer, not a discretionary permit.

  • Positive Foreign buyers mostly register rather than seek a permit; permit applies to large or commercial land
  • Mixed Closing costs are dominated by a 10% transfer VAT for foreign buyers, usually split with the seller, plus legal fees
  • Mixed Annual property tax is being reshaped in 2026 (new foreign owner-occupied category), and Bahamian realtors dispute fairness
  • Concern Vacant land owned by foreigners carries a notably heavier tax until built on
