This property starts at the beginning of the stone wall on the lower corner of the lot, and the grounds have been cleared to expose the mature fruit trees on site. New flooring, a new bathroom built with handicap accessibility in mind, countertops, and updated electrical from the weather head to the outlets are just a few of the recent updates. Solar, whole house AC/generator, pool, and an outdoor cooking area complete this comforting and clean home, which has a successful rental history and sunsets you need to see for yourself.

What people say about US Virgin Islands

Sources agree that the US Virgin Islands is simple to enter for Americans, since it is US territory, but costly to run once there.

  • Concern WAPA electricity is expensive and outages are routine; backup power is treated as standard
  • Concern Insurance is a hard market: higher premiums, large percentage windstorm deductibles, trouble for wood-frame homes; flood is separate
  • Mixed Closings are attorney-led, take longer than on the mainland, and need a USVI-licensed lender; surveys matter on irregular hillside lots
  • Mixed Condo costs are driven by windstorm insurance; check reserves and master policy before buying
