The brief

The reason to consider it.

A rare opportunity to own two half-acre hillside parcels just minutes from Cruz Bay. One parcel features two rustic wooden cottages, a one-bedroom and a studio, both open-air and full of island character. The cottages require some work but offer a great opportunity for a handy buyer to restore and create a live-in and rental setup. The second half-acre parcel is vacant, providing additional space for expansion, gardens, or future development. Peaceful hillside setting with plenty of room for parking and flexibility to create your own island retreat.

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
