The brief

The reason to consider it.

Secure your piece of Grand Bahama with this spacious 15,000-square-foot canal lot in the quiet Queens Cove community of Freeport. Featuring 100 feet of serene waterfront, this property offers an affordable entry into the market, perfect for a peaceful retreat or a future investment. The lot is situated on a tranquil, closed canal system. While this section does not provide boat access to the Hawksbill Creek or the open ocean, it offers a safe, calm environment for local fishing or kayaking right from your backyard. It is a fantastic spot for those who appreciate a still-water view and a slower pace of life. Located just a short distance from Cumberland Drive, the property provides a private, secluded feel while keeping you close to essential amenities. While city water and electricity are currently located at the main road, they can be installed and extended to the site. At this price point, 28 Suffolk Street is a rare find.

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
