What people say about Bonaire

Sources agree that foreigners face no legal bar to buying on Bonaire; the practical hurdles are residence status (owning does not give the right to live there year-round) and financing.

  • Mixed Foreigners can buy freely; the open question is the right to live there, which is a separate residence-permit matter
  • Mixed Transfer tax and closing-cost figures differ between sources (about 4% vs 5%); get a written notary quote
  • Mixed Part of the land is government leasehold with annual ground rent; affects financing and resale
  • Concern Financing is the main hurdle: local lenders, 30-40% down payment, Dutch banks reluctant
