TILLOO VACANT WATERFRONT

Available on request

The brief

The reason to consider it.

This property is 2.64 acres of sea-to-sea waterfront with nice elevations and 152 feet of frontage on the Sea of Abaco on The Bight of Loo on Tilloo Cay. It is overlooking a tranquil cove teeming with sea life and is very close to Tilloo Cut, with easy access to the ocean for deep-sea fishing and diving. This area is also near world-class bonefishing to the south and great snorkeling and diving, such as the Sandy Cay National Underwater Park. It is private, but very close to all the action in Hope Town/Elbow Cay, Lubbers Quarters, Little Harbor, and Marsh Harbor. The property has grid-tied electricity nearby.

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
