Buy a Second Home in Paradise
It was in 1492 that Christopher Columbus first set foot on the Island
of Guanahani--or San Salvador as it is know today--one of the 700 plus
islands that make up the archipelago known as the Commonwealth of the
Bahamas. Back then the sands were a golden white, the waters were
crystal clear and there were no income taxes. Little has changed.
If you want to buy a permanent home,
getting permanent residence (without the right to work) is easy:
In order to speed up the entrance of foreign funds into the country,
international applications for annual or permanent residence by major
investors who purchase residences valued over $500,000 have practically
automatic approval.
How to obtain an annual residence permit: If you would like to
reside in the The Bahamas on an annual basis you can do so if your
spouse or dependent is a citizen of the Bahamas or if he/she is a permit
holder, if you are a independent economic resident, or if you are a
resident home owner, or seasonal resident home owner. You will also be
asked to present the necessary documents required.
Getting permanent residence: If you want to live here
permanently you must be of "good character" (you can take it that this
means they have no criminal record) and you should be prepared to show
evidence of financial support. Accelerated consideration of applications
for annual or permanent residence will be given to major international
investors and fit and proper owners of residence valued at $500,000 or
more.
