FAQ
Fifty five percent of usable Bahamas real estate is owned by the government with all other property vested in private ownership or tagged as �wet' Crown land.
For savvy investors, the Bahamas can be a profitable venture. Investing in Bahamian real estate can yield promising returns thanks to its booming tourism industry, stable economy, and capital growth. From beachfront condos to luxury villas, a diverse range of properties suit your investment strategies.
There are no restrictions on foreigners buying property in the Bahamas. Property purchasers are eligible for an annual Home Owners Resident Card, and those buying a property valued at $500,000 and above are given priority in permanent residence applications.
The structure of a Bahamian trust conventionally includes a settlor, trustees, and beneficiaries, and may also feature a protector to mediate between the settlor and trustee, thus adding an extra layer of governance.
You can move assets to an irrevocable trust to lower the size of your taxable estate. The grantor retained annuity trust, intentionally defective grantor trust, charitable remainder trust, and dynasty trust are trusts commonly used to minimize estate taxes.
The downside of irrevocable trust is that you can't change it. And you can't act as your own trustee either. Once the trust is set up and the assets are transferred, you no longer have control over them, which can be a huge danger if you aren't confident about the reason you're setting up the trust to begin with.
Land trusts This is one of the best types of trusts if you want to protect real estate from judgments or keep your future development plans private. They're generally revocable trusts that become irrevocable upon your death, which also protects the property from the probate process.
Irrevocable trusts This can give you greater protection from creditors and estate taxes. As stated above, you can set up your will or revocable trust to automatically create irrevocable trusts at the time of your death. When you use your will to create irrevocable trusts, it's called a testamentary trust.
A security trust deed (STD) is a legal document that is used to create a security interest in assets. In the context of securitisation, the assets that are typically securitised are pools of loans.
The Purpose Trust Act, 2004 recognizes that Bahamian trusts can be established for non-charitable purposes, including holding, or investing in shares in a company or other assets which may amount to trust property.
