🌴 Caribbean Real Estate Outlook 2025

Mid-Year Review & Strategic Outlook

The first half of 2025 has confirmed what savvy investors anticipated: Caribbean residential real estate continues to outperform β€” particularly in USD-based, politically stable markets like the Bahamas, Barbados, and Turks & Caicos.

High-net-worth individuals are turning to the region for asset protection, lifestyle flexibility, and tax neutrality. We've seen record-breaking luxury transactions, a spike in Residency-by-Investment applications, and continued growth in branded developments backed by global capital.

Outlook: For the second half of 2025, all signs point to accelerating demand. With limited supply in prime waterfront locations, the next few months offer a unique entry window β€” before prices climb further and inventory contracts.

Top 5 Caribbean Real Estate Markets (USD-Based) in 2025

1. The Bahamas – Premier Market for Tax-Free USD Investments

The Bahamas remain the top choice for strategic investors due to:

  • Zero income, inheritance, or capital gains tax
  • USD-based economy & full ownership rights for foreigners
  • Proximity to Miami and legal stability

Luxury properties commonly trade above $3.5M USD, particularly in Albany, Paradise Island, and Grand Bahama. The market has seen over 50% price growth since 2020.
