St. Lucia - Reasons why it is a fantastic location for investment:

St. Lucia is becoming a popular market within the property industry and one of the more interesting markets around. It’s similar to it’s neighbor, Barbados, in the sense that the island is beautiful, the people are friendly and they both have outstanding beaches – but the major difference is that St. Lucia’s property prices are about 40% to 60% lower than seen in Barbados.

The large tax breaks coupled with the Island’s natural immense beauty makes this a perfect place for investment, and housing in St. Lucia can earn reasonable rental returns.

Reasons for the hype surrounding St. Lucia:

• Direct flights from the U.K, Germany, Canada and the U.S. have enable St. Lucia to become on of the most accessible islands in the region. British airways have also increased the amount of direct flights from London.
• St. Lucia is a tax haven with no VAT, no capital gains tax, no inheritance tax and no estate tax.
• The new Health and Wellness Retreat will open mid-November 2011 (this month!) and has the support from private and government institutions. 
• St. Lucia’s first casino recently opened, plus a multi-million pound shopping mall, multi-screen cinema, and restaurant and bars. 
• Low crime rate.
