Kicking Back With Real Estate

By Jason King


Sun, sand, and surf. Two out of three elements are requirements for a good beach trip, and the third is just an ancillary, optional benefit. But all three are still ingredients in a good trip. However, sometimes a vacationer may want their trip to last a little longer than a few days. Maybe they may want the thing to be extended indefinitely. In cases like those, they would do well to look into maybe acquiring some St Kitts real estate.

St Kitts is actually a nickname. The proper name is St Christopher island. Along with its neighbor Nevis, ins composes the country of the Federation of Saint Christopher and Nevis, named for the two islands that comprise it.

The thing about the island is that it is tropical. Which means that, for the majority of the time, the weather can be warm. The waters around it are clean and clear, because tourism is a huge sector of the economy. The reason people want real estate there is because of the fact it is essentially a tropical paradise all year round, or at least for most of the year.

Now, sometimes, a vacation can turn into something a little more permanent. To get residency or citizenship, the checkbook should be ready and the account linked to the checks should have at least six zeroes and two commas. This is because buying citizenship can run up costs of at least a quarter million, and that is in US dollars.

But if a person wants to own property but does not want to move to an island full time, then they still have option. Hotels and resorts are popular with tourists, which mean that they can be teeming with thousands of strangers during certain seasons. A vacation home insures a measure of privacy while still being relaxing.

Of course, there is the option of purchasing property only to turn into a money making scheme. Even an empty lot can be quite expensive when situated right on the water. It is then necessary to make some of the money spent back, and the best way to that would simply be to flip it. Unless there is some sort of cataclysmic weather phenomena, the investment should be safe.

Now, while buying real estate is all well and good, a just going to a resort would be better. Unless one has enough money to hire household staff, then a resort is just going to be the best option is a vacationer wants to avoid having to do the little things like cooking and cleaning. Sure, they can be done, but a person trying to relax is not going to want to do them.

Island living can have its perks. For people who want to relax, the near constant sunshine and warm water should be more than capable of helping with that. No one judges a person for sleeping until noon on an island either.

Buying properties can be a great investment. Whether it be money or enjoyment, an owner can get a lot out of a purchase. But there are steps that should be taken beforehand.
