The ROI depends on the property you invest in. As a general rule, based on my experience, you can expect 2-5% net rental in a well-managed property with good occupancy levels. Rentals are seasonable so 50%-60% occupancy is a reasonable goal. You have to spend a minimum of 200,000 USD on a qualifying investment and at that minimum level there is no whole ownership currently available, hence the purchase would be a share of a property usually offered with shared use and annual net rental. Each developer offers different deals so it's important to speak with a Licensed Agent who is familiar with each approved property on the island so they can talk you through the pros and cons of the offering and give you some real insight. I also recommend doing your own analysis by speaking with the sales teams for each development. You must retain ownership of your approved property for a minimum of five years, and can sell it on after that. Construction timeline will depend on the development. If buying a share of villa, you can expect the villa to be completed within 12-18 months, but again this depends on the development. In some cases, the property will already be under construction which is ideal. Best of luck with your search!
