Whether you are looking for an investment or looking for a second home or ideal place to retire the Turks & Caicos has it all: beachfront, oceanfront and canal front homes; luxury condominiums; majestic hillside homes, tracts of undeveloped land and private islands to call your own. Visit our website to find out what is available in Turks and Caicos real estate.

Purchasing a home or other property here is not much different to what you are probably accustomed to. Once a price is agreed a purchase and sale agreement is prepared, describing the property, price and terms, and any other conditions. A 10% deposit is generally paid under the terms of the sales contract to the seller’s attorney and is held in escrow until closing, which is usually within 30 days. At closing, executed land transfer forms are provided by the seller to the purchaser in exchange for payment of the balance of the purchase price. Original signatures are required and signing must be witnessed and signed by a notary with his/her stamp affixed.

This article (or list) gives you details of the airlines flying into the Turks and Caicos Islands together with basic information on getting around and staying connected.  We do recommend that you have your travel agent arrange as much for you in advance of your arrival as possible, but the following may help if you prefer to find your own way.

The first thing to understand about the Turks & Caicos Islands is that it is a small place, and there is limited inventory on the market.  We get lots of enquiries from people with a very specific idea of what they want - e.g. 2 storey, 3 BD / 4 BTH home on beach w/pool; jacuzzi; tennis court, etc.  While those sorts of enquiries can occasionally be accommodated for the most part people have to aim for the properties that come closest to what they are looking for. 

None of the real estate companies in the jurisdiction has a large enough inventory to have a real functional website search engine which consistently returns options on specific searches.  That fact makes it difficult to get a sense of comparable pricing and the market in general.  Bearing that in mind I have put together a list of basic considerations (obviously not comprehensive) which I hope will help prospective purchasers with basic research and dealing with agents.
