Before we go further, I'd like to thank my dad and Jackie Pascher for their help putting this tour together. Before finding our piece of Anguilla land, my dad was determined to find the perfect Caribbean property. He took tons of photos of just about every square inch of Anguilla.

Jackie is simply the most knowledgeable and hard-working realtor that my dad has ever met. More about Jackie Pascher, here.

Jackie is invaluable in helping you get over the government hurdles to owning land.

Make sure you discuss these issues with Jackie.

Even my dad (who likes to take things into his own hands), did not want to handle these issues by himself...

  • the alien land holders license application -- "non-belongers" have to go through quite a process, but it's worth it
  • transfer tax and stamp duty
  • performance payment (if you buy undeveloped land)
  • finding the right builder/contractor (if you own undeveloped land)annual property taxes
  • renting your villa or condo.

While some people are put off by these issues, they (along with Anguilla's obscurity) are what make Anguilla real estate, by far, the best bargain to be had in the Caribbean. Jackie can walk you past, through, and around the hurdles so you can own your piece of Caribbean paradise.

OK, ready?

How To Use The Anguilla Real Estate Guide

Step #1) You should be armed with a Google Map. And that reminds me...

Let's say that you really want to hunt down that perfect property by yourself. Once you take this round-the-island tour, you should be able to go just about anywhere and find raw land, villa or condo that interests you.

Purchasing a condo is easy -- just knock on the office door and inquire. And I suppose you could do the same if you fell in love with a villa. But there's a better way...

For villas and raw land... you can find any property, who owns it, and contact information (including the phone number) at the Land and Survey office. You can also check the title. A surveyor should also survey the property boundaries and road access, etc.

But it's easiest to just have a great real estate agent handle all this for you. In any event, you don't know the market and could very well end up paying way too much if "you're in love." Even if it is the best real estate bargain, why pay too much?

Step #2) Click down to start the Anguilla real estate guide, touring each beach, seeing the opportunities available in every area of the island.

The photographic, round-the-island tour that you are about to take should give you some great ideas of what you are looking for...

  • lively, nightspot oceanfront, or
  • quiet, secluded beachfront, or
  • nearer the valley, or
  • far away and remote, or even
  • inland, where the views can be spectacular and the prices cheaper.

Step #3) While you are touring, think about whether you'd prefer to own undeveloped land and build your own dream home (my dad's dream), purchase a villa, or (the most bother-free option) buy a condo (there are some beauties available -- and management takes care of all the bothers of owning and renting while you're away).

Each has their own advantages and disadvantages that Jackie can explain further.

Some of the spots on this tour are super-secret places, discovered by my Dad. He has driven down every dusty, pot-holed road on the island... some that aren't even on the Land and Survey map (but WILL be on Google Maps!)... even across fields. He doesn't mind sharing -- the island is so unknown, and so few properties change hands each year (only about 20!), that he's glad to share his Anguilla real estate secrets.
