Whether you are looking for a Single Family Home, Condo, Townhouse, Vacant Land to Land Bank: whether Beachfront, Canal Front, Oceanfront, Oceanview, whatever your investment or lifestyle requirements I can navigate you through the process.
Discuss what money can buy here; we’ll help with the process of determining good value.
Make a list based on your needs and view each.
List all the pros and cons of each property to help create your shortlist and revisit what best suits you.
Make an offer on what you feel is a fair market price for your best property.
Once your offer is accepted, meet with a local attorney to discuss your way forward. It will serve you to meet with your attorney, whether you are buying now or in the future, as that is the person you will be sending your money to.
You will be paying a 10% earnest deposit to your attorney by wire transfer once you return home. You may also pay 10% of that as a reservation deposit to hold the property right away.
Once the deposit is with your attorney, the Seller’s attorney will prepare a formal sale & purchase agreement that you and the Seller will sign. At this point, the deposit is given to the Seller’s attorney to hold. The balance of funds is transferred to the island and is placed in escrow until the date of completion.
On the completion date, your attorney gives the Seller’s attorney the balance of funds in exchange for a transfer form signed by the Seller transferring the property to you.
The Seller’s attorney holds the funds until your attorney registers the transfer form with the land registry, showing you as the new owner. Because of the type of land registry system here in the Turks & Caicos Islands, the Crown guarantees title, so no title insurance is required.
The Seller typically pays the commission & each party pays their legal fees
Within 30 days of buying your piece of paradise, your attorney will pay the required stamp duty on your real estate investment, less any chattels (furniture & appliances).

The Process of Selling Your Turks & Caicos Islands Property

Visit our Homes in Paradise by Grace Bay Realty team in Regent Village on Regent Street to discuss your objectives.
Allow one of our GBR consultants to prepare a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) while you secure a property valuation from an on-island professional.
Arrange site inspection with our team to gather information on the unique characteristics of your property.
You may want to make some touchups on the property, such as painting or enhancing landscaping, to mitigate unnecessary improvements or repairs for the buyers.
For land listings, keep it clean and accessible, exposing all view opportunities. A viewing platform may serve you well.
Stage property for professional photography, put excess things in storage containers, and tidy up any clutter.
First impressions count! Ensure that the property is pristine for every viewing opportunity
Trust your GBR team to maximize your exposure through our international affiliations as well as all local opportunities not limited to TCREA. GBR will erect a visible For Sale sign on the property to grab the attention of potential buyers *looking around’. In the absence of a sign, a promotional piece will be placed in villas and condos where applicable.
Ensure that the property is vacant during showings so the potential buyer can be at ease while looking without feeling rushed or monitored. This will also allow them to freely ask questions of the real estate agent.
Keep pets outside or in a separate room to prevent them from becoming a distraction during the viewing.
Interested buyers complete and sign an “Offer to Purchase” outlining the offer price and terms, including the closing date. Carefully review the offer presented to you. You may wish to counter if the original offer is not acceptable to you.
Upon your acceptance of all terms and conditions of your offer, your attorney will prepare a Sales and Purchase Agreement to be signed by you and the buyer. The Sales and Purchase Agreement will articulate the terms of the offer. At this point, the buyer will pay a 10% deposit on the agreed purchase price.
On the closing date specified in the Sales and Purchase Agreement, ownership of your property is legally transferred to the buyer. You will be required to hand over any necessary documentation regarding the property. The purchase price balance is due upon the closing of the sale.
Your closing costs will include: Real Estate Sales Commission (approximately 6% on residential and commercial property and 10% on vacant land). Attorney fees (approximately 1-2% of purchase price)
