Why Celebrities Want Homes in the Bahamas
The Bahamas has one of the largest registers of celebrities who reside permanently or have legal residential status in a country not of their native birth, hometown or place of origin. This is primarily due to the favourable financial sector that is tax free (from income, capital gains, sales tax, among others) and is one of the top three worldwide centres in offshore banking. Also, there is a high quality tourism product, ranking first in the Caribbean and Atlantic region among island destinations. Another is a favourable immigration policy toward wealthy nationals. Those who want permanent residential status it can be arranged through an investment. Proximity to the United States and Canada also play a vital role in this social phenomenon.
