It is also very important to know what rules, regulations and laws exist that governs Barbados Real Estate Sales to people like you (especially if you are not a citizen of Barbados). You should check both with your home country and with your Barbados Real Estate Sales agent so you would know if there's a need to provide any vital documents. Understand that some countries may permit sales of their land to foreigners but may impose certain restrictions. Fortunately for Barbados Real Estate, there are no existing restrictions forbidding foreign nationals from purchasing Barbados Real Estate, but you do have to get permission first for your Barbados Real Estatepurchase from the Central Bank of Barbados. Though this is just a formal way of dealing with such business, it is best if you follow this rule for your protection as well.
Finding a reliable agent is also a best way to hold business in Barbados real estate. Ask your Barbados Real Estate Sales agent if you need to make a deposit of any kind once you have secured permission from the Central Bank of Barbados. Ask too if you will get your deposit back should the sale fall through. There will probably be taxes to pay too, such as the stamp duty of 1% and the property transfer tax equal to 10% from the total purchase price.

You will then need to register the purchase price amount with the Central Bank of Barbados. Do not forget to get the services of a good lawyer, especially one who is well-versed in laws governing Barbados Property Sales & Rentals. You can expect to pay as much as 2% of the property purchase price for the legal fees of your Barbados Real Estate Sales lawyer. Some people may also opt to buy their Barbados Real Estate via a company which was incorporated outside Barbados territory (also called an offshore company).
