What is a typical expat home or apartment like in Warwick?

"A typical expat home or apartment in Warwick, is often a blend of traditional Bermudian architecture and modern amenities. These homes are usually painted in bright, tropical colors, with white limestone roofs to collect rainwater, a crucial source of freshwater on the island. The interiors are spacious and airy, with high ceilings and large windows to let in the natural light and offer stunning views of the surrounding landscapes. Many homes have open-plan living areas, modern kitchens equipped with high-end appliances, and comfortable bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms. Some properties may also feature a home office, a necessity for many expats working remotely. Outdoor living is a significant part of life in Bermuda, so many homes have large patios or verandas, often with a barbecue area for entertaining. A good number of expat homes in Warwick also come with a private pool and a lush garden filled with local flora. Given the island's warm climate, these outdoor spaces are used year-round. Despite being in a residential area, these homes are usually just a short distance away from the beach, local shops, restaurants, and other amenities. In terms of furnishings, some homes come fully furnished, while others are unfurnished, giving expats the freedom to bring or buy their own furniture. The style of decor can vary widely, from classic and elegant to contemporary and minimalist. Security is typically robust, with many homes equipped with alarm systems and some located within gated communities. Lastly, due to the high cost of living and real estate prices in Bermuda, expat homes in Warwick are often quite expensive, reflecting the island's status as a luxury destination," said one expat who made the move to Warwick.

Should I buy or rent a home in Warwick?

If you have not spent a lot of time in Warwick, you should rent before even thinking about buying. We asked expats there about the buy vs. rent decision:

"The decision to buy or rent a home in Warwick, depends on your personal circumstances, financial situation, and long-term plans. If you plan to stay in the area for an extended period and have the financial means, buying a home could be a good investment, as it allows you to build equity and potentially benefit from the appreciation of property values. Additionally, owning a home provides stability and the freedom to make changes to the property as you see fit. On the other hand, if you are unsure about your long-term plans or prefer flexibility, renting may be a better option. Renting a home in Warwick, Bermuda, allows you to avoid the upfront costs and long-term commitment associated with buying a property. It also provides the opportunity to explore different neighborhoods and housing options before making a more permanent decision. Furthermore, renting can be more cost-effective in the short term, as you won't be responsible for property taxes, maintenance, and other expenses associated with homeownership. Ultimately, the choice between buying and renting a home in Warwick, Bermuda, should be based on your individual needs, preferences, and financial situation. It's essential to carefully weigh the pros and cons of each option and consider consulting with a real estate professional to help guide your decision," explained one person living in Warwick, Bermuda.
