How do I find a place to live in Bahamas?
We asked expats how they chose their neighborhood and found a place to live. They answered...
"We use a real estate agent. We choose the western side of the island, no traffic! But of course it depends where your office is located," said another expat in Nassau, Bahamas.
"The best way to find a place to live in the Bahamas is to use an online real estate listing site such as Propertyskipper or Bahamas Realty. You can peruse both of these websites to find places that match your budget, desired location and size. Additionally, it is possible to come to the Bahamas and look at locations in person. There are frequently notice boards in grocery stores and other places around the islands that advertise available properties. It is also advisable to seek out any information regarding rentals on social media platforms such as Facebook, where locals post details of their homes and apartments that they would like to rent out," wrote a member who made the move to Bahamas.
