What do I need to know when buying property in Trinidad & Tobago?

Answer this Question

When we asked expats what advice they would give a foreigner before buying a property in Trinidad & Tobago, they said...

"1. It is important to research the area you are interested in buying property in, as well as the local laws and regulations that may affect your purchase. 2. It is also important to obtain a survey of the property to ensure that it is in good condition and that there are no hidden issues that could affect your purchase. 3. It is also important to obtain a title search to ensure that the property is free of any liens or encumbrances. 4. It is also important to obtain a valuation of the property to ensure that you are paying a fair price. 5. It is also important to obtain legal advice from a qualified lawyer to ensure that all documents are in order and that your rights are protected. 6. It is also important to be aware of any taxes or fees that may be applicable to the purchase of the property. 7. Finally, it is important to be aware of any restrictions or covenants that may be attached to the property, such as restrictions on the use of the property or restrictions on the sale of the property," commented one expat who made the move to Trinidad & Tobago.
