Vernica's Journal

The Turks and Caicos is a paradise, that is why the purchase of real estate in the Turks and Caicos Islands, and Providenciales in particular is attracting world-wide attention. Three of the things that makes us a paradise for real estate purchasers is because of the islands’ tax haven status, the fact that there are no restrictions on the purchase and ownership of property by foreign investors, and of course the sheer natural beauty of the islands.

Scotia Bank hosted a brokers and agents session on yesterday, at the Opus conference room to discuss some of the services that Scotia offers in terms of real estate to clients. The session was informative as they were able to confirm a number of important information such as their current interest rates on loans and mortgages, investment opportunities for private banking clients, insurance policies details and benefits, merchant services and small business plan writer information for corporate clients and the likes. As agents we also had the opportunity to discuss some of the hiccups that we have found when dealing with the banks, especially in the line of getting clients pre-qualified for a mortgage or loan, which is something that National Colony Realty has been strongly campaigning on for the past few months. Thankfully, the bank now has a liaison person who can work with agents to get through this process more smoothly and in a timely manner. Overall, I believe that it was a succes...
