Featured Property: British Virgin Islands

The British Virgin Islands (BVI), also called the Virgin Islands is a British overseas territory, located in the Caribbean to the east of Puerto Rico. The islands make up part of the Virgin Islands archipelago, the remaining islands constituting the U.S. Virgin Islands.
Known for years as a "sailor's paradise”, BVIs are the world’s charter-boat capital.
The British Virgin Islands consist of the main islands of Tortola, Virgin Gorda, Anegada and Jost Van Dyke, along with over fifty other smaller islands and cays. Approximately fifteen of the islands are inhabited. The capital, Road Town, is situated on Tortola, the largest island which is approximately 20 km (12 mi) long and 5 km (3 mi) wide.
The islands are easing restrictions for foreign property investors and introducing incentives in a bid to attract more luxury buyers.
The British Virgin Islands enjoys one of the more prosperous economies of the Caribbean region, with a per capita GDP of around $38,500. Since 1959, the official currency of the British Virgin Islands has been the US dollar, also used by the United States Virgin Islands.
The Islands enjoy a tropical climate, moderated by trade winds. Temperatures vary little throughout the year. In the capital, Road Town, typical daily temperature ranges are around 24 °C (75 °F) to 32 °C (90 °F) in the summer and 21 °C (70 °F) to 29 °C (84 °F) in the winter.
As a tax haven with a stable economy, positive Government attitude, ideal climate, easy access, idyllic locations and true virgin territories, the British Virgin Islands is one of our current hot tips for investment and luxury development.
