If you are searching for luxury real estate in the Bahamas, there are many exciting options available to you. Throughout Nassau, Paradise Island, or Eastern Road, numerous homes are currently listed for investors looking for a Bahamas investment property as well as people looking to relocate. But if you are searching for a great property that offers unexpected benefits, Better Homes and Gardens MCR Bahamas recommends a gated community.
With additional security as well as features within the community itself, buying a gated property could be the best investment you make in the Bahamas this year.
Safety and Security
Perhaps the most important feature of a gated community is the security and peace of mind that it offers. Although the Bahamas are a relatively safe group of islands - particularly in proximity to the resorts and tourist areas - there remain high instances of theft and property crime. Whether you are moving to the Bahamas or purchasing a new investment property, you want to protect your valuable investments at all times.
A gated community limits access to property owners and invited guests. Without easy access to your home and property, criminals are more easily deterred. In fact, statistics released by the Crime and Justice Research Alliance showed that a gated community can reduce burglaries by up to 33%. When it comes to property protection, a gated community delivers a safe and effective solution.
Community Benefits
Although safety is paramount and most often the leading reason for buying property in gated communities, there are other benefits as well. Many gated communities in the Bahamas feature a centrally located clubhouse, providing community members with a place to gather for parties and other events.
Some gated communities are situated on a golf course as well - with perks available to property owners. If you enjoy your daily tee time with friends, then investing in properties on a golf course could be a dream scenario.
Each of these features creates a community atmosphere that might be hard to replicate outside of the gates. When you know your neighbors and understand who comes and goes each day, it fosters an atmosphere where people look out for each other, which provides an additional layer of protection for your property.
