Leave your watch behind because you won't need it. And toss away your shoes while you're at it–a bathing suit is the only wardrobe requirement, and even that's only a suggestion. Spend your afternoon chasing a fish or two or nursing an ice-cold beer, and call that a good day's work…
There's a little country in the Caribbean…a new country, in fact, having just gained its independence in 1981. Only about 300,000 people live here…in the entire country!
It's a place where palm trees sway in rhythm with the gentle waves of clear warm waters caressing soft white sands.
Worries are few. The cost of living is low…less than half what you'd spend in the rest of the Caribbean or the U.S. Property prices, too, are extraordinarily low. In parts of this paradise…virtually unknown to foreigners…you can buy a beach home for as little as $35,000. Even on its most popular ‘upscale' island, where bargains are hard to come by, a brand-new condo can be had for little more than $100,000.
Over the years, the world has started to take notice of little Belize. Celebrities like Leonardo DiCaprio, movie director Francis Ford Coppola, and singer-songwriter Jerry Jeff Walker have quietly purchased homes there. Many more…like Tiger Woods, Harrison Ford, Nicolas Cage, and Robert DeNiro…regularly vacation on its private islands and exclusive resort hotels.
We sent veteran writer (and bulldog bargain real estate hunter) Don Ediger to Belize to sniff out some of the places in the country where you can still live the Caribbean dream without spending a fortune…where you can have a champagne lifestyle on a Belikin budget. (Belikin is Belize's mighty tasty beer…a cold one will set you back just a buck or two, depending on the hoity-toity-ness, or lack thereof, of the establishment.)
Belize: Live the Caribbean Dream…for Less is the best resource available to help you get to know the Caribbean paradise that is Belize. From finding a property…to obtaining residency. You'll learn how to invest, travel, live, retire, and start a new business in Belize. With this report as your guide, you'll save time, money, and hours of frustration...
