Do you dream of owning your own home in Cura\u00e7ao? Sami Verde<\/strong> offers the perfect opportunity to invest in a luxury villa, suitable for both own use and rental. Below you can read step by step how the purchase process works.<\/p>\n

Buying at Sami Verde<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Anyone, regardless of nationality, can buy a home in Cura\u00e7ao without restrictions. You do not need any special permits or permission to become a property owner.<\/p>\n

A visit to Cura\u00e7ao is not necessary to arrange the purchase.<\/strong> The entire process can be handled digitally, including signing the purchase agreement and the notarial process.<\/p>\n

You can use your property at Sami Verde as:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • \n

    Own home<\/strong> (permanent or holiday home).<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    Long-term rental<\/strong> to local tenants.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    Tourist rental<\/strong> via Airbnb or Booking.com, for example.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    \n

    Mortgage and financing<\/strong><\/h3>\n

    Do you want to (partially) finance your home? Then you can contact both Dutch and Cura\u00e7ao mortgage lenders and financial intermediaries. Keep in mind that banks usually have a own contribution of around 40 - 50%<\/strong> questions.<\/p>\n

    \n

    Property<\/strong><\/h3>\n

    At Sami Verde, you take full ownership of your property:<\/p>\n

    There is no annual ground rent<\/strong>, which means full ownership with no extra charges - a valuable asset for the long term.<\/p>\n

    \n

    The buying process in 6 steps<\/strong><\/h3>\n
      \n
    1. \n

      Purchase agreement<\/strong> - After you have chosen your property, the purchase agreement will be drawn up and signed. Once signed, it will be forwarded to our project notary Chatlein.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    2. \n

      Customer due diligence (KYC)<\/strong> - In accordance with local legislation, together with a specialised firm, we carry out the mandatory Know Your Customer<\/strong>-investigation.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    3. \n

      Down payment<\/strong> - You pay a small part of the purchase price as a down payment.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    4. \n

      Notarial transport<\/strong> - The notary registers the right of ownership or flat right in the land register. From then on, you are officially the owner.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    5. \n

      Construction deadlines & progress<\/strong> - During construction, you pay the agreed construction instalments. You will receive regular construction updates and progress reports.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    6. \n

      Final delivery & key transfer<\/strong> - Once construction is completed and the last instalment is paid, the final delivery will take place and you will receive the keys. The property is then fully your property and ready for use or rental.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      \n

      Additional costs<\/strong><\/h3>\n

      In addition to the purchase price, there are additional costs (\u201cbuyer's costs\u201d) that you need to take into account:<\/p>\n

        \n
      • \n

        Transfer tax:<\/strong> 4% over the purchase price (30% of the total purchase price).<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      • \n

        Sales tax:<\/strong> 6% over the contract price (70% of the total purchase price).<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      • \n

        Notary fees:<\/strong> On average 1 - 2% of the purchase price.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      • \n

        Financing costs:<\/strong> Any fees for valuation, mortgage advice or bank charges.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        On average, buyer's costs amount to approximately 6% of the total purchase price<\/strong> (excluding financing costs).<\/p>\n

        Example:<\/strong>
        You decide to buy a flat for USD 430,000<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

          \n
        • \n

          Purchase price: USD<\/strong>\u00a0129.000,-<\/strong> (30%), with USD<\/strong>\u00a05.160,-<\/strong> transfer tax (4%).<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

        • \n

          Aanneemsom: USD<\/strong>\u00a0301,000-<\/strong> (70%), with USD<\/strong>\u00a018.060,-<\/strong> sales tax (6%).<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

        • \n

          Notary fees: USD<\/strong>\u00a04.300,-<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          Total purchase cost: USD 457,520<\/strong><\/p>\n

          \n

          Managing your property<\/strong><\/h3>\n

          If you do not live permanently in Cura\u00e7ao, it is strongly recommended to have a local administrator<\/strong> in. This will ensure that your property is well maintained and rentals run smoothly.<\/p>\n

          What does an administrator do?<\/strong><\/p>\n

            \n
          • \n

            Technical maintenance<\/strong> - Inspections, repairs, cleaning and garden maintenance (sometimes part of VvE).<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

          • \n

            Rental management<\/strong> - Bookings, check-in and check-out, cleaning and key management.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

          • \n

            Administration<\/strong> - Collecting rent and paying local charges.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

          • \n

            Inspection<\/strong> - Regular inspection of the property, including when it is vacant for a longer period.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

            At Sami Verde, we consider whether to take care of the management ourselves in due course or work together with a reliable partner. There are plenty of professional management companies on Cura\u00e7ao that specialise in holiday homes and flats.<\/p>\n
