How expats can buy property in Bahrain?

Living in Bahrain puts you at the center of the GCC, t (http://eraprojects.net)he regions economical and transportation hub. If anyone is looking for residence permit option in
Bahrain for the long term, buying property in Bahrain is now an option for expats.

Who can get residence permit in Bahrain?

1) Expats who has property purchase of 50K BD or more in Bahrain

2) Retired foreigner – worked for 15 years or more in Bahrain

3) Foreign investor – invests 100K BHD or more in a Bahraini company

Property requirements:

As an expat, you must buy property valued at 50,000 BD or more.  Generally, properties built on reclaimed land or in touristic areas.  Rule of thumb is that if you are buying
apartments (https://erabahrain.net/); go for buildings of 10 stories or more as there are specific requirements for property for this type of visa.

You want to go for properties which have a “Title deed’ or are “Title deed ready” i.e. the title deed for your property has been issued after being split from the developer’s
mother title deed.

BENEFITS:

Foreign property owners in Bahrain have the right to proclaim aself-sponsorship residence permitby law. However, in order to issue a residence permit, the value of
the purchased property must be over BHD 50,000.

Buy a property in Bahrain and your capital will keep on accruing more value by time. Property prices are on the rise in many areas, especially freehold areas where
demand is powerful.

The earlier you snatch a real estate opportunity, the better return on investment you will secure

High rental income

Bahrain’s rental market provides stable, steady income. Gross rental yield is among the highest in the GCC and a major reason for interest in our freehold market (REMI
Global 2017), along with zero taxation on rent and property.

Bahrain is the only country in the Gulf where developers can benefit from 100% foreign ownership,making it one of the best places to invest in real estate in the
region for investors from outside the GCC

Easy monetization
 
Due to high population density, it’s easy for property owners to find buyers and sell their properties to liquefy their held assets.

Visa Advantages of Buying Property in Bahrain

In addition to the investment and accommodation benefits of owning a property in Bahrain, it could also be a benefit for your right to visit and stay.

This not only lasts for five years but can also be extended on request. While the visa remains valid, you will be free to come and go at your pleasure. Your spouse and
children fewer than 18 are also covered by the visa as long as they only live in Bahrain and don’t seek employment there.

If you sell the property at any time, the Self Sponsorship Residence Permit will be cancelled, regardless of the validity period remaining.

If you have enough savings or loans available, buying a property at home to rent to others can be a good solution. You then know you have a roof over your head when you
return.

Where Can You Own?

You can purchase property in approved freehold areas of Bahrain listed below.

Juffair
Amwaj Islands
Durrat Al Bahrain
Seef
Bahrain Bay
Abraj Al Lulu
Riffa
Reef Island
Saar
Diyar Al Muharraq
