“Ninety percent of all millionaires become so through owning real estate. More money has been made in real estate than in all industrial investments combined. The wise young [person] or wage earner of today invests [their] money in real estate.” – Andrew Carnegie

Happy 43rd Independence Anniversary to my fellow Saint Lucians and well-wishers at home and abroad. May Yahweh continue to bless our island nation and grant prosperity to all its peoples.

The construction industry continues to show positive signs with new construction going up everywhere. A substantial inventory of Commercial Buildings offering retail and office spaces are currently coming on the market. Commencement of a major commercial development is slated for the 2nd quarter of 2022 by a very active Developer in the South of the island.

The airport construction is continuing and work is very likely to recommence on the St. Jude’s Hospital, the roads are being repaired and the Vieux Fort water improvement project is well on its way. While there has been continuous opening up of new land developments, new private residential properties are lagging behind. However, it is very likely that new residential construction will start in earnest in the 2nd and third quarter of 2022.

This is the time to get together with your real estate agent to find out what deals are currently available. With citizens refusing to be locked in by COVID 19 and its Variants, and having decided to bring normalcy to their lives, property prices are likely to be adjusted upward. More people are taking to the skies and are vacationing, and going after business development and expansion. As a result, more individuals will be making investment decisions to acquire real estate. The returning residents market will definitely bounce back as Developers open up new lands.

We must not forget that prices for residential homes went up 32.6 during 2021 in the USA while COVID 19 was considered a much more serious threat than today. Prices are going to go up. The pressure on families to find more spacious homes due to new working conditions of working from home, and remotely put further pressure on existing housing stock and created a desire in some cases for second homes overseas. It could be considered that people everywhere are adapting to the changes and as a result, the real estate industry will continue to be very active in the short and medium-term.
