With its award winning hotels, Nevis has been one of the hottest and most sought after Caribbean destination for celebrities and the super wealthy.
Although not yet as sought after as neighboring Anguilla, the island has lots of charm and character that keeps tourists coming back year after year.
Recently the islands real estate market has been heating up, with lots of new beachside developments and multi-million villas currently on the market. I had the opportunity to revisit Nevis recently and although most of my friends on island kept wanting to show me the latest beachside development or multi-million dollar villa, I found myself drawn mostly to the dilapidated buildings in and around Charlestown, Nevis’ capital city (town).
Here are a couple shots I took on my mobile phone (forgot my camera in London; excuse the poor picture quality). Although most of these houses are in bad condition, to me they represent the best value for money on island because:

1. they’re mostly unoccupied and have been for years, so once legal title (ownership) is ascertained, it should be relatively easy to strike a good deal, since the current owners are doing nothing with the properties
2. most of these houses have been built with stones and the structures are incredibly sound, having withstood the test of time, and many hurricanes.
3. a lot of these dilapidated properties are beachfront, with similar size plots with no building on them selling well in excess of US$1 million

If you’re interested in any of these properties or Nevis real estate in general, let me know and I’ll do my best to make it happen
