How I Bought Paradise In Belize For $40K: Escaping High:US Real Estate Prices | PassportHeavy.com

[@ColbyCBoone]

We bought our lot in Belize ( Secret Beach) based on your videos . Our lot is a project as it does need some backfill which we were quoted $14K USD for but the size of the lot + again as developers mentioned in the video it was a no brainer. I’m excited about so many folks from the diaspora taking advantage of this opportunity & what this potentially means for our children & the next generation. This video was a bit different than your normal cinema style videos but it was a lot more tactical & strategic in my opinion of sharing what’s been happening behind the scenes. Man listen I’m truly excited for what God is doing in your life brother & how he’s using you to help so many others unlock financial freedom & be a trailblazer for many. Honored to say I’m a Passport Heavy supporter & have been now for nearly 4 years ( time flies ). Keep going 🥂

Went to Belize the first time in 2023. Driving on the dusty bumpy road to secret beach I saw the vision. We got back home to ATL and bought 2 lots before the year ended. We got a ridiculous deal for two smaller lots already filled from a smaller investor. Lord am I happy. Can't wait to see what the place will be 10 yrs. from now.

As a Belizean-American, I'm so torn...on one hand, I am glad to see the investment in Belize. However, I also feel that this same investment is intensifying the plight of Belizeans being unable to afford their own country. More tourists owning land/property than the native people is not something I would like to see. Pricing the native people out of their own land or them not benefitting from this expansion/growth would be shameful. Hopefully, the government puts something in place to protect it's countrymen. If only they would take a page from places like Nigeria and Thailand.

[@jespaul2582]

yes I notice that for Ghana people who open doors for black Americans to come.

[@Unfluencer]

they will ruin your country. just look at costa rica. 20 years ago it was paradise. now i wouldnt even visit. and its more expensive than the states!

[@JourneywithMAMAZURI-hb8nr]

Your a very honest, kind human being. I go to Mexico a lot and I see the same thing. We have to give people a universal LIVING WAGE . Everyone loves a place where they can get a great deal, until they realize those their dealing with aren’t getting a deal at all, it’s a robbery. A place is only as good as the people living there.

[@luxurytravel759]

That’s a dilemma, that’s happening all over the world really. The thing is Thailand and Indonesia and these places have so many of their own people driving the economy they don’t quite need foreign ownership. They do it by lease, however that is also the reason why many people, certainly not many wealthy westerners invest there, mostly mid class Russians and such. If all Carribean countries did this it would also turn the investors away and perhaps the country will never benefit from its economic growth. Also mostly expats want to invest in seaside lands or resorts, not on main lands and cities. More investors they get there more economy will grow, more stores will open, shipping, importing and exporting will become more affordable and just over quality of life will improve immensely. Locals will benefit from this greatly. If they don’t make it investor friendly for foreign investors what’s going to happen is that it will stay as poor and even worse really big corporations and big giant hotels will buy up those lands for the fraction of the cost and it still won’t be accessible to regular people, so I think letting foreigners invest in it is better, at least they are paying a lot for those lots there, ok, those mangrove lots where there is nothing on it is cheap but most of the lands there are expensive on the island. More residents you have actually living there versus just visiting is going to help the island grow, more shops, better services, better hospitals, more business opportunities. If you only have big hotels and only temporary visitors they’ll just come to stay on resorts and never leave to go out and put money in local businesses.

[@elMARABIYOCHO1989]

This is something that happens everywhere. All these immigrants who call themselves "expats" to pretend they are better than other people are pricing out the locals. But they always have the nerve to look down on immigrants in their own countries when they are also moving to other countries so they can have lifestyles they could only dream of in their own countries.

[@Jetsetwithb]

I was there in 2018, stayed at Mahogany Bay, and looked at buying. Got back to the states, got distracted and forgot all about it. I'm glad this popped up!!!

[@PassportHeavy]

Wow, Mahogany Bay definitely changed a bit since then.

[@Jetsetwithb]

@@PassportHeavy I'm sure. I stayed in the 3 bedroom cottage overlooking the unfinished canal. Our group had a great time from sunset cruises and local food tours to visiting the ruins. Although the price has increased it's still a great investment and perfect timing for me as I am actively looking for an investment.

[@dougsmith7195]

My coworker bought a sizable lot at the north edge of Belize about 12 years ago. He just retired and sold the lot. They decided there were too many barriers to moving to Belize. The taxes were high to build and the taxes were high to import your belongings. They eventually bought a place near Playa DelCarmen.

[@jameskelly9243]

I don't believe your correct. When moving to Belize from say the states you get a very large exemption for personal belongings.

Hi! I’m excited to be here in your channel and I’m interested in learning more about investing and saving up for my retirement but am a little confused about the whole process. Any advice or tips to get me started up would be greatly appreciated.

[@SamuelIlari]

Retirement is now more difficult than it was in the past. I've been saving for a long time instead of investing, and right now I only have about $400K. considering all the inflation, i'm thinking of investing in stocks, i dont just have idea on market strategies.

[@wandemiles]

The increasing prices have impacted my plan to retire at 62, work part-time, and save for the future. I'm concerned about whether those who navigated the 2008 financial crisis had an easier time than I am currently experiencing. The combination of stock market volatility and a decrease in income is causing anxiety about whether I'll have sufficient funds for retirement.

[@MyContact-l9h]

This is precisely why I like having a portfolio coach guide my day-to-day market decisions: with their extensive knowledge of going long and short at the same time, using risk for its asymmetrical upside and laying it off as a hedge against the inevitable downward turns, their skillset makes it nearly impossible for them to underperform. I've been utilizing a portfolio coach for more than two years, and I've made over $800k

[@EvelynVillodas]

I understand the hype about Belize in watching all these videos. But there is something missing. I don’t get to see the people of Belize talking about these beautiful resorts or homes. For example we just see the tourist talking about buying land and future expensive lands at a fractional cost now. But can the locals afford to buy lots at this price? Is this just going to be another future Hawaii? Where the locals won’t be able to buy none of these lands because of pricing and then get pushed back into the mainland where the poverty is not shown in these videos. And then you’ll get the Oprah Winfrey, Bill Gates, Elon Musk, and the Mark Zuckerberg’s of the world buying most of the land, and not giving back to the community. I get it it’s beautiful. But why does that matter if it’s going to turn Belize into another tourist spot that all the prices go up and not even the people from Belize can enjoy it, making everything more expensive for them. So I guess this is going to be another Hawaii in five years? Because if it does, that means the people that are vacationing now won’t be able to afford vacationing in Belize five years from now with everything rising as expected. Just asking questions and sharing thoughts. Maybe I’m looking at it from the wrong angle. Please comment and give me your opinion.

[@RoRo-nf1bq]

I agree with your sentiments fully. 1/2 my family that lives there and has lived there all their lives, probably won't be able to afford to even visit the islands, let alone afford property there. The city is a whole different ball game. Like I said in my comment, I wish the government in Belize followed the lead of Nigeria, Thailand and the Philippines ( to name a few)...you can't own if your not a countryman!

[@ignacioflores3691]

Absolutely correct! Been to Belize many times and seen all these hype videos of their team and people that are considering buying but no true locals. That’s because there’s absolutely no way the locals can purchase. Even though you see these people, regardless where in Belize it’s full of snowbirds. Canadians everywhere. I’m looking back into Mexico where huge projects are happening, the brand new Tren Maya which is bringing in 6-7 million tourists per year is set to explode the real estate market in its Route that covers five Mexican States. Beachfront virgin beach, white sand where lots cost right now $300,000. They even offering in house financing up to 15 years @2.99% with just 30% down. All done with a prestigious top law firm to guarantee our safety to know it’s legit. Also, average size lot measures 65 ft of beach frontage by 197 ft deep. Giving you a lot of you to build a beach house plus 3-5 beach cabins if you want as AirBnb’s. Best of luck to all finding your own piece of Paradise.

[@EvelynVillodas]

Thank You all for sharing your thoughts. I really worry and wonder about Belize’s future for the people of Belize. Thanks again!

[@joybeybeeluv4234]

It’s not the foreigners that create the prices …it’s the developers creating prices that maximize their profits. It’s similar to gentrification that happens in the US…..

[@Pinkorchid72]

This is what happened in places like Vancouver, Canada, and all over California…so much foreign real estate investment which they used to launder their monies…then proves sky rocker and the average American family can’t buy a home now….😢

[@tonymarin6156]

@PassportHeavy, I heard you mentioned in the video about minimum wages...you should do your research on what the minimum wage is in Belize. That $14k US you are paying to fill up your lot is what some belizeans makes as a yearly salary if they are lucky enough....minimum wage is $15-$16 US a day (8hours) work day...so when your at your high class resort in Belize enjoying the services and culture, just know that the locals providing you with that service is getting the smallest percentage of what you paid for the service.

[@wesleyv713]

Actually economically if a country with mostly impoverished citizens gets an influx of higher wealth people that expands their opportunities. Without anyone going to those resorts there’s no employees there. Without anyone developing land there’s no jobs for the developers. Everything is a give and take. Where one person is hurt by a situation there may be several others benefitting from it.

I'm American and first went to Belize in 2007 with the intention of investing, right as a lot of the development was kicking off. It's a beautiful country for sure, but at the same time it was heart breaking seeing the poverty and corruption of the gov, and how so much of the landscape was destroyed to make way for these large developments. Ultimately decided against making any purchases and instead have been working with different agencies and orgs that help victims of human trafficking and poverty. Sorry to be a downer, but it's hard seeing all this development going on where the only benefactors are my countrymen.

That can be said about most places. Florida is becoming way to expensive for Floridians as more wealthier individuals migrated from NY and other countries. The State has relaxed laws and you can see the favoring of developers pushing those away from the coastline in favor of luxury developments, there is extreme poverty and homelessness not shown on the post cards. The same is true of California, Hawaii, etc. it’s noble to have a cause to want to place your energy but investments are investments for a reason. Doing charity while noble isn’t comparable to those seeking to invest. I volunteer and also invest. I volunteer to help others, give back to my community, do some good in the world and hope to make a change. I invest to create a better quality life and future for me and my family.

I don’t know what that means, probably has some humour or perhaps it’s cultural thing that I don’t grasp, but as a first time visitor on the island just few weeks ago, made me want to come and visit more often, perhaps invest in the future as well, but definitely coming back for vacations and it’s mostly because of local people. Amazing, warm and kind souls. I have been on so many Caribbean islands and obviously all Caribbean islands are beautiful and some are well developed so it makes it more attractive, while Belize lacks that yet, its people and their welcoming spirit makes up for it and actually it’s the feeling, experiences and emotions that connect people with places not just nice buildings and high end shopping stores. 🙏🇧🇿

I love your videos, and I love the way you portray our black community. Needless to say, you got me thinking about Belize

[@valentinav.9412]

Greengos leaving America... is huge this days. Gentrificacion Madre Santa. God protect the local people .. hope they don't have to move out of their place in the future, and hope they can get to afford to buy their property in their land too. Please be kind with locals, with their culture

[@gavnicholson1980]

Nice videos I love fishing but it was appalling killing such a small and beautiful fish, which you have no intention to eat Understand it was your first but try not to do it again man Good luck in Belize 😎❤️💙

Your thumbnail for this video is great. You 2 look so happy. I am happy for you. I wish you all the best and God's blessings.

Those beachfront homes skyrocketed to $500K in just 18 months?! Wow!

[@faustjoe]

Those homes have been expensive since I've looked a year ago. Belize is on the come up...

[@cezarjipa72]

You realize this is just BS, right ?

[@gmoney692]

before that even, these early guys making videos that dont represent it now. Been on this for the last 3 years with 150k budget and havent found a spot yet

My husband and I are on the verge of retirement, we live and have invested in Nova Scotia We are going to check out Belize this summer,Passport Heavy should check out Nova Scotia, we are definitely on the "Glow Up"

[@secretbeachhomes]

Love to see Secret Beach growing so quickly 😍

[@luxurytravel759]

Your sincerity is what made me subscribe on your channel and also seriously considering investing in Belize, so what do those people mean when they say “your folks” don’t buy stuff? I’m white, and I am listening to you and taking your advice over many hundreds of KZbinrs in this niche on this platform. Who knows if you invested in Mahogany bay perhaps we’ll be neighbours in the future 🙌

Around $250,000 was made when I sold my flat in Rochester. That's why I was upset when my standard savings account yielded only $171 in interest. It was suggested to me to buy stocks after I conducted some study. Which stocks would be a good place to start?

[@antoniaribeiro8073]

Although the stock market is exciting and can yield a healthy return on investment, professional advice is necessary for efficient portfolio management to prevent market burnout due to its extreme volatility.

[@MarcyLoccy]

I anticipated receiving $2,500 in interest on my initial $50,000 when I created a high-yield savings account online with 5.12863% interest compounded everyday. Rather, I was only given $420. I asked, and was informed that the website did not make it obvious that the interest is computed daily. With the help of an expert, my partner suggested that I switch to stocks, and in just six months, I experienced almost 80% capital increase (discounting dividends). Extremely advisable!

[@NorthCarolinaForward]

How do I meet this advisor, please? I need assistance investing my divorce settlement because it's now sitting in the bank earning little interest.

[@MarcyLoccy]

"Rebecca Nassar Dunne" is the licensed fiduciary I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment.

[@dengdelun3109]

I look forward to relo to a place where my skin tone truly blends and I experience life without so many questions and acceptance. My life abroad has always been more comfortable than my life in the states. Belize is lovely.

[@Feliz_BroDad]

Tropical storm risks are insane so unless you can fund a rebuild every 5 years, then I recommend thinking twice and doing your own due diligence with inspectors from the states… Insurance companies will not touch your property or investments. Why did you not talk about the liabilities ? No such thing as a Utopia Investment…

[@nusuralove4407]

Facts 💯

[@youpremium4466]

Yeah my doubt is rising sea levels as well. I did my internship in Belize in 2005, love it.

[@AdventuresNlipstick]

We are in SF Bay, just returned from Placencia last week and absolutely loved it! Came home to research how to buy there, came upon this video and hubby said "reach out to Jubril and make it happen!" How many days do you suggest we fly down to explore land/homes and tips in San Pedro, Secret beach, Mahogany Bay and Placencia?

[@MaxamHotels]

Let’s go team !!

So beautiful to see you back! Lovely 🔥🗽🏙💘

[@thatcitydoll7090]

I'm on the verge to invest. My question after watching this video is; What happens when the market becomes saturated + area becomes developed ? Like Tulum etc ? I witnessed Tulum go from a sacred haven to a widely popular destination and it never became the same. What does one do with the investment then ?

[@AJ_GH]

The more developed it is, the higher the value. If you don’t like being in a congested area when that happens, then sell.

[@queenofsheba7145]

@thatcitydoll- Your investment will go up in valuation. You can build on the land and rent it out, plus you will own the land, which is an amazing investment. And if you do sell, you will get alot more.

[@ShawnaSharee]

The difference is it is an island, so only but so much land. Tulum, (I live about an hour away) has massive jungle and untouched land that makes for much more area to be developed. An island has a cap. 😊

[@nikkolyn1122]

[@Crypto_Jefe]

Been a sub with you for years my dude and I appreciate you. I know you have your target market, which is clearly luxury travel, but many traveling youtubers spend like 0.00 and make Millions in views. So I guess you're lucky to have revenues from other businesses, but I honestly think you you can make a lot more on YT, IF you make more natural travel videos. Like no paid promos or expensive resorts, show the actual locals, the affordable cost of living, etc. Your vids are more like dreams or vacation, not realistic daily living. Most Americans or others who want to travel is to "escape" the Matrix so to speak and to find a more affordable and fun lifestyle, digital nomad lifestyles, backpackers, etc. I'm sure you know this and wouldnt change your channel much, simply would be more related to more people. This is free advice by the way ha ha. I have not been to Belize yet, currently visiting Brazil, and will make it there soon. Cheers!!

Question for the community? What countries or investments are on your radar right now and what have been your biggest concerns with investing overseas?

🇸🇻🇸🇻🇸🇻🇸🇻🇸🇻📈📈📈📈📈......the concerns are usually political stability.....having stability and safety helps minimize investment risk. 😎

[@puchipood5330]

To be honest, I would love to invest internationally. It's not knowing the way it's done, who to go to, how to build or transport materials, pay taxes, the country's stability and crime is what has slowed me down.

[@jjcastleberry3662]

Oh yes, Belize. I grew up there from the 1960s to the 1970s. Our old house on 13 Cork Street has been transformed into a hotel?! That's Funny. My parents' ashes were spread around San Pedro, Ambergris Caye. My brother is renting out their old house to expats. Pretty much all my Belizean childhood friends are living in the USA. Isn't that crazy? In 1966, Dad and I flew to San Pedro and stayed in the only hotel, the Holiday Hotel, owned by John Grief, a friend of my Dad. The paved streets you see everywhere were only sand in 1966.

Best time to buy is write after a hurricane

[@tamikathomas-barnes3452]

Good stuff and I hope that all of the expats help their fellow Belizian American communities ❤

Property values in Atlanta are skyrocketing because of out of state persons moving to ATL with inflated earnings from the North.... Well now the same is happening to Belize
