By the numbers
24 Years. One Market. Total Focus.
Glenn Ferguson's practice is concentrated entirely on Nassau and the Bahamas. That depth of focus produces results that generalist agents cannot replicate.
About Glenn Ferguson
Nassau's Real Estate and Residency Specialist
Glenn Ferguson entered the Nassau real estate market over 24 years ago and has operated continuously in it since — through market cycles, legislative changes, and the transformation of Cable Beach from a mid-tier resort corridor into the Bahamas' most competitive luxury address. That continuity of presence is not incidental. It is the foundation of everything he provides to buyers.
His practice is structured around a single premise: that international buyers purchasing high-value Bahamas property deserve a single accountable professional who manages the full process. That means current listings, offer strategy, attorney coordination, government VAT filing, post-close registration, and concurrent Economic Permanent Residency application — handled by one person, not four. Glenn holds Licensed Bahamas Real Estate Agent, issued and regulated by the Bahamas Real Estate Association, and his Residency Consultant designation enables him to manage EPR applications without referring clients to a separate practice.
Beyond real estate, Glenn holds a WPIC certification from the Wedding Planners Institute of Canada and a government-issued Marriage Officer licence — making him one of the few professionals in the Bahamas who can plan a wedding, officiate the ceremony, arrange a property purchase, and file a residency application for the same client family. He operates Island Nuptial as his wedding brand, with over 200 ceremonies performed across Nassau and the Out Islands.
He is based in Nassau, New Providence, and available directly by phone, WhatsApp, and email. All enquiries are handled personally — not by an assistant or call centre.
"The buyers who succeed in the Nassau market are the ones who treat it as a specialist market — because it is. Bahamas real estate law is not like Florida or the UK. The EPR system changes. The MLS is not Zillow. Working with an agent who has spent 24 years in this specific market is not a luxury. For a $2M-plus transaction, it is the decision that protects everything else."Glenn Ferguson — Licensed Bahamas Real Estate Agent, Nassau, New Providence, Bahamas

Why Buy Property in Nassau Now
The data behind the Bahamas real estate market in 2026 supports foreign buyer confidence at every level of the market.
The Bahamas recorded 12.5 million visitors in the 12 months to January 2026 (Ministry of Tourism, January 28, 2026) — sustaining the short-term rental demand that underpins Cable Beach investment property yields. Nassau short-term rental average daily rates reached $510.80 as of August 2025 (AirDNA, Central Bank of the Bahamas), making the gross rental math on Aqualina and similar properties compelling for buyers who intend to let when not in residence.
GDP growth came in at 2.8% (IMF, February 5, 2026), reflecting a Bahamian economy that continues to expand on the back of tourism and financial services. Reported homicides fell 31% to 83 in 2025 (Royal Bahamas Police Force, January 27, 2026) — a safety signal that matters to buyers relocating with families.
The Bahamas' tax structure remains structurally superior to its Caribbean competitors: no capital gains tax, no inheritance tax, no income tax on rental proceeds from Bahamian property, and no wealth tax of any kind. The only material government cost to buyers is the flat 10% conveyance VAT applied to the purchase price. Against comparable markets in Cayman, Turks and Caicos, or BVI, the Bahamas acquisition and holding cost profile is consistently more favourable for high-value assets.
Glenn Ferguson has navigated buyers through every market phase over 24 years. The current environment — rising visitor numbers, falling crime, stable growth, and a strengthening luxury supply — is among the most straightforward he has seen for confident foreign buyer entry.
Bahamas property tax (RPT) — 2025 rates
Non-owner-occupied: 1% on first $500,000 of assessed value, 2% above $500,000, capped at $150,000/yr maximum. Per Real Property Tax Amendment Act No. 43 of 2025.
