Nassau and Paradise Island Condo Specialist
EPR Residency Consultant - 24+ Years Nassau
WPIC-Certified Wedding Planner - Licensed Marriage Officer - 200+ Ceremonies
Glenn's condo coverage spans every Nassau and Paradise Island development currently listed on the Bahamas MLS: One Ocean Paradise Island, Reef Atlantis, Aqualina Cable Beach, One Cable Beach, Palm Cay One Marina, Four Seasons Residences (pre-sale 2027), Baha Mar Residences, and Goldwynn. His specific value for condo buyers is the HOA documentation review - confirming the maintenance fee structure, reserve fund health, short-term rental policy, and rental programme revenue split - before any offer is made.
For buyers comparing Nassau condos against Nassau homes and gated estates, Glenn covers both from a single contact. Seller pays commission - all condo buyer services cost nothing extra. For Bahamas weddings, Glenn is also a WPIC-Certified Wedding Planner and Licensed Bahamas Marriage Officer with 200+ ceremonies through Island Nuptial.
"Every condo buyer conversation starts the same way. I ask three things: are you buying to use, to rent, or for EPR residency? The answer determines which development is right, which HOA documents I pull first, and whether the budget needs to be above $1M. Get those three answers in before the shortlist. The buyers who skip this step end up looking at the right price range on the wrong island in the wrong building for their goal."Glenn Ferguson - Licensed Bahamas Real Estate Agent (BREA), Nassau and Paradise Island Condo Specialist, Nassau, New Providence, Bahamas
What Glenn does for condo buyers
Eight Services That Come With Every Bahamas Condo Purchase
Seller pays commission in all Bahamas transactions. Every service below is included at no additional cost to the condo buyer.
Current MLS listings matched to budget and objective
Glenn sends live Bahamas MLS listings across all Nassau, Paradise Island, and Cable Beach condo developments at the confirmed budget - not asking prices from months ago. The shortlist is prepared around the objective: personal use, rental income, EPR residency, or resale appreciation.
Personalised closing cost breakdown before any offer
Glenn calculates the flat 10% conveyance VAT, legal fees (2.5-3.5% plus 10% VAT on fees), title search, and Investment Board registration for any specific unit at the specific asking price. Total acquisition cost as a single figure. This number changes the budget conversation for most first-time Bahamas condo buyers.
HOA documentation review
Glenn obtains and reviews the HOA documentation before any offer: current maintenance fee and what it covers; most recent financial statements and reserve fund position; short-term rental policy and minimum stay requirements; rental programme terms and revenue split if a managed pool exists; any pending special assessments. This is the due diligence step that determines whether a rental condo actually delivers the yield the listing implies.
Attorney referral matched to the development
Glenn refers condo buyers to licensed Bahamian attorneys with direct experience of the specific development being purchased. A Bahamian attorney is legally required for all condo transactions. Attorney fees are 2.5-3.5% of the purchase price, Bar Association minimum 3.5% for registered land since January 2026, plus 10% VAT on fees.
Video walk-throughs for remote buyers
Glenn arranges video walk-throughs of shortlisted units for international buyers who are not in Nassau. No Nassau travel is required at any stage of the condo purchase - a notarised power of attorney enables the full transaction to close remotely. See the remote purchase guide.
BIA permit coordination for rental condos
For buyers who intend to rent their condo (short or long-term), a Bahamas Investment Authority permit ($500 USD) is required before closing. Glenn factors this into the timeline and coordinates with the attorney to ensure the permit is obtained before the closing date.
EPR residency assessment and concurrent filing
For qualifying condo purchases at $1,000,000 or above, Glenn assesses EPR eligibility, structures the purchase documentation with residency requirements in mind from day one, and files the EPR application to the Department of Immigration concurrently with the closing. No separate immigration firm required.
Cross-development comparison before commitment
Before any offer, Glenn provides an objective comparison of shortlisted developments at the same price point - covering location, views, HOA structure, rental model (managed pool vs owner-controlled), amenities, and resale liquidity. The comparison prevents buyers from making decisions based on marketing materials alone.
Why the commission structure matters
In Bahamas real estate, the seller pays the agent commission - typically 6% to 10% - from the seller's proceeds at closing. This is true whether or not the buyer has their own agent. If you proceed without a buyer's agent, the commission goes entirely to the seller's agent, and you receive no MLS access, no cost breakdown, no HOA review, no attorney referral, and no EPR support. Engaging Glenn as your buyer's agent adds nothing to your purchase price and gives you all of these services.

Why buy a Bahamas condo with an agent now
The Bahamas Condo Market in 2026 - Verified Data
Nassau luxury sales surged 68% in 2025 with inventory 20% below prior year. Well-priced units sell in weeks. Having an agent with live MLS access before that unit is listed publicly is material.
Verified Bahamas condo market data (2025-2026)
The Bahamas is one of the few Caribbean jurisdictions where the combination of zero income tax, zero capital gains tax, zero inheritance tax, freehold ownership for all foreign buyers, a USD-pegged currency, and Economic Permanent Residency through property investment exist under one legal framework. The Bahamas was the only zero-income-tax Caribbean jurisdiction offering both freehold ownership and EPR through property investment when Knight Frank's 2025 Global Wealth Report found that half of high-net-worth expats in the Bahamas were permanent residents - up from approximately 20% before the pandemic.
For condo buyers specifically, the Nassau market's supply pressure - inventory 20% below prior year, luxury sales up 68% in 2025 - means that well-priced units at sought-after developments are no longer sitting on the market for months. Having an agent with live MLS access who can alert a buyer within hours of a new listing or price reduction at their target development is a practical competitive advantage, not a formality. Glenn's buyers see listings before they appear on public portals and before competing buyers have contacted the seller's agent directly.

Questions answered
Buying Condos in the Bahamas with an Agent - FAQ
Every question buyers ask about working with a licensed agent to buy a Bahamas condo - answered directly.
Do I need a real estate agent to buy a condo in the Bahamas?+
You are not legally required to use a buyer's agent - a licensed Bahamian attorney is the legal requirement. But there is no financial reason to proceed without one. Seller pays the agent commission (typically 6% to 10%) from the seller's proceeds at closing in all Bahamas transactions. If you have no buyer's agent, the commission goes entirely to the seller's agent, and you receive no MLS access, no cost breakdown, no HOA review, no attorney referral, and no EPR support. Engaging Glenn Ferguson as your buyer's agent costs nothing extra above the purchase price and provides all eight services listed on this page. The practical case for buying a Bahamas condo without a buyer's agent is non-existent.
What does a Bahamas condo agent do for a buyer?+
A licensed Bahamas condo buyer's agent provides: current MLS listings matched to budget and objective; a personalised closing cost breakdown - crucially including the flat 10% conveyance VAT - before any offer; HOA documentation review covering maintenance fee, reserve fund health, rental policy, and management agreement; attorney referrals matched to the specific condo development; offer submission; deposit guidance; closing timeline management; BIA permit coordination for rental-use condos; video walk-throughs for remote buyers; and EPR residency assessment and concurrent application filing for qualifying purchases at $1M or above. All of this is provided because the seller pays the commission - the buyer pays nothing extra for any of it.
How do I find a licensed agent to buy a condo in the Bahamas?+
Licensed Bahamas real estate agents hold a BREA (Bahamas Real Estate Association) licence, verifiable at breabahamas.com. All agents operating on the Bahamas MLS are required to be BREA-licensed. When choosing an agent, confirm their BREA licence status, their specific Nassau condo market coverage (whether they cover all developments or only some), and whether they provide EPR residency consultation if residency is part of your objective. Glenn Ferguson is a licensed BREA agent with 24+ years of Nassau and Paradise Island condo experience covering all major developments with live MLS access. Call +1-242-395-8495 or see the full agent profile.
Which Nassau condo developments does Glenn cover?+
Glenn covers all major Nassau and Paradise Island condo developments with live Bahamas MLS access: One Ocean Paradise Island (2-bed from $875K), The Reef at Atlantis (from ~$350K), Aqualina Cable Beach (from $2.65M), One Cable Beach Residences, Palm Cay One Marina (2-bed from $800K), Four Seasons Residences (pre-sale 2027), Baha Mar Residences, Goldwynn, Bayroc, and all other developments on the Bahamas MLS. Contact Glenn at +1-242-395-8495 for current pricing.
Can I buy a Bahamas condo without using an agent?+
Yes, but proceeding without a buyer's agent saves you nothing and costs you the services described on this page. The seller pays the commission regardless - without a buyer's agent, the full commission goes to the seller's agent alone. You receive no MLS shortlist, no cost breakdown, no HOA review, no attorney referral, and no EPR support. The only rational reason to buy without a buyer's agent is if you are already represented by your own licensed Bahamian attorney and have independent MLS access - a situation that applies to very few international buyers.
Who should I call to buy a condo in the Bahamas?+
Call Glenn Ferguson directly at +1-242-395-8495. Glenn is a licensed BREA agent with 24+ years of Nassau and Paradise Island condo experience. He provides current MLS listings for all Nassau, Paradise Island, and Cable Beach condo developments; HOA documentation review before any offer; personalised closing cost breakdowns; attorney referrals; EPR residency assessment and concurrent application for qualifying purchases at $1M or above; and full remote purchase coordination.

"A buyer who comes to me having already decided on a specific development is not a problem - they are halfway there. What I add at that point is the HOA documents, the cost breakdown, the attorney, and the EPR eligibility check. A buyer who comes to me with only a budget is where the work starts: island, development, objective, rental model, and then the HOA. In both cases, the cost to the buyer for that work is zero."Glenn Ferguson - Licensed Bahamas Real Estate Agent (BREA), Nassau Condo Specialist, Nassau, Bahamas
