Five Caribbean islands launch real estate hub to streamline citizens by investment programme



A new platform, the Real Estate Hub, has been designed to connect global investors with government-approved real estate opportunities eligible for citizenship by investment across the Caribbean.

The platform provides access to curated listings in five Caribbean jurisdictions offering CBI programs: Antigua & Barbuda, Dominica, Grenada, St. Kitts & Nevis, and St. Lucia. Listings are said to be vetted for program eligibility, allowing users to confidently explore and compare real estate options that qualify for second citizenship.

The platform is the creation of NTL Trust an investment and wealth management firm.  NTL said in its press release that the launch of the Real Estate Hub marks a significant enhancement of NTL Trust’s services, reflecting its 30+ years of experience in the investment migration industry. The company has operated in the Caribbean since the inception of CBI programs in the region and brings extensive on-the-ground knowledge of regulatory frameworks, local markets, and program evolution.

The platform was developed to simplify the real estate component of the citizenship process by offering:

A country-filtered search of approved developments

Direct access to on-ground experts and a free consultation option

Educational tools, including a Newbies Guide to Caribbean Real Estate

A news section covering real estate and program updates

Dan Merriam, an advisor with Sotheby’s International Realty in the Caribbean, emphasized the evolving priorities of global investors:

“With donation thresholds rising in 2024, real estate has firmly positioned itself as the future of Caribbean Citizenship by Investment. Investors today aren’t just seeking a second passport—they’re acquiring prime assets in markets poised for sustained growth and international appeal.”

With stricter due diligence requirements and rising demand for tangible investments, real estate has emerged as a preferred route for applicants seeking transparency, long-term value, and lifestyle upside.

“This is more than a real estate site,” Dan added. “It’s a reliable, structured resource for affluent families and investors looking for secure, long-term options in a fast-changing world.”The NTL Real Estate Hub is now live at https://realestatehub.ntltrust.com/
