Representing Clients Who Acquire Property in St. Lucia

Anyone, regardless of nationality and location, can acquire property in St. Lucia. While the citizenship of a potential buyer will not limit their ability to purchase, citizenship does play a role in the resulting legal process.

St. Lucia citizens can acquire property without any additional legal steps. A St. Lucia real estate attorney is ready to represent their interests immediately once they identify a piece of property that they wish to purchase.

Athena Law specializes in assisting non-citizens in navigating the specific laws that apply in St. Lucia. This can include obtaining an alien landholding license if a buyer wishes to acquire property while maintaining citizenship in their home country or identifying qualifying real estate or other options that may qualify a buyer for the citizenship by investment program.
