You may have read or heard me speak about the reasons buying property in Belize is a good choice compared to other countries. One of those reasons is for PRIVACY PROTECTION. Certain countries are litigious. Certain professions are more litigious than others, which has people considering buying property worldwide using ENTITIES. There are tax benefits for owning property in an entity. A lawyer or a tax advisor would guide you in understanding the benefits and how it would impact your situation. If you would like a recommendation for a lawyer or tax advisor, contact us, and we’ll send you who…
As the year comes to a close, I think I speak for many people when I say goodbye 2020! We are all glad the elections are over in the US, and here in Belize.

I just returned for my first in-person meet up since the Create Your Future™ Goals Setting Retreat, which we do every year in January. Virtual meetings are okay, but it…
