Europe

Golden Visas

Europe's residency-by-purchase map just got smaller

Spain shut its Golden Visa in April 2025. Portugal dropped real estate in 2023 — qualifying now runs through investment funds from €500,000. Greece is the last holdout, still property-based, from €250,000 up to €800,000 in premium spots.

Visa-free for 90 days in any 180 under Schengen. Best scouting windows: April–May or September–October.

Puerto Rico

Act 60

Act 60 just got extended 20 more years

0% on capital gains, dividends, and interest for qualifying residents. Act 38-2026 extends the program to 2055 — apply before Jan 1, 2027 to lock the 0% rate before it steps up to 4%. Property purchase required within 2 years.

No passport needed for U.S. visitors — it's a domestic flight. Best window: late spring.

Belize

Freehold Ownership

The simplest foreign purchase you'll ever make

Common law lets U.S. buyers hold freehold title outright — no trust, no local partner required. USD-pegged since 1976, no capital gains tax. Most resort condos are leasehold, so title search matters.

No visa needed under 30 days. English is the official language.
