HG Christie Showcases The Bahamas At Global Real Estate Speaker Series

Nassau, The Bahamas – HG Christie, The Bahamas’ largest and oldest real estate firm, was honored to represent The Bahamas at the inaugural Global Real Estate Speaker Series hosted by the District of Columbia Association of Realtors (DCAR) last month. This quarterly hybrid event was designed to equip individuals with the knowledge needed to navigate international real estate investment opportunities in some of the world’s most desirable destinations.

Real Estate Broker & Appraiser Elbert Thompson of HG Christie was a featured speaker, delivering a compelling presentation titled “Navigating the Real Estate Landscape in The Bahamas.” His insights provided attendees—both in-person and virtual—with a deeper understanding of the Bahamian real estate market, investment opportunities, and key considerations for foreign buyers.

“The Bahamas has long been a premier destination for international investors looking for stability, tax advantages, and, of course, the unmatched beauty of island living,” said Thompson. “Events like this allow us to connect with potential buyers, educate them on the process, and showcase The Bahamas as an attractive option for second-home ownership, investment properties, and permanent residency.”

HG Christie’s participation underscored its commitment to fostering global real estate connections and helping international buyers make informed decisions. The session featured an engaging discussion on market trends, property options—from beachfront condos to private islands—and the advantages of investing in The Bahamas, including its close proximity to the U.S. and a government that actively encourages foreign investment.

Also participating in the session were representatives from the Bahamas Ministry of Tourism & Aviation, the Bahamas Investment Authority, mortgage broker and tax consultant Nathaniel Butler, and attorney Shannelle Bethell. Their collective expertise provided attendees with a comprehensive overview of the investment process and legal framework in The Bahamas.

“The interest from real estate professionals and investors in the DC area was overwhelming,” Thompson noted. “There is a clear appetite for greater collaboration between our markets, and we look forward to strengthening these ties in the future.”

As The Bahamas’ leading real estate brokerage, HG Christie continues to be at the forefront of international real estate outreach, providing exceptional service to clients worldwide. The company’s affiliation with Christie’s International Real Estate further solidifies its position as a trusted resource for those seeking premium property investments in The Bahamas.

HG Christie President John Christie emphasized the importance of global outreach for the firm’s agents, stating, “International engagement is a key part of our strategy to benefit both our Bahamian and international clients. I am pleased to see the initiative of agents like Elbert Thompson, who take the time to connect with markets abroad and showcase the many opportunities available in The Bahamas.”
