A distinctive choice for the unique investor. Applicants may qualify for citizenship through an investment in an Approved Private Home.
  • The minimum investment in a condominium unit designated as an Approved Private Home is US$400,000.
  • The minimum investment in a single-family private dwelling home designated as Approved Private Home is US$800,000.

RESALE

  • A property purchased under the Private Home Sale Investment Option shall not be resold for a period of at least seven (7) years.
  • The Approved Private Home does not qualify for purchase in a subsequent CBI application, unless the Federal Cabinet is satisfied that substantial further investment was injected into the real estate unit by way of further construction, renovation or otherwise.
