Top 5 Reasons why you should invest in the USVI
1. The Virgin Islands are a US Territory
The US Virgin Islands are a US Territory protected by federal laws and regulations. That means buying real estate on St. Thomas, St. John, or St. Croix is much like purchasing property stateside, with familiar legal protections and processes. Plus, with only a short flight to the U.S. mainland, it’s easy to travel back and forth between the islands and the states if you own property in both places.
2. Competitive Tax Benefits for Residents
The USVI’s Economic Development Commission offers one of the most competitive tax benefits packages in the world. For qualifying individuals and businesses, this can translate to up to a 90% reduction in income taxes and a full 100% exemption on property taxes, making it an especially attractive incentive for relocation and investment.
3. Promising Rental Prospects for Property Managers
Rental properties have high occupancy and strong long-term potential, so now is a great time to invest in the US Virgin Islands. Airbnb bookings for St. Thomas jumped 600% year-over-year in 2018, rose another 338% in 2019, and demand surged again in 2020 as remote work increased interest in vacation rentals.
4. Investment Properties are 1031-Exchange Eligible
Investment properties in the US Virgin Islands qualify for a tax-deferred property exchange, commonly referred to as a like-kind or 1031 exchange. Therefore, if you currently own investment or rental real estate elsewhere, you can leverage the 1031 exchange to pursue attractive investment opportunities in the US Virgin Islands while deferring capital gains taxes.
5. Warm Weather Year-Round
More people now work and study remotely, so many want to move to warmer places. Demand for short- and long-term rentals in warm areas has surged across the US. Whether you live in the USVI year‑round or rent to visitors, the steady warm weather means a long vacation season everyone can enjoy.
