Cable TV and High Speed Internet​ Most of us aspire at some point in our lives to own a vacation home. For some, it is an accessory to a lifestyle or a means to other pursuits like fishing, diving, or just entertaining friends and business associates. For the same expenditure you might spend to own an asset alone, you can own a substantially larger and nicer home that you can use and enjoy without the hassle and cost of traditional second home ownership by investing in a Fractional Ownership.
With our unique approach to vacation home ownership, you will enjoy the
benefits of owning a newly constructed, fully furnished, beachfront estate
without all of the expense and hassle. When you become an investor in The
Placencia House, you will have exclusive access to the estate for 5 weeks out of
the year and share in the benefits of an appreciating asset. You will have the
same rights and benefits as if you were the sole owner of the property for a
fraction of the cost and none of the hassle. ​

Belize has many tax and banking benefits for people who are looking to invest in the area, including offshore banking.
Offshore Banking is simply banking in a jurisdiction other than the one in which you live. Belize is a leading Caribbean offshore jurisdiction, and many visitors to Belize are intrigued about offshore banking. The growth in international travel, coupled with the increasing use of the Internet to make a living or help manage businesses from afar, have led to growing use of offshore banking and offshore trusts. Others have made the same decisions to relocate or diversify their financial affairs and open offshore accounts.
Offshore banking could have tax benefits, i.e. interest on offshore accounts and investments is paid without the deduction of tax. You may also be able to reduce your tax liability in your home country by transferring savings and investments to an offshore bank account. Added benefits include high levels of confidentiality, security and convenience, as well as global access and a credit/debit card facility so you can spend your money anywhere in the world.
Laws relating to foreigners buying property in Belize: There are no restrictions with regards to foreigners purchasing land or property in Belize. Belize is part of the British Commonwealth and the legal system is based on British common law. A foreigner has the same rights as a Belizean citizen to freehold property ownership.
There are no licenses, permits, special permissions or conditions needed for a foreigner to take title to freehold land in Belize.
Visa requirements: Citizens of the US, European Union and Commonwealth countries do not require visas if they have a passport and return ticket. Most other nationalities require a visa. British embassies frequently handle Belize's diplomatic affairs.
