We operate as your dedicated acquisition and underwriting team on the ground in Sint Maarten. Every property is sourced against defined criteria, underwritten for operational feasibility, and closed through a controlled execution process. This is a structured acquisition service — not transactional brokerage.
Our local network includes direct developer relationships, off-market deal flow, resale brokerage partnerships, and pre-construction allocations. We monitor inventory across all major developments on the Dutch side.
Properties are pre-screened against your engagement criteria before presentation: location, segment, unit type, condition, and estimated operating profile. You never review a property we haven't already vetted.
Small enough for direct oversight. Concentrated enough for operational efficiency. Every development is within 15 minutes.
Studios, one-bedrooms, two-bedrooms — balanced to capture different demand profiles and price points across seasons.
Spreading across two or three locations reduces concentration risk without sacrificing management efficiency on a compact island.
Units selected to complement each other's demand patterns — ensuring operational coverage across high season, shoulder months, and summer.
Buying five units one at a time through five different brokers produces a fragmented collection. Assembling five units through a structured engagement produces a portfolio.
Coordinated with local notaries and the Land Registry Office (Kadaster) — clear title, lien status, and encumbrance history confirmed.
Licensed inspectors evaluate physical condition: roof, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and hurricane resilience features.
Confirmation of permitted use, short-term rental eligibility, building permits, and any pending regulatory changes.
HOA management quality, reserve fund adequacy, community rule enforcement, and long-term capital planning. Weak governance is a disqualifier.
Each candidate assessed for platform integration: access systems, vendor coverage, proximity to existing managed inventory.
Estimated costs, insurance requirements, vendor pricing, and utilization potential — compiled against segment benchmarks. Economics shared under NDA.
Civil-law notary engagement, deed preparation, transfer tax coordination (currently 4%), and Kadaster registration. Remote closing via power of attorney available.
Interior design packages tailored to rental segment. Vendor procurement for appliances, linens, technology systems. Light renovation managed through vetted contractor network.
Business licensing, short-term rental registration, and comprehensive property insurance placement — hurricane, windstorm, flood, and liability.
Smart-lock integration, professional photography, listing copywriting, channel distribution setup, and management system activation. Typical timeline: 3–8 weeks post-closing.
From closing to guest-ready, fully managed — furnishing, licensing, insurance, and platform integration included.
