Investment property: Sri Lanka
We act on the buyer's side: shortlist, checks, end-to-end deal support.
Sri Lanka is a resort market with a long coastline and growing tourist flows, but foreigners face one significant restriction: direct freehold purchase of land is prohibited or heavily restricted. The standard routes are condominium apartments, which foreigners can own outright, and long-term land leases. There is no citizenship by real estate program; long-term visas for foreigners exist, but they are not directly tied to buying a home. The wider context matters too: the country went through a severe economic crisis in 2022, a reminder that currency and regulatory risks here are real.
We start with an honest assessment of whether Sri Lanka fits your goal - an ocean home for yourself, an apartment for rental or a long-term bet on tourism growth. We then source property in a form legally available to foreigners - condominium or leasehold - verify legal cleanliness with local lawyers, including the land rights under the project, manage the transaction and help structure ownership. Visa questions are handled separately from the purchase, with no illusions about residency for real estate. We make no return promises - in emerging markets, the quality of due diligence matters more than glossy presentations.
