Top Travel Destinations To Invest In ✈️ 💰

Inflation and housing prices in the US have many in our network seeking opportunities elsewhere to live and grow their wealth. Below, we spotlight a few destinations that offer compelling investment opportunities, whether you're looking to buy real estate, invest privately, or even relocate:

Mexico
Mexico remains a top choice for Americans seeking an affordable lifestyle without forgoing quality. Urban centers like Mexico City and coastal retreats such as Cancun and Oaxaca offer vibrant living options at costs significantly lower than most major U.S. cities. Since 2020, Mexico's dynamic economy has seen remarkable growth in foreign investments and startup culture, highlighted by the emergence of its first unicorn company. As of 2023, Mexico has nurtured over nine unicorn companies, a testament to the country's stable economic growth. The median single-family home price stands at $100K USD, presenting a prime opportunity for early-stage investors. U.S. citizens can enter Mexico with a tourist visa that permits stays of up to 180 days, with temporary residency visas available for up to four years, simplifying the investment process.

Belize
Belize is experiencing its most significant tourism boom, making it an emerging hotspot for investors in real estate and tourism. Known for its English-speaking populace and stunning natural scenery, Belize offers a straightforward investment pathway for U.S. citizens. The cost of starting a business here is lower than in many U.S. regions, accompanied by significant tax incentives for foreign investors. Median single-family home prices are attractive at $225K USD, varying by location, with recent government initiatives aimed at reducing barriers for foreign investors. For those planning longer stays, Belize’s Qualified Retired Persons (QRP) program allows eligible investors to live and conduct business under favorable conditions.

Ghana
Ghana represents a vibrant and politically stable option for investors aiming to tap into opportunities in Africa. It is experiencing consistent economic growth, with substantial progress in the real estate, agriculture, and technology sectors. The cost of doing business is generally lower than in many developed countries, with the government offering various incentives for foreign direct investments such as tax breaks and import duty exemptions. Median real estate prices are rising but remain accessible, with single-family units averaging around $100K. Ghana’s investment framework is streamlined for foreigners, particularly U.S. citizens, with no restrictions on the repatriation of profits and capital, making it an attractive option for those looking to diversify their investment portfolios internationally.

Guatemala Is Like That 🇬🇹

As the Central American dry season draws to a close, our resident explorer, Jamal, made a timely visit to Guatemala just before the rainy season begins. Known for its stunning landscapes that range from lush rainforests and imposing volcanoes to serene lakes and beautiful beaches, Guatemala is a treasure trove of experiences. Here are five must-do activities to include in your Guatemala itinerary:

1. Explore the Mayan Ruins at Tikal: Journey into the heart of the jungle to uncover the ancient mysteries of one of the largest archaeological sites and urban centers of the pre-Columbian Maya civilization.

2. Swim in Natural Limestone Pools at Semuc Champey: Dive into the refreshing, turquoise waters of these natural pools formed by a natural limestone bridge, hidden in the lush jungles of Guatemala.

3. Relax at Lake Atitlan: Surrounded by volcanoes and quaint villages, Lake Atitlan is perfect for relaxation. Enjoy the scenic views, visit local markets, or indulge in water activities in what Aldous Huxley once called 'the most beautiful lake in the world'.

4. Hike Dormant and Active Volcanoes: Whether you choose the smoldering Pacaya or the tranquil slopes of dormant giants, hiking these volcanic landscapes offers unforgettable views and adventures.

5. Discover Antigua: Wander through the cobblestone streets of Antigua, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and savor its rich history, stunning colonial architecture, vibrant culture, and delectable cuisine.

Guatemala is an enchanting destination that promises diverse adventures and unforgettable memories. Make sure to bring your sense of adventure and a good camera!
