Caye Caulker…  Where can we begin?

The island is the embodiment all things tropical.  Colorful homes & cabanas, friendly people, sandy streets with bicycles and golf carts, a very relaxed atmosphere and a care free lifestyle.  No wonder it’s been on the travel list of so many people for so many years…  Come to Caye Caulker, ‘Go Slow’ and relax in the Caribbean feel of our wonderful island paradise…

We have real estate listings of all types in a whole range of budgets.  Homes and vacant land, business and resorts…  We welcome you to browse through our list of available properties.

We live in Belize full time. Our home has been here in Caye Caulker Village since October of 2007 but prior to that, we lived in Corozal Town on the mainland.  Before we moved to Belize in 2005, we were both RE/MAX Agents in Canada, so we know this business well.  Most people don’t realize that there are NO real estate licensing requirements in Belize and we’re the most experienced Agents on the island with actual real estate training and experience in a regulated market…

We look forward to working with you and making your dream of owning a tropical home or investment a reality…

READY FOR YOUR VACATION OR FULL TIME HOME
SOLAR ELECTRIC AND SOLAR HOT WATER
QUIET, PEACEFUL SETTING AT SOUTH POINT
CONTACT BARRY & CINDY – YOUR RE/MAX CONNECTION ON CAYE CAULKER

In the South Point area of Caye Caulker, peace and quiet is the norm, regardless of what time of the year you visit.  It’s just a 15 minute bike ride into the village for everything you need, then you’re back to the tranquility of life on a tropical island.

This 2+ Bed / 1 Bath Family Vacation Cottage is nestled among the coconut palms on a 60 foot by 90 foot lot.  You’ll also find gumbo limbo trees, buttonwood and even a couple of mature fig trees planted by a previous owner.  The land is cleared in the vicinity of the cottage and the other end of the property has been left in it’s natural state.

The kitchen and living area are open concept.  There are two nice sized bedrooms with a bathroom in between.  The toilet and bathtub with shower are separated from the area where the vanity and linen storage are.  There is also a bunk room next to the second bedroom to accommodate addition guests or children.  Or, it could be used for storage…

There’s a huge covered deck on three sides of the cottage.  Total area, including the deck, is 1440 sqft and the area of the inside of the cottage itself is 656 sqft.

Rain water collected from the roof is stored in two large vats providing plenty of water for the cottage.  There’s a water pump that supplies the kitchen sink and bathroom with running water. It also pumps water up to the roof where the solar water tank is located.  Power for the pump, lights and fans comes from a solar electric system with solar panels on the roof that charge four deep cycle batteries through a charge controller.  The batteries are new and generally provide plenty of power for a comfortable stay at the cottage.

All furnishings and appliances are included.  However, the propane/butane fridge needs repair or replacement and the burner in the oven of the gas range needs service.  Dishes & cookware as well as cutlery & glassware are all there too.  You would literally be able to arrive with your suitcase and have a comfortable stay…  There are even two bikes included!

In addition, there’s an outside shower, a BBQ and a butane tank for the stove.  There’s a well on the property too, although it’s not being used at this point.

This is a ‘second row’ lot, meaning that there is just one property between this lot and the water.  The seashore is just 110 feet away…

The cottage, furnishings and systems are in very good condition but there are a couple of maintenance items to attend to.  A railing at the end of the porch needs repair and some of the screens need a little TLC.  These items have already been factored into the price as the Sellers are looking for a quick sale.

These two, very well maintained vacation rental units are situated on a grassy landscaped lot, right in the village.  There are numerous coconut palms and hibiscus bushes as well as bamboo and even a banana palm.  This is a very nice property!

The two vacation rentals share a common breeze-way between the units and they are accessed by a central staircase from ground level.  The units are very well maintained and clean.  Nothing overstated or fancy but very nice ‘island style’ accommodations.  Each unit has a separate bedroom, a  private bathroom, kitchenette and porch. There are hardwood floors, hardwood & wicker furniture, curtains and screens, ceiling fans and tile & glass block in the bathrooms.

The units are managed by a local company as well as booked by the current Owners.  You could choose to do the same…  Or, you could live in one unit and rent out the other.  Nightly rentals are US$50 – US$70 and a long term rental might be in the US$500 per month range.

The foundation is solid with concrete pad and columns.  Above that, the house is wood construction and an enameled steel roof. In the spring of 2011, many upgrades were completed including a new roof on the building and new bathrooms (with tile and glass blocks, nice!) in both units.  Recently, a new fridge was purchased and installed in one of the units.  The area under the house is a great place to hang-out in a hammock or you could close-in this space and have two more rental accommodations.

This is a really nice investment property with great cash flow potential.  No financials are available but if you are familiar with rentals on Caye Caulker, you can well imagine the potential of this property.

NOTE: Interior photos will be available soon. We have a few inside photos at this time which we can send to you, just ask…

On the east side of Caye Caulker North, this PRIME waterfront corner lot awaits your vacation home or full time residence.  The land is sandy and ‘high & dry’ with no need to add fill or do anything with the land prior to beginning construction.  The property is accessed directly from the main road that runs up & down the caye.  There is a surveyed road on the south side of the lot, giving you a ‘buffer’ zone where no building will ever occur.

The east, waterfront side of the lot measures 120 feet and this property line is located on high, dry land.  Going east from the property line, there is an area of low bushes and grass for about 40 feet.  Then, there is sandy beach along a shallow area that is just behind a narrow row of mangroves.  In other areas of the caye, a narrow band of mangroves like this has been pruned to allow for more views and breezes…  Gaps between the mangroves can allow for boat access to the shallow area described above…

This is a VERY nice property, one of the nicest along this stretch of the North Caye.  Your second or third floor home with have absolutely amazing sunrises and clear views to the Belize Barrier Reef.

High & dry land, east side views and breezes, fenced property, within the zone where power will be available…  This lot has EVERYTHING you could ask for…

LARGEST REAL ESTATE BROKERAGE ON THE ISLAND

…

Please take a moment to
read A Special Note To Our Clients before continuing…  Thanks!
…

On a little tropical island in the Caribbean, off the coast of Belize, there’s a big opportunity to live ‘The Dream’… Live & work on a tropical island in paradise….  Ahhhh….

Caye Caulker Properties For Sale, CCPFS, is the largest Real Estate business on the island of Caye Caulker in Belize.  It’s being offered for sale to just the ‘right’ person, couple or business partners…  CCPFS is owned and operated by Barry & Cindy Beer and it would make an incredible business for another couple or business partners who would like to be self employed and work together.

With over 60 current listings, there’s a wonderful variety of properties for our clients to choose from.  Ranging from homes and businesses to raw land.  Whether our clients are looking for a vacation home, an investment property, a hotel or a resort, we have something for everyone!

Why are we selling our business? Well, it sure isn’t because it is not profitable.  This business has been VERY good to us financially.  We admit that it’s difficult to sell our business after we have worked so hard to build it into what it is today.  However, we have more dreams that we want to come true!  We LOVE to travel and before settling on Caye Caulker, we traveled extensively.  There are other parts of the world we want to explore and to do that, we must sell our business here.

.

ABOUT CAYE CAULKER AND BELIZE

This beautiful island has about 1200 permanent residents with an influx of snowbirds and tourists in the high season.  The main industry here is tourism and it’s very well established.  Caye Caulker has been on the classic Central America tour for decades and it’s one of the top three spots in Belize for holidays and vacation homes.  Popular activities here include diving and snorkeling trips to the Belize Barrier Reef (the second longest barrier reef in the world), which is just over a mile offshore from Caye Caulker.  In addition, lots of people come here for the fishing, wind surfing, kite boarding and kayaking.

Caye Caulker is easy to get to… Major US and Canadian hubs with direct flights include Houston, Miami, Charlotte, Toronto, Vancouver and others.  Once you get to the Philip Goldson International Airport near Belize City, we’re just an 8 minute flight away, or a 45 minute water taxi ride.  Or, you can catch an inexpensive charter flight to Cancun and make your way to Caye Caulker by way of luxury bus and then a water taxi from Chetumal, Mexico…

Upon your arrival here, you can find everything you need for day-to-day living. Caye Caulker has grocery stores, pharmacy & clinics, hardware & building supply stores, restaurants, banks, art galleries and gift shops.  We also have schools and churches, spas and massage therapists, bars and pool halls…  We have it all…

Belize is an English speaking country, the only one in all of Central America.  This makes doing business here very EASY.  Immigration, Customs and all government services are in English! Just step right into a country where the cost of living is low, the quality of life is high and everything & everyone moves at a slower pace…. Ahhhhhh !

MORE ABOUT THE BUSINESS

We are NOT just selling some ‘For Sale’ signs and a box of business cards.  This business has the dominant position in this market and a reputation for professional and friendly real estate guidance for both Buyers and Sellers.

Caye Caulker Properties For Sale has an amazing Real Estate internet presence, the result of years of website development and custom SEO (Search Engine Optimization) work.  This means that whenever internet Real Estate shoppers enter keywords for virtually any Caye Caulker Real Estate search, at least one of our websites (we have six major sites) show up at the top of the list.  Try it!  Ok, some of them are number two or three, but it really IS incredible what we have accomplished.  These organic search results are free, no need for ‘pay per click’ here!

Our client base is extensive, with over 1,000 potential Buyers in our Constant Contact database.  All of these clients have specifically asked to be added to our Listing Notification service and have requested to be notified when we have New Listings or Price Reductions to send out.

The Constant Contact system is a fully integrated email marketing machine, with an HTML email interface and reporting features that tell us how many clients are looking at our Notifications and what pages on our websites that they are visiting.

In Belize, the Real Estate Business process is much the same as it is in North America.  There are a few twists that you’ll have to learn but it’s not a steep learning curve.  One big difference is that the commissions are higher in Belize. And, you should also know that income tax on Real Estate commissions is low at just 15%…  There are NO license requirements for real estate agents in Belize but if you have real estate experience, it can be an asset.  If you don’t have real estate experience, don’t worry, we’ll get you up-to-speed very quickly.   So, there are LOTS of great reasons to call our little tropical island in Belize HOME!

Some Comments from clients:

Hi Barry & Cindy,

Thanks for the update–and although I am happy for you two, I’m sorry for the loss of your enthusiastic expertise!  You both were wonderful in helping us sell the lovely lot on north CC–and I’ve been confident that it’s just a matter of time before the other lots (and, eventually, the Bacalar Chico land) sold.    I was hoping to be able to come down and meet you sometime in the future!
Thanks for all your help.

Seller

~~~~~~~

Barry & Cindy,

Since my recent awareness and interest in Belize and more specifically Caye Caulker, I feel I’ve come to know you and your island through your impressively maintained website. It’s unfortunate that you may have already moved on before we even get to visit Caye Calker. I can only guess that you will create a significant void on the island upon your departure.

I’ll be following any developments you communicate about the sale of your business and wish you continued success, wherever you travel.

Best of Luck!

Buyer

~~~~~~~

Dear Barry and Cindy,

We will be sorry to have you leave the island. Also will miss your competent running of the business. You have built up a great business from scratch.

Thanks, Seller

~~~~~~~

OMG ! You are living CC ? I burn to have more details..  Too bad I can’t share a cold beer and have a chat with you at The Split !  Any plans ?

Buyer

~~~~~~~

Dear Barry and Cindy,

Sorry to hear that,  may the Lord bless you guys with the desires of your heart and protect you all wherever you go.

Blessings,

Seller

Ok Sir,

Thank you… So you’re leaving the Island? You mentioned you like traveling. You and the Mrs should visit the Azores Islands, I was raised there. Beautiful place. I will be inheriting property there one day.

Thanks Barry & Cindy,

Have a great weekend and I hope you have luck with your sale too!
