Nicaragua: The Universe’s Best Kept Retirement Secret

Are you ready to retire? With the real estate market in a full-blown meltdown, the U.S. on the verge of a recession, and the stock market tumbling, it is not a fun time to consider retiring. In fact, many potential retirees are having to extend their working years later and later just so they can scrape by. It just doesn’t seem fair.

What happened to living the good life in your “golden years”? Where did your dreams of finally relaxing after years of hard work vanish? Do you worry about how you’ll ever make ends meet?

If you are feeling the pinch and punch of this “uncomfortable” time in U.S. history, you are certainly not alone. Countless thousands of individuals in their late 50s, 60s, and even 70s, both those already retired as well as those ready to retire, are being faced with the prospect of having to keep working or even return to the workforce just to get by. Once respectable nest eggs and savings are quickly diminishing with the fall of the stock market, and with rapidly falling house prices, the money many expected they’d make on their home sale, just isn’t going to pay out.

Dreams of retiring to such domestic hotspots as Florida, Arizona, or California just aren’t feasible any more. But, don’t fret; more and more Americans are realizing there is an alternative. More and more retirees are pulling up their roots and beginning one of the biggest, most exciting adventures of their lifetimes – they’re choosing to invest in one of the world’s best-kept retirement secrets: Nicaragua!

Though Nicaragua is commonly seen as a “land of the poor,” the wealth of the land is in­comparable to that of any other country. Filled with gorgeous mountains, splendid green­ery, and some of the cleanest lakes that you ever will see, Nicaragua is truly a sight to see.

In fact, over 5,000 Americans have already made the decision to see it and call Nicaragua home, and that’s in addition to thousands of English-speaking expatriates from around the world who make Nicaragua one of the most desirable locations to retire.

There’s never been a better time to live and invest in Nicaragua. With the recent hurricanes, prices are at an all time low. The rebuilding effort is in full swing and retirees are scooping up cream of the crop properties at seriously discounted prices. Add to that the fact that the government is welcoming foreign retirees who want to live the Nicaraguan experience by offering rebates to foreigners over the age of 45 looking to buy property.

According to the “Law of Resident Pensioners and Retirees,” foreigners over 45 that choose to move to Nicaragua can be eligible for extra benefits as long as they have a monthly income that totals at least $400. Retirees that meet this requirement don’t have to pay taxes on earnings that come from out of country – this is huge! In addition, retirees don’t have to pay duty or import taxes on imported household goods up to $10,000, or on an imported car intended for personal use.

Once reserved for the world’s elite and most savvy investors, Nicaraguan real estate investing is quickly becoming the best way for retirees to find their own seventh heaven and begin living the lives they always dreamed were possible. If you’ve ever dreamed of living, investing, or retiring to your very own private paradise, don’t miss the opportunity to start living the good life you deserve.
