Belize did a quite incredible job of pretending that the global economic crisis never happened – the real estate market has been doing incredibly well over recent years. Which isn’t surprising on the whole as this beautiful corner of Central America is world-renowned for its breath-taking beauty, enviable climate and quaint culture all of its own. Demand for holiday and business rentals is generally high the whole year-round, while holiday and retirement home buyers are flocking to the beaches and backstreets of Belize in growing numbers. From the Mayan ruins to the barrier reef and every natural wonder in-between, there are millions of reasons to pay a visit to Belize and…as so many are realising…almost none to leave.
