RESIDENCY or CITIZENSHIP by INVESTMENT
What is RBI or Golden Visa?
Residence by Investment government programs (RBI) are government approved ways to offer you a permanent residency against an investment in a approved property like an apartment or villa/house.
Several countries offers these programs in Europe like: Spain, Greece and Cyprus
These countries we work with have the most suitable programs in Europe and we can therefore help you in the process obtaining this residency when you purchase a real estate through us.
This means you can purchase a real estate and at the same time apply for a residency in this country.
You can buy one, two or several real estate,
and live in them if you need or rent them out to also make money of the investment. If you have a family and kids you can put kids in school and have the benefits of European education system, lifestyle and EU health system.
At same time it allows you to freely travel in Europe
without hassle of getting a Visa each time.
RBI schemes offer a path to future citizenship usually after five years depending on the country.
Most programs do not require you to live or move permanently in the country.
These government programs are named by many terms like RBI schemes, Investor visas, Immigrant investor program (IIP) and Golden visa.
Countries we work with like Antigua and Grenada also offers Passport when investing in real estate in those countries, these are then called Citizenship By Investment, CBI.
