Belize vs USA - Cost of Living by MyBetterHalf
I've read articles stating the cost of living in Belize is essentially the same as living in the USA. For those who have taken the plunge and made the move, can you give the rest of us an idea of what it takes to live there. I'm not looking ...

Selling property in belize by Prestonia
Part of the take away from the discussion is that you need to think about what buyers want when you start to build, and you aren't likely to get back all of the money that you put in. The market is artificially inflated by expat owners who want to ...
But some may. Depends what you build. Where you build. And whether the market is buoyant or depressed. abelizehomeforus.wordpress.com Read More
Application online for QRP by George2121
Hi ... I was just reading here about the QRP. It was mentioned that you can apply "online". What website is that application on? I just arrived in Belize last week and will rent for a while. Will the Govt accept "online" letters and statements? or ...
Hi Rick. I applied for entry in to the "QRP" without using an attorney/facilitator. The process isn't at all difficult once you have the necessary supporting documentation that is required to support your application. From the point of the ... Read More
