Retire Whether it's the warm weather (temperatures remain in the 80s (28C) year around), the activties (golfing, sailing, diving, or just lying by the pool, to name a few), or the great retirement community (how about lunch with the R.O.M.E.O.s? - "Retired Old Men Eating Out") - Water Island is an ideal place to spend your Golden Years!

Financing Information
Mortgages are easily attainable in the USVI, since it is a territory of the United States. Scotia Bank and First Bank are currently offering what we feel are favorable finance options for purchases of raw land, although there are branch offices from many other financial institutions as well. The terms are similar to those found in North America, and given the continued upswing in land values in USVI, and especially Water Island, the opportunity for high returns are excellent.
Construction and development money is also readily available through the multitude of financial institutions present in St. Thomas.
The owners have excellent realtionships with lenders in the area and will be happy to assist buyers with the process.
Title insurance and all of the neccessary protections are standard in the USVI.
The property owners are prepared to offer secondary financing on the lots, should it be neccessary, to assist potential buyers with their investment, subject to pre-qualification.
