Turks & Caicos Real Estate Market Report - 3rd Quarter 2022 YTD Comparison
TCI REAL ESTATE MARKET SEEING NEW DEVELOPMENT EXPAND
With the exception of 2021, the 3rd Quarter is historically our quietest quarter due to the back-to-school and hurricane seasons, to be followed by a significant uptick in 4th Quarter as we gear up for our busy season. As such, Q3 2022 is proving to be more in line with previous years’ activity and still in line with pre–covid peaks.
As illustrated in this report, real estate sales are still holding steady alongside an exceptional 2021. For this 3rd Quarter 2022, the overall graph has been broken down into sales volume by quarter for each of the past four years, indicating the ebb and flow of volume through each quarter. Pending deals that are slated to close out at year-end 2022 currently place the real estate market 38% ahead of 2019 year-end sales volume which was a record year itself. Considering the pending sales on the MLS, projected 2022 year-end sales volume will be very close to $500M and represents another record year in the making.
Within the 2nd Quarter report, we mentioned that several developers have exciting projects on the forefront which will be launched very soon that will help bridge the gap to sustain our market’s decade-long momentum. We are happy to present these new developments in the following pages which include a mix of pre-construction offerings. New Development is essential in real estate and we are entering a new wave of extremely high-quality projects from legacy developers, including ARC and NIVA from Windward Developments (Blue Cay, South Bank), a re-imagined Villas at Blue Mountain by Hartling Group, and the soon-to-be announced Grace Bay Resorts project next door to Point Grace.
On the community front: The “Footsteps 4 Good” Charitable Event kicked off on October 21st. The event is a 224-mile circumnavigation of the beautiful by nature Turks and Caicos Islands over 13 days, touching 24 islands and cays. The water wading, swimming, walking, running, biking, kayaking and rowing island-hopping charitable event is hosted under the patronage of Mrs. Mandy Dakin, wife of His Excellency Governor Nigel Dakin. The charitable event was started by Jill Beckingham, wife of previous governor, Peter Beckingham. Mandy Dakin promised to restart the venture but with an ambitious twist covering the full length of the Islands: Providenciales through to North, Middle, East and South Caicos, then crossing to Grand Turk, Salt Cay, and finally completing the circle back to Providenciales via Sand Cay, Ambergris Cay, French Cay, and West Caicos. “The event builds on community spirit. United we are all stronger and can achieve amazing results. Not everyone is a marathon runner, but everyone knows how to walk. What could be better, raising money for our favourite charities whilst improving our health and fitness.” Stated Mandy Dakin in a recent article on The SunTCI.
We are thankful as always for the support of our clients and community and look forward to welcoming you to our shores this fall and festive season.
