Panama itself is the southernmost country of Central America – which is rapidly becoming the major area for overseas property investors.. It borders Costa Rica, Colombia, The Caribbean Sea and the Pacific Ocean. Panama is an international business centre and is also a transit country.
The national currency (technically the “Balboa”), is matched on a 1:1 basis with
the US$, and for all but minor transactions, the US$ is normally used. Naturally,
being allied with the world’s foremost currency has its benefits, and the net result has been monetary and price stability almost unique in emerging markets.
Panama City is currently experiencing rising property values, partly owing to the planned expansion of the Panama Canal which is probably the country’s most famous and most important asset providing a large chunk of Panama’s recurring income.

On the one hand, Panama City is the financial heart of Central
America, a banking metropolis, with modern skyscrapers, good night
life and great shopping. On the other hand, it also offers virgin
beaches, spectacular mountains, first-class fishing and great water
sports facilities, with the added thrill of two oceans to choose from!
The weather is wonderful, boasting consistently high temperatures throughout the year.

Of course, all this investment potential is of no use, without the tools to take full
advantage, and Panama doesn’t disappoint here either. Historically conservative
lending approach has meant its banking industry isn’t being hit by the credit
crunch being felt in the US and UK (no such thing as a buy-to-let or stated income loan here). 70% LTV mortgages are available with 6% interest rates. There’s a good choice of Panama City banks (e.g. HSBC, Banco General, Scotia etc.).

In addition to all the background factors that make Panama a great investment
prospect, there are significant fiscal incentives to encourage the property investor:

There are significant tax incentives offered to investors in Panama. First, there
are no exchange controls in existence. Second, foreign investment is welcomed
and can be freely repatriated, so extracting gains from Panama is no problem.
Third, Capital Gains Tax is very low. Finally, 20 year exoneration is also available for property tax on some new construction projects.

For those seeking somewhere to retire in later years it is worth noting that many agencies around the world rate Panama the number one place for retirees, and
for good reason. Aside from the “near perfect” climate, personal safety and not
to mention the hospitality of the locals, there is a host of additional government
benefits to retirees in Panama. Small wonder the real estate market is responding as retirees are buying their second homes there.

These benefits include:

• Importation of all your personal/household goods and a car free of taxes
• Right to import a new car every two years free of taxes
• 25% off domestic and international airline tickets
• 50% off entertainment including movies, concerts, theatre (movie ticket for $2.00)
• 25% off restaurants
• 50% off hotel accommodations Monday-Thursday
• 30% off bus, boat and train fares
• 10% prescription medicines
• 15% off dental and eye exams
• 50% off closing costs for home loans
• 30% off hotels from Friday through Sunday
• 15% off fast food restaurants
• 15% off hospital bills (if no insurance applies)
