st croix investments: St Croix Real Estate Recovering Strongly - 08/29/10 02:50 PM
Global Property Guide recently posted an thorough analysis of US Virgin Island Real Estate. While they addressed all three islands, St Croix, St Thomas, and St John, the statistics and outlook presented below are for St Croix. Read the entire article at GlobalPropertyGuide.com. Our housing market has still not quite recovered from 2008, similar to the rest of the North American real estate market, but statistics and corporate commitments on the island give reason to be optimistic.
There is no question that Gov. deJongh's territorial government - which oversees all three islands - is a major reason for the economic recovery. He is positioning all of the … (0 comments)

st croix investments: Christiansted, VI - Judith's Fancy - Exceptional Oceanfront Home - 07/20/10 04:53 PM
I work in St Croix as a buyer's agent - and one of the many things I enjoy is finding "exceptional" deals. Usually, when I spy a home or land or condo that is a really good value, it sells quickly. Unfortunately, many times these properties sell before I can even get the word out to my customers!
There are bargains on St Croix in all price ranges and for every kind of buyer. Breakers Villa is not for everyone......but if you are looking for a waterfront home that will produce a good income until you are ready to live in it, then this could … (0 comments)
