Buying Sanibel real estate can feel like finding a hidden sanctuary. Living on a low density, tropical island has a way of slowing life down to a natural pace. Fortunately on Sanibel and Captiva, that doesn’t mean you have to lose touch with the rest of the world.
Sanibel Island is an extraordinary place of residence, offering a remote tropical atmosphere while still maintaining a strong global connection. Even beyond Sanibel, international real estate sales across the Sunshine State are some of the highest in the country.
In fact, research by the National Association of Realtors indicates that 1/4 of international home purchases in the U.S. occur in Florida.
“According to the latest report, international sales are not the exception in Florida, they’re simply a normal part of doing business.” – Florida Realtors
