Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Aruba Realty is a full-service real estate brokerage on Aruba, working with buyers, sellers, investors and tenants across the island. Our portfolio covers beachfront condos in Palm Beach and Eagle Beach, family homes in Noord, Tanki Leendert and Santa Cruz, villas in Tierra del Sol and Malmok, building land in Balashi and Savaneta, and commercial property in Oranjestad.
Aruba's market attracts a mix of local families and international second-home buyers from North America, the Netherlands and Latin America. Demand stays strong because the island combines a stable Dutch legal system, a currency pegged to the US dollar, year-round sunshine outside the hurricane belt, and no restrictions on foreign ownership. That combination makes Aruba real estate as much a lifestyle decision as an investment one.
As part of the Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices network, every listing we take on reaches an international audience of qualified buyers, while the day-to-day work stays in the hands of licensed agents who live here. From the first valuation to the notary appointment, you work with one team that knows the districts, the paperwork and the realistic price.
Yes. There are no restrictions on foreign ownership in Aruba. Non-residents can buy property land or long lease land in their own name, and the transfer is handled by a local civil-law notary who registers the deed at the land registry.
Property land (eigendom) is owned outright. Long lease land (erfpacht) is government land leased for a fixed term, usually 60 years, against an annual ground rent. Both are financeable and both can be sold; long lease simply carries a lease term and yearly fee.
Expect transfer tax, notary and registration fees on top of the agreed price. Financing adds mortgage deed costs. We give every buyer a written cost breakdown before they sign.
Palm Beach, Eagle Beach and Malmok for beachfront condos and rental income; Noord and Tanki Leendert for family homes; Tierra del Sol for golf and villa living; Savaneta and Santa Cruz for quieter, more local island life.
