CUBA ALLOWS REAL ESTATE SALES

Havana El Morro


Varadero News Cuba. The Cuban government announced in Havana today that Cuba has approved a law allowing Cuban people to buy and sell homes for the first time in 50 years, in the latest instalment of President Raul Castro's reforms of the island's Soviet-style economy.

Published Thursday in the Official Gazette, the law applies to Cuban citizens and permanent residents and allows sales, donations and exchanges between private parties.

The reform goes into effect November 10 with the goal of "contributing to the solution of the housing problem" and "guaranteeing the effective exercise of the rights of owners," the law said.

The measure is part of a series of economic reforms aimed at reviving the economy of the communist-ruled island and easing a severe housing shortage.

CASTRO YES TO REAL ESTATE SALES
Castro has begun the process of reorganizing a system in which 85 percent of the country's five million workers are employed by the state.

The expansion of the private sector was the main plank in reform plans endorsed at the Sixth Congress of the Communist Party, in an effort to restructure a Soviet-style economic model and revive a stagnant economy while stopping short of creating a market-led system.

Nearly 80 percent of Cubans own their residences but until now the only transactions available were under a complex system of informal exchanges. At the same time, the country is believed to have a deficit of around a million homes, with the situation made worse by a shortage of building materials and hurricane damage in recent years.

Three years ago, the government acknowledged that its national housing construction and maintenance program was meeting only five to seven percent of the population's needs.

In the absence of authorized home sales, a vast underground economy had grown up in which large sums of money changed hands.

So, for example, a young couple seeking more space would have to pay several thousand dollars off the books to take over a pensioner's four room residence in central Havana.

Under the new system, such a transfer would be a straight commercial transaction with the seller paying the state a four percent sales tax. All homes must now be registered with the government to identify their rightful owners.

In an effort to discourage speculation, the new law allows Cubans to own just one main residence and one secondary home.

A census that is to be conducted next year will provide the government with a truer picture not only of demographic trends but also of the real estate situation in the country.

The new law had been widely expected under the reforms adopted by the party, and comes after a measure allowing the private sale of automobiles in early October.

A separate law allowing Cubans greater freedom to travel abroad is expected to be enacted before the end of the year.

Under the new reforms, the number of private business operators has hit more than 333,000, above the expectations of the authorities, from 148,000 in 2010.

Last year, Castro's government vastly expanded the number of sectors where private enterprises can operate, with 181 professions now open.

BUY CONDO IN VARADERO CUBA

Varadero Beach Condos For Sale
Cuba Travel will soon be replaced by Cuba Condos if the new Cuban Real Estate  laws come into effect. Soon foreigners will soon be able to buy and sell real estate like homes, villas on luxury golf course and marina condos in Varadero Cuba same as they now do in Florida, New York, London or Toronto.
Cubans are competing in the Caribbean real estate market with Mexico. Cuban officials want to make sure the tourism real estate safe enough to meet international investment standards.

Tourism-related development projects are on the designing boards of international investment companies for more than a decade are poised to reap the huge benefits of a changing of realestate laws in Cuba.

Cuban tourism is going upscale by advertising construction of Cuban golf courses and marinas under the Cuban Executive Council of State law that now permits 99-year leases on Cuban land to foreign real estate developers to build tourism-related investment projects.

Foreign developers that have been lining up  for new Varadero golf and condo projects just because of the 99-year lease as the equivalent of outright ownership an increase from the old 50-year leases.
Miami lawyers have been researching Cuba's real estate investment laws in Cuba for more than 40 years waiting for this opportunity. This shows the World that Raúl Castro's government wants to open up the economy toward the China model while Fidel is not opposed nor can he reverse the process.

Regulations for foreign ownership of hotels, Villas and condos have not been finalized into  Cuban Law however Foreigners will be allowed to buy and sell and to lease Cuban property.
Cuban taxes and fees the government has not published yet.

Cubans are very intelligent much more than the world gives them credi because they are all well educated and they do their homework.
Former Cuban-American real estate buyers cannot legally buy property in Cuba because of U.S law but wealthy Cubans living in Florida and Miami will be the largest potential group of buyers.
Real estate sales, golf and marinas can't work well without Americans so the Cuban Minister of Tourism stated that Cuba will start negotiations with foreign investors over 29 new Cuban golf projects from Britain, Spain, Canada including Leisure Canada's Havana & Varadero Beach developments.
