If you are dreaming of owning a home on Bonaire, then your journey often begins with finding the right plots and building land on Bonaire. Moreover, it is essential to understand all the rules and options involved in land ownership on the island. Whether you want to buy a plot or sell one, the regulations and possibilities can differ significantly. <\/p>\n

On Bonaire is a clear distinction between freehold land and leasehold land.<\/p>\n
Own land means that you fully own the plot. Therefore, you can buy, sell, or build on it according to the local zoning plans. <\/p>\n<\/li>\n
Leasehold land remains the property of the public body of Bonaire. You only have the right to use the land for a set period, usually 60 years. <\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
However, it is crucial to remember that unbuilt leasehold land cannot be sold. Only when leasehold land is developed can it \u2013 with government approval \u2013 be transferred. Consequently, this is an important factor to consider before purchasing or selling a plot. <\/p>\n

The value of a plot or building lot on Bonaire depends on several factors, including location, size, zoning, and market demand. The Caribbean Netherlands Tax Office provides an overview of land prices for plots and building land on Bonaire (click here<\/span><\/a>). This information gives a good indication of the general valuation of land on the island. However, the map from early 2019 is outdated. Nowadays, it is clear that the listed land prices have at least doubled, and in some cases increased even more. Consequently, anyone considering buying or selling a plot or building lot should take current market trends into account rather than relying solely on the official 2019 figures. <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/harbourtownbonaire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Grondprijzen-Bonaire.jpg” alt=”Prices of plots and building land on Bonaire according to local tax office %22Belastingdienst CN%22″ title_text=”Prices of plots and uilding land on Bonaire” url=”https:\/\/www.belastingdienst-cn.nl\/documenten\/brochures-en-formulieren\/belastingdienst\/vgb\/grondprijzen\/grondprijzen-bonaire” url_new_window=”on” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n Whether buying or selling, a professional appraisal or valuation is essential.
