Property Investor information for: Fiji
Fiji is an exotic, beautiful and progressive group of 322 islands located in the hub of the south pacific with a total land area of 18,333 sq km. A former British colony, Fiji has been independent since 1970 and has a multi-racial population of some 790,000
Fiji is blessed with a tropical climate, beautiful beaches, breathtaking coral reefs, attractive flora, a unique blend of cultures and a friendly hospitable people - the smiling face of Fiji really is a tourist paradise. English is the official language and Fijian and Hindi are also widely spoken.
Tourism is now the most significant industry with over 350,000 visitors per year. Many overseas visitors are acquiring freehold lots to build homes or have as an investment. For the entire South Pacific there is a surprising scarcity of land available for purchase by citizens of other countries. The great majority of land is held in perpetual trust for the Fijian people and only 9% has freehold title that can be bought and resold. Freehold land is, indeed, a precious commodity.
