Most buyers in Sint Maarten look at one condo or one villa. Some want a property that is built to earn: several units under one title, an operating apartment building, or commercial space to let. Andreu Realty lists ten of them today, from $416,000 to $3,800,000. This overview uses our listings as of 30 September 2026; the rental figures are the gross estimates shown on each listing.

A home with rental units: $495,000 to $1,990,000

The entry point is a property where you live in one part and rent the rest. A house in Saunders with two independent one-bedroom apartments is $495,000: the main house has two bedrooms and two bathrooms, and each apartment has its own kitchen, bathroom and terrace. The listing estimate is $37,000 to $48,000 a year. In Cupecoy, a ground-floor residence at Cupecoy Beach Club that divides into an independent studio and an independent one-bedroom is $625,000, with a $933 monthly fee and an estimate of $55,000 to $75,000.

Higher up, an ocean-view villa in Point Blanche at $1,080,000 combines a three-bedroom main residence, an adjoining studio and a separate one-bedroom apartment with its own entrance and pool, about 400 m² in all, with an estimate of $115,000 to $150,000. In Guana Bay, a newly built villa with two fully independent apartments on a 3,780 m² freehold lot is $1,990,000. It runs off-grid, which sharply reduces utility costs, and is estimated at $150,000 to $195,000.

Small apartment buildings: $950,000 to $1,450,000

A three-apartment complex in Almond Grove is $950,000: three independent units with eight bedrooms and about 410 m² in a gated community, with an annual fee of about $500. The listing puts long-term rent at about $7,000 a month. On the beach in Simpson Bay, a two-story building with two two-bedroom apartments and one three-bedroom is $1,300,000 with direct beach access, estimated at $155,000 to $200,000 a year.

In Beacon Hill, a nine-unit apartment complex is $1,450,000. It is two buildings on 634 m² of freehold land with runway views of Princess Juliana International Airport, an operating history and a 9.2 guest rating on Booking.com. The estimate is $205,000 to $265,000.

A full building: Le Diamant Blanc

Le Diamant Blanc in Oyster Pond is a renovated four-level building with 11 furnished units: four studios, two one-bedrooms, four two-bedrooms and a penthouse, with a pool and sun deck. It is $3,800,000 and estimated at $340,000 to $440,000 a year. It suits a buyer who wants to run a boutique hotel or a managed rental building.

Commercial space in Cay Hill

Belair Plaza is a new mixed-use development in Cay Hill, near Philipsburg. A ground-floor retail unit of about 115 m² is $465,000 with a $467 monthly fee, and a second-level office of about 129 m² with a private balcony is $416,000 with a $395 fee. Both are delivered as a shell for the owner or tenant to fit out. The listing estimates are $30,000 to $38,000 and $26,000 to $34,000 a year.

What to check before you buy an income property

  • Actual income, not estimates. Ask for rental statements or booking records for at least the last full year, and for the expenses that go with them.

  • Occupancy today. Some properties are sold vacant, others with tenants or bookings in place. Ask what transfers with the sale.

  • Land title. Confirm whether the land is freehold or long lease. The notary checks title and liens before closing.

  • Utilities. Ask how each unit is metered and for a year of electricity and water bills.

  • Licences. If the property operates as a short-term rental or a guest house, ask which licences it holds and whether they transfer to a new owner.

  • Insurance and storm protection. Get a quote for the whole building before you make an offer.

  • Closing costs. On the Dutch side the buyer pays a 4% transfer tax, and total closing costs commonly come to about 5.5%.

  • Tax. Rental income is taxable. Speak to a local tax adviser about how you will hold the property.
