Income
Use achievable rent, vacancy, fees, repairs and management costs. Ask for recent comparable evidence.
FOREST CITY / SFZ & INVESTING
Understand the opportunity.
Ask the right questions.
The financial zone, a residence purchase and MM2H are three different decisions.
Three different frameworks
Keep the benefits in context.
| Framework | What it concerns | What it does not establish |
|---|---|---|
| Property ownership | A specific unit, title, price and transaction | Automatic residency or investment returns |
| MM2H SEZ/SFZ | An immigration programme with eligibility conditions | A general permission to work or operate a business |
| SFZ incentives | Qualifying activities and entities under official schemes | Zero tax for every homeowner |
The investment case
Build it from the unit upwards.
Ownership
Review title, financing, taxes and recurring costs with the appropriate professionals.
Exit
Consider resale demand, holding period and any programme-related disposal restriction.
Financial zone
An economic direction, with conditions.
The SFZ was announced in August 2023. The 2024 incentive package included a Single Family Office scheme, coordinated by the Securities Commission, for qualifying investment vehicles. Its concessionary treatment depends on scheme requirements.
MIDA administers specified incentives for eligible activities. Confirm geographic coverage and the applicable scheme directly. A marketing headline cannot establish a buyer’s tax position.
