Puerto Rico is outside our home turf, so take this as general framing and lean on a good local agent and attorney on the island. A few things we'd weigh: - The power grid. Reliability has been an ongoing problem, and island-wide outages have left residents without power unless they had their own generation. If we were buying there, energy independence would sit near the top of the list: solar with battery storage, or a reliable generator, so a grid failure never becomes a livability crisis. - Financing. Puerto Rico uses the same U.S. mortgage system, so the loan programs will look familiar. There are local differences worth confirming with a lender licensed there. - Lifestyle. For most mainlanders a move there is a genuine relocation. If you're English-only, the language transition is real, and worth being honest with yourself about. - The tax incentives. The draw for many business owners and remote workers, alongside the retiree pull of beaches, warm weather, and a lower cost of living than many mainland markets. Those incentives come with residency and qualification rules, so verify the current requirements with a tax professional before you count on them.
