Reality TV – Roatan on the radar screen

Larry SchlesserIsland News

It seems the Bay Islands are popping up again on the radar screens in various reality TV shows like ‘House Hunters International’ and ‘Beach Front Bargain’ with a new one called ‘Half Priced Paradise’ that is also searching around for clients and Agents to film.

From what I have heard ‘Beach Front Bargains’ just left our sister island Utila and ‘House Hunters International’ will be here for a month shooting four shows. The real estate companies themselves get little exposure for doing this in that the guidelines for the show are very struct, (no shirts with logos, no advertising , visits to an office exclude names etc), but overall it is for the most part good educational and informational viewing material for the millions of viewers and people who are looking for a paradise location for vacation property investment or retirement.  As mentioned in previous posts in our newsletters subscriptions, the ‘real estate bubble’ that popped has created quite the buyer’s market here in the Bay Islands.
