Bartra Wealth Advisors have a limited number of final Irish Immigrant Investor Programme (IIP) approved investment slots available, with a restricted quota and timeframe. These slots are open to clients who have an immediate intention to apply for the IIP. Contact us now to secure your opportunity.
Bartra is delighted to have once again been recognised by the industry at CORPHUB’s Most Outstanding Enterprise Awards in Hong Kong. Following our success at last year’s ceremony where we took home four awards, this year we were named Most Trusted Immigration Investment Services by the prestigious professional platform, which seeks to highlight enterprises on the rise and celebrate their achievements in various sectors.
At Bartra, we strongly believe that what makes us successful is our business model. As the only Irish developer with a physical office in Hong Kong that offers investors direct investments into our safe, transparent, fixed asset projects, along with the opportunity to gain Irish residency, we are the leading IIP provider and the strongest player in the market.
We pride ourselves on our 100% success and renewal rate, our robust projects in qualifying Social Housing and Nursing Homes projects, and our unmatched expertise in the IIP. Compared to other European immigration programmes, our Social Housing project offers a 100% repayment guarantee and the exit strategy is simple and straightforward without any of the hassle related to liquidation or concerns around market performance. Investors in our Nursing Homes projects enjoy the same simple and straightforward exit strategy, and receive a 20% return (4% interest each year) upon exit of the Euro1 million, five-year investment on top of obtaining Irish residency. This ensures that our IIP is not only cost-free but includes an excellent return which investors can put towards a property purchase or their children’s education. The safety of the investment coupled with the excellent return makes the IIP one of the most attractive investment migration programmes in the world.

2020 has been a challenging year. It has forced people to adapt to a new reality. But at Bartra, we remain optimistic. We have seen our teams thrive on change. And our ever-present desire and drive to share ideas, to collaborate, create and innovate, and to continue making progress, is undeniable. This year has not altered our fundamental belief that great investments require three things: great locations, great people, and the right opportunities. Bartra prides itself on consistently delivering all three for clients and investors and we are grateful that we have been able to help many of our clients achieve their goals, while also being recognised by the industry for our efforts.
As another year comes to a close and we look to the year ahead, we would like to share some of our achievements and to thank everyone – clients, business partners and our staff – for contributing to our strength and success.

Close to 100 IIP applications
4 awards
A little throwback to Bartra’s highlights from the last 12 months.
Received 20 IIP applications from Hong Kong investors since the Hong Kong office has opened in August 2019.
First Hong Kong investor, who applied in August 2019, received approval from the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS).
“I am proud that the ISIF has invested in our business. This is testament to both the quality of Bartra’s projects and the expertise of the personnel putting those projects together. Our development projects support local housing requirements: co-living projects offer accommodation for young professionals; nursing homes provide critically needed care for the elderly and vulnerable; social housing caters to those on housing lists. As the investment immigration arm of Bartra Group, with offices in Hong Kong and multiple cities across Mainland China, Bartra Wealth Advisors has seen increased demand for investment in the social housing and healthcare sectors, with international investors keen to acquire these government-backed asset types. We offer investors direct access to our social housing and nursing home projects, which are good, safe investment opportunities that support the local community and are also IIP-qualifying for obtaining Irish residency.”

With regard to the IIP, we believe that interest in the programme will steadily increase as businesses and affluent individuals recognise the personal and professional advantages of maintaining a foothold in Europe. We foresee strong demand from China, Hong Kong, Vietnam, India and the UAE, as well as interest from South Africa, Canada and the UK.
As a company, we are excited to welcome 2021 and will continue to deliver our world-class services and products to investors and clients. In the spirit of the tagline of our Immigration Insight video series – Joy of Living – we’d like to take this opportunity to wish everyone a joyous, prosperous and healthy New Year!
