About us

We are Karko Real Estate; two dynamic individuals with passion for everything real estate. A marketing creative combined with an experienced appraiser. Both born & raised on the island, familiar with all the ins and outs the island breathes.

Founded in 2020 to add a local & personal touch to the real estate market on Bonaire. Our goal is to assist you in finding & selling your home while providing the friendliest service we have always been known for giving on the island. As locals we have an extended network on the island to fulfill all your real estate needs. There’s always that one high-school friend or family working at related organizations whom we always have on speed-dial.

At Karko Real Estate innovation and flexibility is key, the same job gets done but with a set of young fresh eyes. We match your calendar by letting you choose your time and make your own appointment. As young millennials sometimes we’ll also respond to your email at 9:42pm and maybe also on a Sunday (after the beach of course).

With in-house experience of building materials, construction, value as well as knowledge of the island’s (non) residential areas we go above and beyond to help you find your dream home or investment project so you can retire early (& enjoy the beach). From empty lots to fixer-uppers, newly developed homes, old-Bonairean & modern homes.

Together with our team we are not only focussed on buying & selling but also on investing in & developing residential projects. We guide projects from brainstorming sessions to planification, design, permits, contractors, up till realization. Shortly, from A to Z.

As locals on a multi-cultural island we dominate 4 languages; Papiamentu (our native language), Dutch, English and Spanish. Which is a plus when representing our clients; both sellers and buyers. We will translate the property into your language. When selling we are able to guide you through the whole selling-process, not only in your language, but in a language you understand.

Let us help you find, develop or sell your shell!
