The government of these five countries has created simply heavenly conditions for those who want to settle in their territory. In order to obtain citizenship, you just need to buy real estate and live in these countries for some time.
Fifth place - Portugal
The government of sunny Portugal adopted a law in 2012, according to which everyone who buys real estate worth over 500 thousand euros in the country, receives a residence permit. This document allows you to travel freely within the Schengen countries. In Portugal, unlike many other countries, in order to maintain a residence permit, you need to stay in the country 6 months a year. After 6 years, with this document, you will receive full-fledged citizenship, with which you can go to the polls.
Fourth place - Panama
A small state in Central America gladly accepts migrants and offers them even more favorable conditions for obtaining a residence permit. It is necessary to purchase real estate in the amount of 300 thousand dollars and live in the country for 5 years. At the same time, you must not violate the laws. Panama citizenship will open up great opportunities for its holders: they will be able to freely enter the territory of more than 34 countries of the world, including the United States, as well as many countries of the European Union and the Caribbean.
Third place - Spain
To obtain a temporary residence permit in Spain, you need to purchase real estate in the amount of 160 thousand euros. It is much cheaper than in Panama or Portugal, but with the terms of obtaining citizenship in this country, the situation is somewhat worse. Only after five years of residence will you receive a permanent residence permit, and after ten - citizenship. But in Spain, in order to maintain a residence permit, you need to stay in the country only 6 months a year.
Second place - Latvia
This country has the lowest price threshold for buying real estate, after which it is possible to obtain a residence permit. For the largest cities in Latvia (Riga, Jurmala and others) it is 140 thousand euros, and for the rest - 72 thousand. Permanent citizenship can be obtained only after 10 years, but for this it is not necessary to live in Latvia, it is enough just to own real estate on its territory.
First place - Saint Kitts and Nevis
The government of this tiny Caribbean state has created the most favorable conditions for obtaining citizenship. The price threshold for buying real estate is 400 thousand dollars, and a passport can be obtained in 3-4 months. This can be done even without being on the territory of the country. The lucky holder of the citizenship of Saint Kitts and Nevis has the opportunity to live in a country with virtually untouched nature and many luxurious resorts.
