It turns out that people other than the “executives” of FTX and Alameda were taking advantage of the amenities of having a mansion in the Bahamas.
According to official property documents cited by Reuters on Tuesday morning, Sam Bankman-parents Fried’s were also a part of a group that “bought at least 19 properties worth nearly $121 million in the Bahamas over the past two years.”
According to the report, the majority of the real estate deals involved “luxury beachfront homes, including seven condominiums in an expensive resort community called Albany, costing almost $72 million.” A division of FTX made the official acquisition of the properties.
According to the deeds of the residences, they will be utilized as “residence for key personnel” of FTX, as per Reuters:

Sure, obvious decision now that the corporation has blown apart.
The spokesperson told Reuters: “Since before the bankruptcy proceedings, Mr. Bankman and Ms. Fried have been seeking to return the deed to the company and are awaiting further instructions.”

About 15 properties totaling $100 million were purchased by a division of FTX dubbed “FTX Property Holdings Ltd” between 2021 and 2022.
According to the news, FTX’s headquarters has been closed down. The $4.5 million tract of land is currently vacant.
