The rules of the Bahamas would apply. Contact their Embassy.

NOTE: This communication is not intended as and should not be interpreted as legal advice. Rather, it is intended solely as a general discussion of legal principles. You should not rely on or take action based on this communication without first presenting ALL relevant details to a competent attorney in your jurisdiction and then receiving the attorney's individualized advice for you. By reading the "Response" to your question or comment, you agree that the opinion expressed is not intended to, nor does it, create any attorney-client relationship, nor does it constitute legal advice to any person reviewing such information, nor will it be considered an attorney-client privileged communication. If you do not agree, then stop right here, and do not read any further.

This would be governed by the laws of the Bahamas. I am sure that there must be some way to work around the issues as I know that many Florida realtors will go to other countries and solicit clients. You would need to consult a local attorney who can review the applicable laws and then provide you with the findings.
