. . . . For resident visa you will need to buy a property in Fiji valued at F$100,000.00 or have F$100,000.00 in your bank account in Fiji.. . .

As a retiree (AKA 'assured income' permit) I did not have to buy property or have F$100,000 in a Fiji bank account to obtain my Fiji residency permit.  I simply had to show immigration that I had enough assets in U.S. accounts that I would not likely become a burden.  And the police and medical reports, as Bill mentioned. 

However, for renewal, I had to show that I brought an average of F$30,000 per year into Fiji during each of the past 3 years from foreign accounts.

I recommend NOT buying a property until you have lived in Fiji for at least 6 months.  You'll find better deals and understand more about what you want after traveling within Fiji and talking with other expats.  Some places, such as the Nadi area and Coral Coast, are generally over-priced and rely largely on naive newcomers for sales.

Cosa vuoi che ti dica cara Francesca

Vorrei andare a vivere alle Fiji ma non credo posso farlo perche' non ho ancora 45 anni.

Tu che fai di bello in Mauritius?

It was just a brief reply to Francesca who seems to be from Italy, nothing helpful to the main issue, sorry.
