Located off the African coast, Cape Verde is steadily establishing itself as one of the most promising real estate investment destinations in the Atlantic. With blue skies, pristine beaches and institutional stability, the archipelago brings together all the conditions to build a secure estate.
Why invest in Cape Verde?
Cape Verde benefits from rare political stability on the African continent: a consolidated democracy, a currency pegged to the euro (CVE), and an attractive tax regime for non-residents. Tourism grows every year, driving rental demand — and therefore yields — upward. The islands of Santiago, Sal and Boa Vista concentrate the bulk of real estate investment opportunities.
The archipelago is geographically close to Europe (approximately 5 hours from major European cities), making remote management straightforward. Property prices remain accessible compared to European markets, with gross rental yields of 6 to 8% per year in tourist areas.
What type of property should you choose?
The Cape Verdean market offers a varied palette: apartments in tourist residences with integrated rental management, seafront villas for a secondary residence, or building plots for a tailor-made project. The island of Santiago attracts buyers seeking an authentic daily life and long-term residential assets. Boa Vista, with its dunes and deserted beaches, is favoured for rental investments with strong seasonal potential.
How to buy as a non-resident?
Property ownership in Cape Verde is open to foreigners without particular restrictions. The process requires a NIF (Cape Verdean tax number), a local bank account and a notary. Realty Invest AF accompanies you at every step: property selection, legal due diligence, and connection with trusted local partners.
