Cape Verde Real Estate Market Overview
Strong Demand on Sal
Sal Island is the epicentre of Cape Verde's property boom, driven by:
Expanding tourism sector (Santa Maria is a year-round tourist hotspot).
Political and economic stability, with Cape Verde ranked among Africa's most secure investment destinations.
Favourable legal framework for foreign buyers, modelled on Portuguese property law, providing clear rights and ownership protections.
Investment & Rental Potential
Holiday Rental Market
Santa Maria's popularity with international tourists fuels a buoyant holiday rental market:
Short-term lets: 3 bedroom villas can achieve €100-€150 per night depending on season, quality, and location.
Occupancy rates: average 65%-75% annually, with peak seasons around Christmas, New Year, and summer months.
For Villa Coqueiro, its proximity to the beach and town makes it especially desirable for short-term vacation rentals.
Gross Yields
Yields in Sal range between 9%-16%, making it one of the most profitable markets in Africa.
With steady tourism and limited supply of high-quality villas, independent homes like Villa Coqueiro are primed for strong rental performance.
Capital Growth
Sal's infrastructure investments, rising tourism numbers, and growing international awareness are pushing property values upward. Entering the market now means securing property before prices catch up with comparable European holiday islands.
Residency & Legal Benefits
Foreign ownership is fully permitted; buyers enjoy the same rights as locals.
Purchases over €80,000-€120,000 may qualify the buyer and dependents for permanent residency (Green Card). Please seek legal advice to confirm.
Legal framework based on Portuguese civil law ensures transparent conveyancing and reliable land registry systems.
Villa Coqueiro comfortably exceeds the thresholds, positioning buyers for both lifestyle benefits and potential residency options.
