Cape Verde offers diversity to investors

Foreign property buyers have been told of the diverse range of attractions that can be found in the Cape Verde islands.

The west African archipelago was praised by the Irish Independent for offering features such as beautiful beaches, clear blue water and year-round sunshine.

However, the country was said to offer more than physical attractions, as it also has a growing and potentially lucrative property investment market.

According to the newspaper, the consistently good weather makes property in Cape Verde a better option than places such as Bulgaria and Croatia, as it has a longer holiday season.

Therefore, there is demand for rental property over a greater period of time.

The newspaper commented: "Unlike some of the emerging markets in Eastern Europe, Cape Verde's climate virtually guarantees investors an all-year-round return."

According to Sarah Brown from NuBricks.com, accessibility improvements have led to the country attracting a record number of foreign visitors.
