Cape banks on more expansion

Ponta Bicuda Resort in the Santiago Island. Great for Vacation, Perfect to Live.
"Cape Verde has been one of the names on the lips of many a property investor in recent times as the African archipelago has exploded into the consciousness of developers, investors and, most importantly, of tourists. Being the closest tropical island to Britain geographically helps, not least as there is no time difference. But the situation has only played itself out to any great advantage in the last couple of years as direct flights have been established between the UK and the former Portuguese colony.

These things feed off each other, so perhaps it is no surprise that as tourist numbers rise, so in turn does the capacity to accommodate them, both in terms of rooms to stay in and, before that, airports to land at. One of the major features of the economic growth of Cape Verde - substantially dependent on tourism - has been the large-scale investment in infrastructure."

Better capital gains on properties abroad

Discover Ponta Bicuda and make a great investment. Enjoy the future!
"The current credit crunch is having some surprising effects, not least on the property market. In the UK, building societies are reporting a slowing of sales and a decrease in property values with the market bracing itself for a further decline under the threat of more rises in the mortgage rate. However, this is not worldwide. There are many countries that have reported no defining change to property values and in some cases homes are rising at a remarkable rate, making them excellent for investment.

Take for instance, Cape Verde, a cluster of Caribbean style islands off the West coast of Africa and within a 5 hour flight time from the UK. "

The slopes and platforms that will house the villas for Coladera and Tedju are now shaped, giving the visitors a clear perspective of the real views of the villas.
Cor di Mar still requires a long excavation. No one ever said that moving half a million square meters of dirt and rock would be an easy task! I am really proud to be part of it....

"The people of Cape Verde used to say that to leave the islands is only to begin dreaming about your return. At least, that's how the local tourist brochures like to catchphrase the newly emerging 'European Caribbean'.
