Standing proud, Cape Verde
Colonised by Portugal in the 15th Century, Cape Verde gained it’s independence in 1970 and has never looked back, and is now taking it’s place on the world property investment and holiday stage, and in particular Fractional Ownership. Fractional ownership is the new big thing! Many homebuyers are finding that they do not have as much disposable income they used to have, but are still wanting to buy a property and Fractional ownership allows them to do this.
The 10 islands all have their own character and charm and all that is being coupled with modern developments with the emphasis on comfort and style. The Atlantic Property Group have been spreading the word about Fractional ownership in Cape Verde, just over an hour up the African coast.
In the Caribbean, the hot dry weather can lead to problems like tropical storms, Cape Verde is spared that with just 10 days a year of rain. There used to be a problem with a lack of water but now new desalination plants are helping to recycle water from the sea. This is just one way that the new input of money from overseas investment can help to improve the lives of the friendly music loving people of the islands.
In the past the islands have relied on fishing and agriculture to sustain the economy but now they will benefit from the fruits of their temperate climate as it attracts visitors.
Not many people get a chance to invest in a new destination just before it is embraced by the wider public but in Cape Verde, the time to invest is now.
