Guide for the Cape Verdean diaspora: how to invest in your country from abroad

Blog
10 April 20265 min read

More than 700,000 Cape Verdeans live outside the archipelago, mainly in Portugal, Spain, France, the United States and the Netherlands. Many of them send remittances to their families, but more and more are taking an extra step: investing in properties in their homeland.

Why invest now?

Prices are still accessible. With land from €71,190 in projects like ECOurbana Village in Santiago, the entry barrier is much lower than in Portugal, Spain or France.

The market is growing. The average appreciation of the Cape Verdean real estate market is 4-7% per year, higher than many European markets.

It's your land. Investing in Cape Verde is not just a business. It's contributing to the country's development, creating local employment and having a place to return to.

How can I buy a property in Cape Verde from abroad?

1. Choose the property remotely via StakeCV.

2. Open a bank account in Cape Verde.

3. Transfer the funds — the escudo is pegged to the euro.

4. Sign through power of attorney if you can't travel.

5. Register the property at the Conservatória dos Registos Prediais.

StakeCV works exclusively with verified agencies and developers. The service is 100% free for the buyer or investor.
