The recently liberalised rules on the sale of property in Mauritius to foreigners appear resonating well amongst buyers. A poll in a webinar of the Cape Town magazine Real Estate Investor held September 2020 captured this encouraging sign.
The survey showed that 40% of the webinar attendees are looking at real estate investment and permanent residency in Mauritius. The country notably topped other choices of country markets in the poll, which included the US, Portugal, the UK, Malta, Seychelles, and Cyprus.
Real Estate Investor magazine regularly holds webinars under its banner “Let’s Talk Property.” In its September run featuring the poll, the topic focused on offshore investment, residency, and citizenship. The panelists included real estate industry representatives from the US, Portugal, South Africa, and Mauritius.
The Mont Choisy Business Quarters counts amongst the new cogs of economic activity in the north of Mauritius.
EDB drumbeating continues
Significantly, the Economic Development Board of Mauritius (EDB) also continues to drumbeat on the opportunities for foreigners investing in Mauritius real estate. In September, it also held a webinar to showcase the country’s real estate investment schemes and their residency perks.
The EDB in August had a similar event that tackled the topic “Mauritius: The Ideal Hub for Doing Business.” Besides discussing the government’s residency schemes, this webinar also provided insights on other business opportunities for foreign investors. It fleshed out, for instance, other government efforts to draw investment and foreign talents in growing Mauritius’s international finance centre further.
Significantly, the EDB doesn’t only facilitate permits on the sale of a property to foreigners. It also helps them comply with government regulations and offers assistance in settling their business locally. The board likewise assists them to expand in Mauritius and in the African continent.
