2008-06-05 02:00:00 Cape Verde is becoming more and more popular with second home buyers from overseas, analysts have stated. According to property experts NuBricks.com, the west African nation has become an "overseas property hotspot" in recent years. The website said this is partially due to efforts to boost tourism in the country, as this has created a variety of investment opportunities in different areas. However, it said Cape Verde's regulatory system has also helped make it attractive to foreign buyers.

He added that this level of protection is missing in many other developing nations across the world. According to the Organisation of Economic Cooperation and Development, Cape Verde's economy grew by 6.6 per cent last year. Figures cited by MacauHub show that...
