Why Invest in Real Estate in Mauritius in 2024

The real estate market in Mauritius in 2024 is attracting increasing interest from local and international investors. Known for its pristine beaches, multicultural society and growing economy, Mauritius is a unique opportunity for real estate investment. However, the question remains: is it still worthwhile to invest in Mauritian real estate in the second half of 2024?

1 A market resilient to global uncertainty

  • Despite the overall economic uncertainties, Mauritius remains a stable housing market.
  • This resilience is based on its strategic position, strong governance and attractive quality of life.
  • Mauritius is not only a tropical paradise; it is also a business and financial centre, with a growing expat community that contributes to a constant demand for quality goods.

2 Government incentives for investors

  • The Government of Mauritius supports real estate investment with several incentives.
  • The Property Development Scheme (PDS) and Integrated Resort Scheme (IRS) allow foreigners to acquire properties with the additional benefit of a residence permit for investments over $375,000.
  • The government has also simplified the purchase process, making Mauritius even more attractive to investors.

3 High rental yields and growing demand

  • Mauritius offers attractive rental returns, particularly in the areas of Flic en Flac, Tamarin and Grand Bay.
  • The island, increasingly sought-after as a luxury destination and place to live for expatriates, is seeing its demand for seasonal rentals and long-term leases grow, providing investors with regular and stable rental income.

4 The impact of tourism on real estate

  • The Mauritian tourism industry, which is recovering strongly after the pandemic, has a positive effect on the real estate market.
  • The influx of tourists increases demand for holiday rentals, leading to higher property values.
  • This trend is expected to continue in the second half of 2024, creating a good time to invest in tourism goods.

5 Sustainable growth in key areas

  • The west coast of Mauritius, with areas like Tamarin and Flic en Flac, shows stable real estate growth.
  • These areas, popular with locals and expats for their beautiful landscapes and accessibility, offer a great investment opportunity with a lasting appreciation of values.

6 Diversification and long-term security

  • Investing in Mauritian real estate offers an opportunity for diversification.
  • In a volatile financial market environment, real estate is a more stable tangible asset.
  • With a strong economy and protective legal framework, Mauritius provides long-term security for investors.

 

An investment worth it

As we approach the second half of 2024, Mauritius remains a prime destination for real estate investment. Government incentives, high rental yields, growth in strategic areas and the positive impact of tourism are all elements that enhance the island’s attractiveness. For investors looking to diversify their portfolio and achieve sustainable returns, Mauritius offers a unique opportunity. Whether it is for luxury villas, beachfront apartments or commercial properties, investing in Mauritian real estate in 2024 can offer significant returns in the years to come.
