Boa Vista Property Guide: What Buyers Need to Know in 2026

Editorial checklist revised 5 October 2026. No current tax rate, lender offer, residence eligibility or investment return is certified by this page.

Boa Vista listings in the index are advertisements, not verified investment opportunities. This guide focuses on checks for a specific property rather than predictions about the island’s growth.

Check the location and the evidence

• Confirm the advertised location. The official tourism site places Santa Mónica in the southwest and the Viana desert in the north/west; they should not be described together as a southeast property zone.
• Compare dated asking-price records for similar properties. We do not establish a fixed discount relative to Sal or rank Boa Vista’s resale liquidity.
• Check current flights for your dates and inspect access, utilities, services and nearby construction at the intended location.
• For rental investment, obtain evidenced occupancy and operating costs for the actual unit or comparable units. We do not publish a Sal-versus-Boa Vista seasonal occupancy comparison.
• For unfinished property, confirm land rights, permissions, progress, funding and payment protections with independent advisers.
