About us

Overseas Cabo Verde is a real estate consulting and management company based on Sal Island, created to deliver a benchmark service in Cape Verde — built on non-negotiable pillars: trust, transparency, proximity, and deep knowledge of the local market.

The brand was founded from the experience and vision of Idilza Santos, a property owner and manager with a consolidated track record in the sector. Her work embodies what truly differentiates a solid real estate operation: on-the-ground presence, procedural rigor, and personalized guidance focused on well-structured decisions and consistent results.

At Overseas, we operate in property acquisition, sales, and investment with a clear approach: we do not simply work with properties — we work with asset decisions. Every transaction is conducted with criteria, method, and responsibility, ensuring a secure, organized, and predictable experience from start to finish.

Our in-depth understanding of the Cape Verdean market dynamics, combined with knowledge of the legal and tax framework, allows us to identify opportunities with real potential and sustainable positioning, minimizing risk and maximizing confidence throughout the process. We believe that a well-made decision always begins with objective information, professional analysis, and transparent guidance — without improvisation, noise, or surprises.

We value long-term relationships. Our team operates with high standards, grounded in ethics, integrity, and operational excellence. For us, credibility is not declared — it is built through consistency, delivery, and responsibility in every detail.

More than intermediating transactions, we act as a full-service strategic partner. From the first conversation to the final stage, clients have clarity about what is happening, what remains to be done, and what the next steps are — with specialized support and continuous communication.

A structure designed for international investors.

Overseas Cabo Verde positions itself as a strategic partner for international investors seeking solid, secure, and profitable opportunities in the Cape Verdean real estate market.

We operate with an integrated, results-oriented approach, offering a complete service that covers all phases of investment — from opportunity identification and analysis to acquisition, management, and potential exit. Our turnkey model was developed to provide peace of mind to foreign investors, ensuring operational efficiency, transparency at every stage, and full legal and tax compliance.

We rely on a strong network of local and international partners — including legal, tax, and financial specialists, as well as professionals in property management, architecture, and interior design. This structure allows us to mitigate risks with rigor, optimize returns, and elevate the execution standard of each transaction, maintaining a focus on sustainability and long-term value.

We support our clients with data-driven market analysis, feasibility studies, risk assessment, and investment strategies tailored to different profiles and objectives. We act as experienced negotiators, conducting secure and well-structured transactions always aligned with the investor’s interests.

At Overseas Real Estate, the goal is not merely to close deals — it is to build trust, protect decisions, and transform opportunities into well-executed investments.
