We would like to announce that we will be offering free advertising from the end of June 2008 and we want you to have your say.

The site provides a property listing services for new homes for sale worldwide. It’s always been based on advertising new build property at a cost of £1/day. We want to make a change due to the feedback we have received from property developers and property investors over the past 12 months.

New Advertising Services

Our new advertising services will be split into two distinct sections as follows:

• Private Sellers – Individuals with one or more new homes for sale
• Trade Sellers – Property developers and agents with multiple developments for sale

Free Advertising for Private Sellers

We want to offer the most cost effective advertising possible for our private sellers and so we came up with free listings. The free listing service will not be offered on a trial basis, but will be a fully functioning advertising service.

What do you think?

Private sellers will be able to buy enhanced advertising services, which will boost their prominence and attract more enquiries and sales. This is where we really would like your help. How do you think we should charge for this? Should we charge a flat monthly fee of say £30, or should we stick with the £1/day per property?

Property Developers

If you are a property developer or agent, the new service will enable you to advertise developments on a month by month basis without the need to list individual properties. So if you just want to advertise your developments, this is the service you shall have. You will be able to list properties also, but you won’t have to.

What do you think we should do?

One of the main requirements that people looking to invest in property abroad have at the top of their list is luxury, with another being a favourable climate. If you are looking for both in the one package then you should consider property investment in Cape Verde.

All About Cape Verde

Cape Verde is a prime place for property investment at the moment because it is effectively a tropical paradise. Located in the Atlantic Ocean, the climate is warm and dry all year round on each of the nine islands in the archipelago. The lifestyle on the islands is fitting of the tropical nature of the weather as well. You can enjoy fun in the sun with very little stress in the lap of luxury! If it sounds good so far, it is going to get better in just a few moments.

Real estate investment in Cape Verde is perfect no matter what you plan to do in the future. Whether you are looking for a holiday home, a property to invest in and then rent out or a permanent home to move into then you may just find everything that you are looking for right here. Cape Verde is being compared to the Caribbean islands in terms of the real estate development that occurred on those islands in the last decade or so, but the bonus is that it is closer to the UK than the Caribbean and thus easy to get to. The tropical climate comes from the fact that it is just 300 miles of the African coast, and luckily enough for property investors so do the prices!

Welcome To Porto Sal

If you need any proof that you can live in luxury for an unreasonably low price then look no further than the Vila Verde Resort II in Porto Sal, Sal Island. A studio would cost from just £62,845 in this luxury resort, which is amazing given that real estate investment in such an idyllic setting is usually six figures at the very least. If you are looking for homes for sale with realistic real estate investment then property prices here are beginning to soar so it could indeed be the opportunity that you are looking for!

If a studio does not appeal to you then you could choose an apartment, townhouse or villa instead. Depending on which kind of home you choose, you could also have up to four bedrooms and up to four bathrooms at your disposal. As you can see, there are homes for sale in the resort that cater for all of your wants and needs.

There is a whole host of other facilities in the Vila Verde Resort II as well, including the following:

• Excellent transport links, including a clear and leisurely drive to the airport that takes just 5mins
• 2km of beautiful sandy beaches right outside your door
• Direct access to the city centre, which is home to all the shops you will ever need
• Private terraces with an amazing view over the bay

And you can have all of this for a little under £70,000. Cape Verde is a haven for real estate investment at the moment, so make the most of it while you can!
