A Mauritius real estate purchase question that I could not find any clarification by searching the forum.
Yesterday, I visited a beautiful beachfront property in Calodyne with a real estate agent. Loved almost everything about it except that it was on leasehold land - my preference is freehold.
Are all beachfront properties have to be built on leasehold land? I understand that there is the usual beach setback that needs to be public property. But once the setback requirement has been fulfilled, this can be private land.
Relevant info for the real estate question: I am a Mauritius citizen who left a long time ago and planning to return for remote work / retirement.
How do I find out about this particular requirement to have the property on freehold land on any real estate advertisement or government web site? This would be a time saver to look at properties that meet that requirement.
Thank you.
