What is the average property price in Mauritius?
The average asking price for residential property in Mauritius is approximately Rs 14 million (around USD 310,000). Prices vary significantly by region — the North (Grand Baie) averages Rs 24M, while the East and South typically range from Rs 4M to Rs 8M for comparable properties.
What is the average rent in Mauritius?

Can foreigners buy property in Mauritius?
Yes, foreign nationals can buy property in Mauritius through government-approved schemes including PDS (Property Development Scheme), IRS (Integrated Resort Scheme), and Smart City developments. The minimum investment is approximately USD 375,000 (around Rs 17M). Some schemes include a Mauritian residency permit. Currently 74% of active listings on PropertyFinder.mu are marked as eligible for foreign buyers.
Which region is most expensive for property in Mauritius?
The Central Plateau (Moka Smart City area) has the highest average asking prices at around Rs 28–29M, driven by premium Smart City developments. The North (Grand Baie area) follows at approximately Rs 24M average, reflecting its popularity with expats and the strength of the short-term rental market.
What is the cheapest region to buy property in Mauritius?
The South of Mauritius generally offers the most affordable property prices, with average asking prices around Rs 3–4M. The East coast (outside premium PDS estates like Beau Champ) also offers competitive values. Both regions are less commercialised and offer a more authentically Mauritian lifestyle.
Are property prices rising in Mauritius?
Mauritius property prices have appreciated steadily, particularly in expat-popular areas like Grand Baie, Tamarin, and Beau Champ. Strong demand from South African, French, and British buyers alongside limited supply in prime coastal areas continues to support prices. PDS villa prices have risen most sharply due to increasing demand from buyers seeking residency permits.
