Views on the Bujumbura real estate :

There is a large increase in building projects and the emergence of a whole new suburb populated entirely by new houses. The new 'quartier' (French for area) also boasts of a new road, expanded electricity and water supply and a whole new feeling of novelty.

Not to be outdone, the city center is also being given a facelift. Several new buildings have come up. Now that the roads are being fixed, it is a sure thing that more are on the way.

In tandem with most urban centers in East Africa, Bujumbura is also seeing the emergence of a new type of building complex, the mall. 'Quartier' Asiatic used to be the quasi-small scale wholesale zone populated by the ubiquitous 'Qincallerie' or hardware store. It is called 'Quartier Asiatic' because of the proliferation of stores manned mainly by persons originating mainly from the orient, but who have settled for decades in Burundi. This dust blown quarter, also benefiting from the new road building initiative, is experiencing a new facelift. Usually looking at where the mall developments are taking place or will take place in the near future is a good indication as where to look for a property investment in any city, this also applies to Bujumbura.
