3/ Property for sale in Gabon

In a hot and steamy rainforest at the edge of the Congo Basin lies one of Africa’s richer countries - Gabon (pop. 1,433,000; GDP/cap US$5,691). Sizable revenues from oil are enjoyed here by a small population. The country is politically stable, with the singular distinction of having had only two national leaders since independence in 1961.

With investment from former colonial ruler France, Gabon was one of the first sub-Saharan African countries to exploit its crude oil reserves, which have made its 1,5-million people among the continent's richest on a per capita basis. The economy is likely to be dominated by the petroleum sector for the foreseeable future, with the focus of new exploration on deep water basins.

Gabon is generally open to foreign investors. Its main exports and sources of income are petroleum, manganese and timber. Foreign firms control all three. However, Gabon's small domestic market generally limits investor interest to export sectors. High production costs in Gabon further restrict the attractiveness of industries not tied to natural resources.

Foreigners are allowed to purchase real estate, but all real estate transactions must be supported by appropriate documents and reported to the government.
