New Real Estate in Sousse 2026: Developments, Prices & Advantages
Sousse, Tunisia's third city and Sahel capital, attracts both Tunisians seeking a seaside secondary home and diaspora investors targeting the tourist rental market. New-build supply is abundant, at prices still below the capital. Here's what you need to know to buy new in Sousse in 2026.
Why Buy New in Sousse?
Strong tourist market. Sousse is a major international tourist destination. Well-located new apartments — Kantaoui, Sahloul, Khezama — rent easily in high season (June–September) with attractive seasonal yields.

Key Risks in Sousse
- Saturation in some zones: Port El Kantaoui has significant supply — check vacancy rates before buying.
- Short season: high tourist season is June–September. Calculate yield on a full annual basis.
