    Hello, good evening! Thank you for your good advice. I have a question: In which part of the city have you bought your house? (I don't need the actual address. You can only mention the name of the place.) How can I get your help, if I buy a house? Actually, I want to buy a house with a very big garden. Because my mum loves gardening. Have fun with your family. Best regards from Kazi. (Germany)

    As a Portuguese, ill add a mistakes you might make: 1. Focus on Lisbon/algarve. Look, this is a small country, and what i dont think is mentioned is that we actually have very good infrastructure (roads). Meaning its easy to get around, so buy a house outside of Lisbon/algarve. They are much much cheaper.

    Some great tips here. We rented in different places before we finally bought. An important tip our Portuguese Algarve lettings agent gave us was: don't buy too remote. He told us he'd witnessed couple after couple being swayed by the large amount of land you get for your money in remote areas and then regretting it when they realised there were no facilities nearby. We bought just over a mile from the nearest town/beach, which suits us perfectly.

    Here’s my experience of real estate shopping in Portugal. I moved here 15 months ago and for the first year I lived in the north south and central each trimester. I then settled into Lisbon with a three-year lease that I can extricated myself from without cost after 18 months. I’m about six months into it. I’ve started to definitely Determine where I would want to buy a residence as a primary property; I’m also looking at investment/2nd home properties in the Algarve. Be aware if the property is being sold as a touristic license or as in more flexible residence. Also beware of great opportunities to invest in a building that is still being built because one never knows whether it’s going to be completed or not. My feeling is if you can’t move into it or rent it within 90 days of buying it you shouldn’t buy it. You definitely have to work with a number of different agents. You definitely need a lawyer. But even with those things things can happen. I have not found that my all cash offers have done much for me in either the Algarve or Lisbon, and I’ve consistently come in with a lower offers than what they were selling for, and every seller has stubbornly held onto the original sale price and then I walked away from them. I’ve been looking for over a year and have not found a place yet. I was ready to make an offer on a couple of places, and with one as soon as I made the offer they said that a good friend of theirs got right of first refusal and then they took it off the market. Another guy was Perhaps willing to lower the price, but he wanted to do a shady transaction such that the sale price would be €100,000 lower than I actually paid for it which is illegal for both of us to do because it’s tax fraud. So I walked away from that one. I also made an offer on a vacation/investment property in Costa Del Sol in Spain and dealt with a lawyer that I’m probably going to refer to their ethics committee possibly will be in a lawsuit with who in my mind was really working more for the seller than for me even though he was my lawyer; a very difficult process and it also involved withholding information from me regarding the history of the unit. So buyer beware. I find these people play it fast and loose and they aren’t going to disclose things unless you specifically ask and even then. Get an inspector; that’s how I discovered things about the one property. they’ll tell you that Portuguese people don’t use inspectors, and just tell them that you do. There’s also two current situations going on that I think will really influence property values in the future. One is the whole country is going through a multi year drought, but particularly the Algarve is in a pretty dire state because they did not install the desalination plant as Spain has done and without any rain they won’t have any water a year’s time. And you know what that will do the property values. Secondly, certain markets are certainly overheated including Lisbon and the Algarve. We all know the whole world is going through a recession , there’s inflation, interest rates are going up and all of those things are going to affect how many houses get sold and for how much. I’m certain that prices are going to go down relatively soon and will continue a downward trend for quite some time. As they say, don’t buy any primary residence unless you know you’re going to live there at least seven years. And and in this kind of market, if you buy high you’re gonna have to sit on that thing for a long time before you can sell it even for what you bought it for. I know. I was in that situation in Sacramento and ended up having to rent the house because I couldn’t sell it even for what I bought it for having put $100,000 into it to improve it. Buyer beware.

    Amazing job guys. I have just sold my first house in the south of Portugal (Loulé) and currently renting to look for my second here to renovate. In the meantime I have used some of the money from the first sale to put into the stock market and I am so glad I did. I can definitely vouch for the illegal structures - I would say 50% of the houses I have viewed in the last 4 months have had illegal buildings/extensions/floors. And many owners haven't been pro active in getting the paperwork sorted prior to listing it with an estate agent. The estate agents are not supposed to list properties without the correct paperwork but it happens all the time! Be sure to check this, and don't be fooled by an estate agent that brushes these legalities under the carpet. Getting a good lawyer is money saved in the long run! Keep the updates coming :)

    Excellent advice! I’ve learned a lot from your videos. I also realized the problem of no MLS system in Portugal after seeing multiple properties with multiple realtors the last time I was there. Though it makes more work for a buyer, I think it must help to keep prices lower. I remember all the great deals I used to get via print classified ads in local newspapers before eBay. Out of sight, out of competition! Best wishes!

    Maybe with all the influx of new residents you could go back to earn a living there. The economy grows when new residents come in. In the US, Miami was a sleepy seasonal city with little economic activity before the Castro dictatorship in Cuba forced a migration of Cuban entrepreneurs to grow the economic activity that turned Miami into the metropolis it became after 1960. Maybe so many expats will make Portugal great again!

    Obviously, negotiating the price depends on how 'hot' the place is you're buying, some houses in Lisbon get overbid due to the scarcity in some top locations. And cash only makes sense to the seller if people really want to get rid of the house or if a part of the sum can be paid 'on the side', as the seller needs to pay tax over the received sum. Other than that, 'Casa Pronta' is a government 'helpdesk' that deals with most of the paperwork/taxes etc, (reducing the cost and burden to get these services separately) and I found buying a house in Portugal relatively simple. But indeed, if you want to change your house in any way, be careful. THIS can be a daunting process! Great video! :-)

    My wife is from along the coast just south of the City of Aveiro in Portugal. With much of her family still there, we've spent large blocks of time there since my first trip there in 1997. I've been a real estate broker, appraiser, and analyst in the U.S. since 1971 and have dealt with various property owners in Portugal over the years, as well. I was very impressed with the accuracy of the information you provided in this video and I strongly suggest it's a "must see" for anyone thinking about buying real estate in Portugal. Thanks and as a new subscriber to your channel, I look forward to viewing more of your videos. 👍
