The purchase process of Portuguese property usually takes 30 to 60 days after signing the promissory contract, although timelines can vary depending on financing and legal requirements. Immo Portugal helps coordinate the process so international buyers can complete their purchase efficiently and with confidence.
While not legally mandatory, hiring a lawyer is strongly recommended. An experienced lawyer checks property documentation, performs legal due diligence, and protects the buyer’s interests. Immo Portugal can recommend independent property lawyers who regularly assist international buyers in Portugal.
Property owners can rent their homes for long-term rentals or short-term holiday rentals. Short-term rentals require an Alojamento Local (AL) licence. Immo Portugal helps international buyers understand rental opportunities and local licensing requirements through its in-house team of holiday home rental specialists.
Many international buyers purchase property remotely by granting power of attorney to their lawyer or legal representative. Immo Portugal frequently assists clients who buy property from abroad and ensures the process remains simple and secure.
Portugal’s Silver Coast is one of the most attractive regions for international property buyers. Popular towns include Nazaré, São Martinho do Porto, Foz do Arelho, Óbidos, and Caldas da Rainha.
