Questions about buying in Portugal? That's no surprise, buying a property is a big deal and is not something that you do every day. Luckily we do.
Are you getting sick and tired of dreary grey skies and gloomy grey days? Do you want to swap your 9-5 for wall to wall sunshine? Then join the thousands thinking about moving to sunnier shores.
When you decide to sell your property, you need an agent you can trust. At Portugal Property Hub we pride ourselves in delivering a reliable and personal service, tailored to achieving the highest possible price for your property within the timescale best suited to you.
Many people are now looking at Portugal as a way to enjoy living and working within the Schengen area. With unimpeded travel, minimal days needed to stay in Portugal or at the other extreme 365 days living here the Golden Visa offers non EU citizens a stress free way to gain residency.
There’s a rainbow of colours out there, is there any point in painting your property before selling? And if you do decide to take brush to wall is there a colour that will help sell your property faster?
Gone are the dark days that followed the crash of 2008, Portugal is now riding high in the world of real estate. Confidence is back, investors are investing and buyers are certainly buying. Take a peek at our round up of what's been going on over the past few weeks in this fantastic country.
Buying a property is one of the most exciting, exhilarating and important processes that you may go through. At Portugal Property Hub we are here to make sure that this process is perfect in every way - financially, practically and emotionally. Check out our 6 steps of becoming a home owner in the Algarve.
When you’re trying to buy a property abroad, there’s a lot to think about. Raising the cash, getting a mortgage, finding an agent you trust and of course finding a property that you like in your price bracket and location. This may take a few trips back and forth - or you may find THE one on your first visit to the country.
Once you’ve found and viewed the property and made an offer, then there is the wait to see if it will be accepted.
Potential stress-fest?
It doesn’t have to be. If you and your agent have a clear strategy you give yourself every chance of success (and a good night’s sleep)!
Kerb appeal is the term used to describe the attractiveness of your home and the first impressions potential buyers will have. When you were looking for your dream home in the sun, how many properties did you discard purely by looking at the photos online, or simply because you didn’t like the look of the house from the outside?
Planning for your post virus purchase was not a title I thought I would have to write about, but here it is! When normal life resumes, and it will :) you’ll want to be in the position to be ready to go to purchase your home in the sun. Why not use this time to think about all the do’s and don’ts about purchasing a property abroad?
How are we all doing now we are into what feels like day 1,455 of lockdown?!A question which I have been asking myself recently is what will the future look like post Covid-19. I hadn’t really considered if this would change the evolution of property, until now...
Hi I'm Ruth - I set up Portugal Property Hub 8 months ago, to lead and develop a team of experts in the property field.
In our first quarter of 2020 we had many positive results. It was very successful and we helped many clients find their dream home in the sun. The business was growing and all the team were hitting their targets and achieving their goals.Then Covid-19 hit.
In relation to the Covid-19 pandemic Portugal has reacted incredibly well. The Algarve has been one of the areas of the country where there have been hardly any cases and the country as a whole has not, thankfully, seen anywhere near the numbers of deaths experienced by our Iberian neighbour and other European countries.
Being here in the Algarve, living and working in Portugal, normality is certainly on its way. Over the past few weeks shops, hairdressers, businesses and restaurants have started to open their doors. Soon, almost all commercial entities will be up and running - albeit with certain distancing restrictions still in play - so it seems obvious that the next door to open is that to tourists.
