Golden Visa Portugal Real Estate – 500k option

Requirements & recommended real estate types

You have to invest a total € 500.000,-  in Portugal regardless where and how many properties you buy.

There are a few recommended options in the € 500.000,-  range:

• If you are interested in an optimal return of investment than buy 2 apartments for tourist renting;
• If you would like to have a good return of investment and maybe would like to move to Portugal in the future than buy a larger apartment or a bigger house at the silver coast or the Algarve and rent it to tourists;
• You can also buy land (only) in the € 500.000,- option. 

Evaluation 

The € 500.000,- option is the safest in terms of the Golden Visa approval and also the option with the best return of investment perspective. Because of the high growth rates and the restrictions on touristic rentals in Lisbon, the area along the coast more south are currently the better choice to invest. Touristic properties can always be rented with good returns during them summer and in the winter months the demand has gone up massively for mid term rentals too. Off course renting out on a long term base is also a safe option.
