The property market in Portugal continues to show signs of strength and resilience. Even with a challenging economic context, the latest data shows that demand remains active, prices are appreciating and renting remains an attractive option for investors.
In this article, we analyse four key indicators and explain what they mean for those looking to invest, sell or rent.
Transactions over 40 thousand units
According to last quarter's figures, the number of transactions in Portugal remained above 40,000 units, a level that demonstrates constant demand from domestic and international buyers.
What does it mean?
Even with rising prices and greater selectivity in investments, the market remains active and liquid.
Sales prices up 15.81TP3Q year-on-year
The average sales value grew by a significant 15.8% in one year, the biggest increase since the second half of 2022.
What does it mean?
The continuous appreciation of property values keeps Portugal attractive to investors looking for capital gains, especially in urban and tourist areas.
Rental profitability: where to invest?
Rental market data shows significant rises in rents in various regions of the country. Cities such as Lisbon, Porto, Braga and Setúbal stand out both in terms of average value and potential profitability (gross yield).
What does it mean?
Renting remains a solid option for investors, especially those looking for consistent returns over a long-term horizon.
Buying and selling indicators by region
Analysing the indicators by municipality and region, it is possible to identify areas with the highest turnover and others with the highest appreciation per square metre.
What does it mean?
Attentive investors can find opportunities outside the traditional urban centres, where the returns can be more significant and the risk lower.
What can we expect in the coming months?
The Portuguese property market is experiencing a new cycle: more selective, but still very dynamic. The data suggests that it's still a good time to invest, especially with a well-defined strategy, adjusted to the investor's profile and with specialised monitoring.
