Demand for short-term rental properties.
"There has been a significant increase in demand for short-term rental properties and hospitality investments," the intermediary said, noting,''that Portugal has in recent years "become one of the most popular and sought-after tourist destinations in Europe". The increase in demand is being driven by factors such as climate, safety, cost of living and remote work opportunities.

Citing the statement, Vanessa Moreira, E&V's sales director for Portugal, notes that the country has "undergone a great upswing in real estate" and recalls that in 2022 it was recognized as the 20th highest quality of life country in the world, due not only to purchasing power but also to cost of living, climate, security and environmental quality. "These factors make buying real estate a good and safe investment, whether it is for''primary or secondary housing. Portugal is currently one of the most sought-after countries for foreign investment, which currently accounts for around 63% of all transactions in this sector," she notes.
