Buying property in Portugal is not complicated and can be very straightforward provided the property is all sorted legally. There is good protection both for the buyer and for the seller. But it is essential that you have the correct expert support and advice to take you through the process. There are many aspects that need to be fully checked before making the purchase.
Extra Costs
When purchasing property there are extra costs you will need to take into account. You should allow 3-10% on top of the purchase price to cover things like:
- Purchase Tax (IMT) which is based on a sliding scale from 0% to 6.5% of the declared value.
Notary charges
Stamp Duty
Legal charges usually around 700-1,000 euros. Always find out how much your lawyer will
charge before you instruct them to do any work.
