Looking to buy real estate in the Algarve? Whether you’re dreaming of a coastal villa, a countryside retreat, or a profitable investment, Immo Lusitania is your trusted partner for navigating the Portuguese property market. Here’s why working with us makes all the difference—and how we help you secure your dream home in Portugal 🇵🇹.

🧭 Starting Your Property Journey in Portugal

The first step is choosing Portugal—and more specifically, the Algarve—as your ideal destination. With its 300+ days of sunshine, relaxed lifestyle, golden beaches, and strong property market, it’s no wonder so many retirees, remote workers, and investors are making the move.

Once you’ve set your sights on the Algarve, the journey begins with research—and that’s where our expertise comes in. Whether you know Portugal well or are new to the country, Immo Lusitania helps you make informed choices:

🏠 We help you:

• Identify top areas in the Algarve based on lifestyle, budget, and investment goals
• Explore different property types: villas, townhouses, apartments, farms, and more
• Understand the property buying process in Portugal from A to Z
• Learn about financing and mortgage options for foreigners
• Set realistic budget and search parameters to target the right opportunities

🤝 Building a Relationship with a Trusted Partner

We are not a typical real estate agency. At Immo Lusitania, we act as your independent buyer’s agent, giving you access to over 1,000 vetted listings from across Portugal through a single point of contact. This means:

• No confusion from dealing with dozens of agents
• A curated experience focused on your needs
• Full support with mortgages, legal advice, taxation (including NHR), architecture, renovation, currency exchange, and more

We also specialize in off-market listings that never appear online and provide exclusive access to renovation-ready properties in regions like the Algarve and Alentejo.

🔎 Searching for Property in Portugal

Once we understand your preferences and goals, the adventure begins. Whether you’re flying in for viewings or already in Portugal, we:

• Organize tailored property tours based on your shortlist
• Introduce handpicked towns and villages to help you get a real feel for the area
• Include private or exclusive listings in your visit schedule

We don’t just show homes—we help you understand the market, compare options, and move forward with confidence.

📝 Securing Your Dream Property in Portugal

Found the perfect place? Here’s how the purchase process typically works:

1. Reservation Stage

2. Promissory Contract (Contrato de Promessa de Compra e Venda)

• A legally binding contract is signed by both parties
• Buyer pays typically 10–30% of the property price
• Contract outlines the terms, conditions, and timelines

3. Final Deed (Escritura)

• Takes place at the local Notary office
• Buyer pays the remaining amount through their lawyer
• Property is legally transferred and registered in your name
