How does Algarve Dream Living help me find a home?
We map your budget and needs, shortlist areas and properties, arrange viewings, and guide you from offer to keys.
Do you charge buyers a fee?
Our buyer service is typically paid by the seller’s side. If a custom search fee applies, we state it upfront.
Which Algarve areas should I consider?
It depends on lifestyle. West (Lagos, Sagres) for nature and surf. Central (Albufeira, Vilamoura) for amenities. East (Tavira, Olhão) for charm and value.
Do I need a lawyer?
Yes. A local, independent lawyer handles due diligence, contracts, and registration. We can introduce vetted options.
Can foreigners buy property in Portugal?
Yes. There are no general restrictions. You will need a Portuguese tax number (NIF) and a local bank account for the purchase.
What about renting the property out?
Short-term rentals may require an AL license. Long-term rentals do not. We advise on permits, taxes, and managers.
