How to purchase?

Six steps to ownership

The first step after choosing your home in Pine Hills, Vilamoura is to pay a booking deposit of €5000 which is used to hold the property.

The next step is to appoint your legal representation in Portugal who will work directly with our law firm Global Lawyers based in Lisbon.

A promissory contract will then be signed by you with a deposit of 10% paid to our law firm’s client account. This will enable the property to be removed from the market whilst preparations are made for the subsequent contractual documentation to be prepared.

Usually within a further 3-4 weeks the completion of the purchase can proceed by both vendor and purchaser signing the “escritura” contract. This contract is the equivalent of the deeds to the property.

The signing of the "escritura" ends with the transfer of balance of funds to our law firm’s client account and new registration of the property in the presence of the official notary. Once this has been done and the property is registered at the Land Registry Office and Local Tax Office, and is legally yours.

You will be welcomed as a new owner in Pine Hills and our team on the ground are at your disposal anytime with our 24/7 reception and concierge service.

Why are people investing in Portugal?

Since 2016 MESPIL has targeted Portugal’s property market, seeking homes for sale on the Algarve to acquire and turn into investment for foreign real estate buyers.

The Algarve real estate market has shown stable growth recovery while offering a very attractive level of rental yields for foreign investors seeking to purchase property as a rental investment. The prospect of consistent rental income for buyers drives the demand for Algarve villas and apartments as well as subsequent capital appreciation on selling, in line with its steadily growing market and safe economic climate.

Why Buy in Portugal? Clients main reasons are...

The Non Habitual Residency (NHR)

Created by the Portuguese government to drive foreign investment, the NHR incentive allows professionals to pay only 20% flat-rate income tax on foreign income, or for retirees, zero income on both pension and other non-Portuguese investment earnings. This is valid for a period of ten years after which Portugal’s marginal income tax rate is applied.

Although tax breaks and incentives are undoubtedly alluring, MESPIL’s reasons for investing in Portugal are less transient and is based on the more idyllic pleasures that have consistently drawn people to buy homes in the Algarve.

The Golden Visa

This scheme is one of the most attractive in Europe for non-EU citizens and a massive boon to the health of the Algarve and Portugal real estate markets. The Golden Visa allows its holders to work, live and study in Portugal and grants five year residency to applicants who meet certain criteria of either.

  • Creating ten new jobs in Portugal.
  • Transferring capital of €1 million to Portugal.
  • Acquire immovable property worth €500,000 or more

The property buying route is the most common method and is an attractive prospect for long-term investment in Portuguese and Algarve property.

Climate

Southern Portugal’s climate is balmy and mild, with temperatures in winter rarely getting below 15 degrees.

The Algarve boasts 300 days of sunshine on average a year. This is reassuring for buy-to-let investors who are guaranteed a strong rental interest in any potential Algarve property they may invest in.

Beaches

The beaches of the Algarve are quite simply breath-taking, with 200km of golden sandy coastline that boasts the hidden inlets sheltered by cliffs and caves, to the yawning stretch of pristine sand backed by red cliffs of Falesia Beach, the Algarve’s beaches are as plentiful as they are stunning. Falesia beach was awarded 3rd best beach in Europe in 2018, and was voted 11th best beach in the world by Trip Advisor’s Travellers’ Choice Awards. The Algarve has also won the prize as best European Beach Destination at the World Travel Awards more than once. The beaches are a massive attraction for those thinking of buying real estate in the Algarve.

Golf

Portugal’s golf courses are widely known to be world class. The southern coastline has grown into a global golf destination with idyllic courses that foreign golfers flock to in their droves. PwC reported that foreign golf tourism generated €500 million the Algarve in 2017 and supported 16,800 jobs in the area. A staggering 1.3 million rounds of golf were played in the Algarve alone that year, driving the demand for rental property and drawing many golf enthusiasts to seek Algarve homes to buy.

Quality of Life

The idyllic climate, low cost of living and Mediterranean lifestyle are all key indicators of high quality of life but the accolade was confirmed by a survey in Expat Insider that voted Portugal the number one country for quality of life for expats. The Algarve in particular gets a mention as the number one place to retire to according to Forbes. Further certification of the benefit of an Algarve real estate investment.
