Silver Coast Property for sale, Portugal

The Silver Coast hugs the North Atlantic coastline and stretches from the industrial district of Porto down to Portugal’s largest city, Lisbon.

Until recently the region of the Silver Coast was a well kept secret that only the locals knew about. But now this area, with its rolling landscape, beautiful beaches, great sporting facilities and affordable real estate is a popular destination for tourists, golfers and property investors alike. Listed as the third most profitable location in Europe to invest in (by “A Place in the Sun”), the Silver Coast could be the ideal place to buy a second holiday home investment. The Silver Coast offers good prospects for rental from both the local market and from holidaymakers. The area is cheaper than the Algarve and has the potential of significant property price rises.

Portuguese Property Market, still going strong

Despite the recent market conditions, property sales in Portugal seem to be bucking the trend. There are many reasons why people continue to buy property in Portugal.
Investors, mainly from Northern Europe, are still looking for a safe place to invest their money, away from the banks and into the traditional commodity, property. Portugal still offers great value, especially in the West coast areas and the central regions including the Alentejo. Prices are still relatively low and there still seems to be enough tenants for the properties.
Other investors are using the “credit crunch” to take advantage of the bargain properties in the Algarve. Developers haven´t over-developed in the same way that the Spanish and Turkish developers have, so the market is still strong enough to give an investor confidence, but the developers do seem to be offering great deals just to shift properties and to reduce their gearing with the banks.
Lifestyle buyers are able to pick up some great deals, especially in the Algarve, as owners in other countries have been forced to sell. The property market in Portugal offers sufficient variation in style, location and price to suit all tastes. The airports are well served from all over the world and flights from Northern Europe are frequent and cheap. The perfect recipe for lifestyle buyers.

Mortgages and financial advice in Portugal

When buying a property in Portugal, it is worth contacting a Portuguese bank with regards to mortgages available as they can often offer superior rates or conditions than that offered by your current bank.

We recommend that you contact an independent mortgage adviser in order that they can establish your particular requirements and find the best deal for you. We currently recommend such a company here who are based in Almancil although they are happy to meet you in any area of the Algarve. They do not charge a fee for their services and by contacting them you will not have to navigate your way around the banking system if you have limited Portuguese. They work independently and are able to offer a great range of mortgage and investment products through a number of well known financial institutions here in Portugal. As well as mortgage advice, they are able to offer a range of services such as investment advice, home, car and life insurance and foreign exchange transfers.

General documentation required to apply for a mortgage in Portugal is listed below.

• Portuguese tax number (the company can arrange this for a small fee)
• Copy of ID card or passport
• Last 6 months of bank statements (current and savings)
• Birth certificate
• Last years tax return (P60)

Further documentation will be required with regards to your current employment status. Mortgages for non residents are offered up to 80% loan to value. The borrowing level is based on the house valuation and not the purchase price.

Please contact us if you would like more information and we would be pleased to ask a representative to contact you to discuss your requirements further. You can email us on gatehouse@sapo.pt or call on our UK number +44 208 123 1880. This will divert free of charge to our office in the Algarve.
