Portugal Golden Visa for 280,000 € Investments in low-density areas of the the country/ DRP Advisers Portfolio of Investments

PUBLISHED ON 
28.10.2020

With the new regulations coming next year in Portugal, the interest of foreign investors will move to so-called low-density areas of the country, where Golden Visa investments can be applied with only 280.000 Euros.

‍

As many of you know, The Portugal Golden Visa is a golden visa program by the government of Portugal that grants residency to people who invest in properties worth at least €500,000, but not everyone knows that the actual investments in real estate can start from 280.000 Euros. How it works? If the property is located in so-called “low-density areas” of the country (areas with less than 100 inhabitants per sq.km., or where the GDP per head is below 75% of the national average), the value of this investment may be reduced in 20%. Meaning, that you can buy a new property instead of €500,000 for €400,000 and still get the Golden Visa. Or you can invest in Portugal property that is in need of rehabilitation and in this case, minimum requirement decreases to €350,000. The property either has to be built more than 30 years ago or has to be located in a designated area of urban rehabilitation. If the property is in a “low density area”, minimum requirement gets reduced to €280,000.

280,000 Euros investments in Evora- DRP Recommendation

Why to invest in real estate in Evora?

Due to its extensive historical and cultural importance, in the past few years Evora has seen a huge increase in the tourism sector, which led to the creation of many hotels, bed-and-breakfasts, Airbnb renting and various other styles of accommodation.

But why we love Evora from the real estate investment point of view? One word: low-risk.

Evora is a relatively small city, so finding a good investment, is like finding a diamond, you need to know the market, region and local prices. That is why we have our own office with team of real estate brokers and analysts. Most of them were born in the city and know every little corner of Evora, so when a new opportunity is coming, our team is the first one to know and informed.

Apart from difficulties in finding the right investments to buy, it is not so easy to find the property to rent, because of the limited options, which is definitely a good reason to buy if you are lucky enough to find a good property.

One of the oldest Universities in Portugal, the University of Evora, is located in the historical part of the city. University is popular not only among Portuguese but also has a lot of foreign students. Currently, there are about 10000 students enrolled. They all need a place to live and unfortunately, there are not so many options in the city for them. That is why many of our clients bought houses in Evora and are currently renting them to students, which brings them a regular stable income and security, as there are always going to be students looking for accommodation. Evora, unlike big cities, has no speculation with prices on the real estate market. Additionally, as we mentioned in the beginning, investment can be only for 280,000 Euros and not 500.000 Euros, as Evora is qualified for a low-density area.

Apart from students, there are many families that are looking for houses to rent and due to the high rate of tourist visitors, Airbnb is also of the options, although Lisbon, Porto and other big cities are still considered a better choice for the Airbnb rental model.

Why do we recommend to work with a local agency that has a present office in the city? First of all, if you are not planning to live in Evora and consider it exclusively as an investment and way to get Golden Visa, you will most likely rent the property. But who wants to deal with all the overwhelmed paperwork, constant communication with the tenants about the broken chairs or bulbs?

Moreover, when you buy the investment for 280,000 Euros, one of the conditions from the government is to renovate the property (renovation price is included in 280,000 Euros) you will face the problem of communication with the local construction company, that sometimes don’t speak good English. Why would you need to bring additional problems and headaches to your life, when you can just work with the local company, that already been through this process many times and knows all the underwater rocks.

Evora offers a truly unique Portuguese experience, with a distinctive heritage, delicious regional cuisines and an infectious unhurried pace of life, that is so wanted by people from big crowded cities.

4) If you a fan of the south of Portugal and don’t want to spend much, we have a good Golden Visa option for you. An apartment hotel located in Albufeira, close to Olhos d’Agua Beach, and 3 minutes from the exquisite Maria Luisa Beach.

The project will be fully managed by the developer and he is offering 100% buyback and annual return paid upfront for 5 years.
