Portugal is one of the most sought-after destinations for high-net-worth individuals looking for residency by investment (RBI) programmes in Europe, with demand escalating every year .
The surge in interest comes as a result of the multi-layered benefits of investing in the Portuguese Golden Visa, which include free access to public hospitals, entry into European universities and job markets as well as access to citizenship within five years. The Portuguese passport ranks among the top five most powerful and travel-friendly, granting visa-free access to more than 180 countries.
Add to that the strong performance of the real estate sector in Portugal, and it becomes clear why 90 per cent of Golden Visa investments in 2021 were property related.
In this new Gulf News webinar, Invest in real estate in Portugal for Golden Visa, our panel of experts from PTGoldenVisa will offer a detailed breakdown of the real estate investment options, returns and benefits.
They will also be discussing the changes introduced by the Portuguese government this year to balance investments between the main cities and the interior regions, and how these changes will impact investors looking for Golden Visa in Portugal.
“With the minimum investment starting at €280,000, Portugal Golden Visa is the cheapest and the quickest route to secure the fourth strongest passport in the world,” says Tiago Camara, co-founder and partner of PTGoldenVisa.
“We are currently experiencing a very high demand for real estate. During times of instability, investors are increasingly looking for a backup plan for themselves and their family members that guarantees future security. Many high-net-worth-individuals are opting for Portugal for investments, as the market provides a safety net for their family, opportunities for portfolio diversification and returns on their investments,” explains Camara. He, however, warns that investment options for the Golden Visa programme are limited, and advises investors to proceed as soon as possible.
