In this article, we are going to give you a rundown regarding the types of property available in Portugal.
When it comes to buying property overseas many see owning a villa as the pinnacle.

Apartments are a popular choice in Portugal for buyers. Whether you choose to live in your apartment permanently or for selected months of the year, there are some brilliant apartment complexes available. These are ideal if you want a 'Lock & Leave' property, there is no outdoor maintenance as this is covered in your monthly condominium fee.
Complexes with communal features such as pools and garden areas are available and if you are interested in buying to let, there is a very active market for renting apartments in Portugal.
Townhouses are an alternative to the typical villas and apartments found in Portugal. Townhouses offer a similar amount of internal space to villas but do not have the wide open external space of a garden.
If you still want the luxury of swimming pools and terraces etc. then you can search for a town house with communal facilities.
These types of property are still great if you want to use the property seasonally and if you are buying to let, there is a huge market for renting out townhouses.
Resort properties are also a viable option; you can find them as part of golfing or leisure complexes across Portugal. Even if you are not the most avid golfer, they can still be a great choice for investment.
