Why
invest
in
real
estate
in
the
Algarve.
One
good
reason
why
the
region
Algarve
in
Portugal
attracts
so
many
people
is
that
the
climate
is
mild
and
sunny
all
year
round.
There’s
no
shortage
of
beaches
either.
Sandy
stretches
as
far
as
the
eye
can
see,
and
as
Europe’s
top
destination
for
surfing
and
golf
it
attracts
many
visitors
every
year.
The
Algarve
is
seen
as
a
top
property
investment
option
in
Europe.
In
recent
years
it
has
become
THE
location
of
choice
for
expats
and
pensioners,
buying
their
dream
home
or
investing
in
rental
real
estate.
Here
are
3
reasons
to
invest
in
real
estate
in
the
Algarve:
1. Quality
of
life
Having
a
mild
climate,
great
food,
cultural
heritage
and
being
very
safe
all
contributes
to
the
high
quality
of
life
here.
The
wide
range
of
recreation
facilities
make
it
one
of
the
best
places
to
live
in
Europe.
Plus,
the
people
in
the
Algarve
are
known
for
their
friendliness
and
hospitality.
2. Low
costs
of
living
Compared
to
other
countries
in
the
European
Union,
Portugal
has
one
of
the
lowest
levels
of
costs
and
taxes.
The
mild
climate
will
keep
utility
costs
down.
You
can
go
to
traditional
markets
and
buy
your
essentials
for
a
good
price
directly
from
the
local
farmers.
And
don´t
forget
that
much
of
what
is
enjoyable
about
Portugal—the
friendly
people,
the
laidback
lifestyle,
the
countryside,
and
stunning
beaches—is
free.
3. Tourism
The
Algarve
is
the
most
touristic
region
of
Portugal,
which
makes
it
the
perfect
place
to
invest
in
a
property.
The
real
estate
market
is
growing
fast
here. When
buying
a
property
in
the
Algarve,
you
will
not
only
have
a
place
to
stay
but
also
the
possibility
of
renting
it
out
long-‐
or
short-‐term.
Vacation
rentals
can
be
very
profitable
and
real
estate
prices,
although
rising,
are
still
more
attractive
than
in
many
other
European
countries.
To
make
a
successful
investment
get
advise
from
a
real
estate
professional.

you
with
the
search
of
your
new
home
as
well
as
the
full

of
your

property.
