To avoid the risk of buying a house in Portugal, we can do the following:
Pay attention to the relevant regulations on real estate rental
After buying a house and immigrating to Portugal, many China people tend to rent out their houses, except for occasional holiday trips, because they have to take care of their domestic businesses. So what are the rules for renting houses in Portugal? In Portugal, there are many complicated regulations on housing rental, which are regulated by a series of laws and decrees. Landlords are not allowed to arbitrarily or modify the contract, nor can they arbitrarily increase the rent in violation of government regulations. That is to say, the domestic rental market in Portugal is relatively stable, with little fluctuation, and the reasonable rental-sales ratio is between 3-5%. In addition, the rental income after buying a house needs to pay 25% tax. The chartered property provided by Chinese immigrants can save a lot of troubles.
Pay attention to the qualification of intermediary agencies
As a new immigration project, the competition in Portugal is fierce, and some black intermediaries take the opportunity to increase prices and sell houses, which causes short-term chaos in new industries. Portuguese investment immigrants not only need to be familiar with Portugal, but also do a good job in Portuguese immigration bureau, lawyers, real estate developers, preparing immigration documents and transferring funds from banks in China. "Experienced person" said that the most worry-free and labor-saving thing is to find a large-scale immigration intermediary company with standardized operation. Generally, such companies have set up their own ground connection and follow-up service teams in the local area, have a deeper understanding of the local real estate market, can introduce various types of local real estate for investors to choose from, and have relatively high customer success rate and satisfaction.
Pay attention to the difference between buying a villa and an apartment
Western countries always respect personal property. For buyers, the property they buy is absolutely personal, and they can permanently own the property and land property rights. For example, if you buy a villa in Portugal, then the villa and the land where it is located belong to the buyers. Therefore, if the property buyers themselves want to rebuild their houses with the consent of their neighbors, including changing the appearance and tearing them down for reconstruction.
however, unlike buying a villa, the owner who buys an apartment does not own all the buildings. According to the relevant laws of Portugal, some buildings, corridors, etc. of some apartments belong to the public, and the owners cannot change the appearance and use without authorization. If the change is determined, it needs to be decided by the owner of the apartment or his representative. If the owner who voted in favor holds two-thirds or more of the total value of the apartment, the appearance and use can be changed.
Pay attention to the difference between the existing building and the future building
With the wave of investment and home ownership driven by Portuguese immigrants, local Portuguese real estate developers have seen the huge potential business opportunities and rushed to the buyer's market in China. For example, many developers have stepped up their efforts to develop various properties. However, investors need to pay attention to the fact that these properties are still in the construction stage, or even have not yet started, and the risk of investing in such buildings will be correspondingly higher. Experts from Chinese immigrants suggest that Portuguese immigrants who buy houses should build their houses now and invest in high-value properties for rent and resale in the future.
Pay attention to the actual area of the real estate
It is very important to calculate the building area and usable area when buying a house. When buying a real estate in Portugal, it is best to look at the specific details of the area composition. The area of an apartment may include indoor area, storage room area, parking space area, balcony area and outdoor space area. Then, what is the proportion of the part outside the indoor area? What public areas does the housing area include? What is the actual use area? These questions should be asked clearly. Only by calculating the effective area can the house price be truly reflected, so as to prevent the house price from being inflated. In order to prevent local people from pushing up the market price, international surveyors can also be hired to evaluate the market price, so as to reduce the investment risk.
Pay attention to the location of the real estate
A real estate is often judged, regardless of whether it is luxurious or not, and the location is the key. This is also the fundamental reason why many remote high-end luxury houses are less competitive than ordinary houses on the market. The so-called lot includes the surrounding facilities, the location, the distance from schools and hospitals, etc., that is, from the aspects of convenient life, convenient transportation and pleasant environment. There are not many valuable properties in Portugal. Although some properties are new, the location is not flattering. The property of 711,111 euros may not be as good as the property of 511,111 euros in the urban area.
