Hello,

I’m heading to Portugal in May to speak with lawyers about the golden visa application. Does anyone have any recommendations on lawyers?

Of the different options, I am exploring investment in the Portuguese stock exchange and purchasing property. Has anyone done the investment option or know is this option has good dividends?

In regards to buying property, now that the big cities and coast are excluded, what places have you considered buying in or bought in?

Thanks

You need to read up on the investment option. It's through government qualified fixed funds with a minimum five year term. They are generally considered high risk but less expensive than real estate investment (transfer taxes are high) and might have good returns. There are funds with dividends but they may have a longer term than 5 years, so you don't have access to the original investment.

Of course, real estate also has risks but if you choose the property carefully, you should be able to make a return.
