Should I buy or rent a home in Cascais?
If you have not spent a lot of time in Cascais, you should rent before even thinking about buying. We asked expats there about the buy vs. rent decision...
"Buying a home in Cascais can be a great investment. The city is known for its beautiful beaches, stunning architecture, and vibrant culture. The cost of living is relatively low compared to other cities in Europe, making it an attractive option for those looking to purchase a home.

"I am renting an apartment. It was difficult at first because a number of realtors didn't show an interest in helping me. When I found the right realtor, it went fairly easily. The biggest issue was having to pay for an entire years rent due to having no family in Portugal. There is also a scarcity of rental properties that are long term rentals," remarked another expat who made the move to Cascais, Portugal.
