Press Release Body: Mention property in Portugal to many and the Algarve may be the first location which springs to mind. With many seaside villas, golf courses, tourist facilities and of course lots of sea and sand, this is no unreasonable response. But Portugal offers far more for those investing in property than just the sunny south.
It was reported recently in the Times that areas of the north are becoming popular, offering idyllic rural retreats at competitive prices in locations such as the Minho and Douro regions which lie inland from Porto. Here, it is less about sand and sea than greenery and the famous port wine. Investors in buy-to-let for holidaymakers where will be serving a very different clientele.
Yet there are many other alternatives to the Algarve as well. For instance, those who wish to invest in a coastal are but not have to pay Algarve prices, there is the Silver Coast.
Overseas property portal homesgofast.com has listed this as a particularly good area, with chief executive officer Nick Marr stating that the new developments there include \"purely designer homes that will start at about 450,000 [pounds] upwards\".
The very fact that the word designer is used is an example of how Portugal is aiming at a different market to the one traditionally served by its Iberian neighbour, Mr Marr noted, adding: \"That sort of gives you an indication of the difference between Spain and Portugal\" and observing that \"celebrity\" architects were involved in such design.
Yet at the same time, Mr Marr stated, it was other parts of the country, not the emerging Silver Coast Portugal Property, which had the higher prices. He concluded: \"The Silver Coast is definitely an area that is going to be up and coming. The Portuguese call it the Costa de Prata - it is going to be another place other than the Algarve, which is the most popular place in Portugal.\"
Of course, buyers may have yet different ideas. Rather than looking to buy in the existing developments of the Algarve or in the blossoming future of the Silver Coast, or for that matter the Port wine regions, why not in Lisbon Portuguese Property? The Daily Telegraph\'s latest report on Portugal\'s property market suggests that this may be a distinctly attractive move. While it notes the nation\'s capital does not quite have the glamour of Rome or Barcelona, it does have cityscapes, culture, food, wine and, above all, rising property prices.
The paper notes that British investors are starting to come into the city, stating that improvements in the transport infrastructure have helped, including new subway lines and the passing of plans to create a new airport at Alochete, which is set to be operational by 2018.
Paul Houston of estate agency Lucas Fox told the paper this was a crucial factor for the city\'s future development, stating: \"All the uncertainty is over and confidence in the economy and the property market will grow.\"
So for those looking to invest in Portuguese property, there is not just variety in the locations that can be chosen, but also prospects for growth in some very diverse places.
