According to a study by the consultancy PWC, Lisbon aroused the interest of European investors and is already the seventh preferred city for betting on real estate.
Also according to PWC Portugal, "investment in real estate between the fourth quarter of 2014 and the last quarter of 2015 amounted to 2 billion euros. Investment funds from countries such as China, Malaysia, Singapore, Brazil, Angola, United States, The United Kingdom and the Netherlands are gaining more and more relevance, to the detriment of funds from countries like Germany. "
The outlook for 2016 is optimistic and the upward path started in 2012 is expected to continue.
According to PWC, one of the reasons for this positive behavior has to do with the interest rates that are at historically low levels, being a good alternative to investment in bonds.
Let's see, if with the changes planned for the 2016 State Budget in matters of IMT and IMI, the funds will continue to bet on Portugal. We hope so.
