FAQ How does buying rural land in Alcochete differ from city purchases?

Transactions often involve Escritura Pública (notarized deeds) with additional checks for agricultural zoning or water rights, requiring patience during municipal reviews.

Can historic properties be modernized easily? Many face Alvará (permit) restrictions from IGESPAR, Portugal’s heritage body, so feasibility studies are essential before offers.

Do you assist with post-purchase residency steps? Yes, she connects international clients with legal partners for Licença de Residência applications but doesn’t provide immigration advice.
