Does buying property in Coimbra qualify for the Golden Visa?
No. The direct real-estate route to the Golden Visa closed in October 2023. As of 2026 the Golden Visa is obtained through other investments, such as regulated investment funds. Buying a home can still support a residence application under other visas, such as the D2 for entrepreneurs. We advise on both.
Do you act for the buyer?
Yes. We are independent advisers acting on behalf of the buyer. Through partnerships with large and small agencies we can show you most of the market, then handle due diligence, purchase, residency and management. Real estate mediation is carried out by Benefit Discovery, Lda, AMI 27772.
