"In Portugal, it would be very difficult" to evict Maricarmen

In Portugal, tenants with old lease agreements (pre-1990) who are over 65 or have a certified disability of 60% or more enjoy special legal protections against eviction, even if the property is sold. Unlike newer contracts, landlords cannot terminate these leases simply by opposing renewal or providing five years' notice. Termination is restricted to specific cases like the landlord's own housing need or major renovations, and the sale of a building does not void existing lease terms.
