"Sales are falling and will continue to fall": the housing market is entering "more moderate" months
Property sales are slowing and house price growth is expected to remain more moderate through the rest of 2026 and into 2027, though prices are not projected to drop. A market analysis comparing Portugal with Spain highlights that while property values are similar between Lisbon, Porto, Madrid, and Barcelona, Portuguese family disposable incomes are less than half those in Spain, driving much higher household effort rates for buying or renting.
Why it matters
If you are looking to buy or rent property in Portugal, expect slower price growth ahead, though affordability will remain severely strained by low average disposable incomes relative to housing costs.CNN PortugalRead original ↗
