Real estate investment remains robust in 2019

Historical levels. This is the expression that best characterizes the investment in the real estate market in Portugal. The good performance of the Portuguese real estate market could not fail to attract the international investment that, in little more than a decade, ended up dominating the market. According to CBRE, the volume of national investment increased from 57% in 2007 to 9% in 2018. Although a slight recovery is expected in 2019, CBRE estimates that the volume of national investment should not exceed 10% 15%.

The rates of profitability also represent a factor of attractiveness. According to CBRE, there was a stabilization of prime yields in 2018 and the trend will continue in 2019, as "interest rates are only expected to start rising at the end of the year and the market continues to have high liquidity."
