• Agree the price with the seller


• Instruct Portugal lawyer to make the usual checks:


• Property must have a “Habitation Licence” (don’t buy a property without this licence).


• The deeds must be registered to the seller.


• Make an inventory of the contents of the property if these are to be included in the purchase.


• Proceed to ‘promissary contract’ (exchange of contract) pay 10% deposit, agreed completion date.
