General Information

Finding accommodation (Portugal)
 

To find a flat or a house to rent is necessary to have the Personal Taxation Number and a bank account. Failing this, you will be asked to pay at least six months rent in advance as a guarantee.

You can find lot of places to rent or to buy through the newspapers, but it’s better to go to the specialised offices where the contracts are conform to the legislation and the accommodation can be visited before any contract is signed.

Normally a one-year contract is made and it is very important to pay attention to the conditions to that apply at the termination of the agreement.

Once again, it must be stressed that it is a good idea to use an advisor.
