About

The Portugal Platform

Why this Portuguese platform exists — from the inside of how property actually trades in Lisboa, Porto and beyond.

Portugal's property market went from niche to mainstream in a decade. NHR, Golden Visa, Lisboa's tourism boom — they pulled international capital in, and then, in October 2023, they changed the rules. The market that exists now is not the one the consultants are still describing.

This platform exists to work the market as it is. IMT brackets. Condomínio costs. AL licensing in containment zones. IFICI instead of NHR. Confidencial Imobiliário per-m² data instead of generic 'price index'.

Every tool is built from a spreadsheet that was needed on a real deal. The IMT calculator — because getting the deduction formula wrong at escritura is an expensive education. The yield heatmap — because AL-frozen Lisboa and AL-open Lagos are two different businesses. The due diligence checklist — because the conservatória workflow eats weeks if you don't know the order.

Built for how Portuguese property actually trades.

What it's built on

Data from the right sources

INE for transactions, Confidencial Imobiliário for per-m² pricing, Banco de Portugal for mortgage rates, Autoridade Tributária for IMT brackets. Everything here is anchored to the source that actually moves the Portuguese market.

Portugal-specific, not Portugal-shaped

A generic 'EU stamp duty calculator' misses the point. IMT has progressive brackets, deductions, primary-vs-secondary splits, and a youth carve-out. The tools here model all of it.

Work the deal, not the pitch

This is a workspace for people who transact. Sharp numbers, fast inputs, no marketing gloss. If it doesn't help you decide on a fracção autónoma by Thursday, it doesn't ship.
