I was over there last week and prices seem to be very similar to when I did the deal and got it three years ago. There was never the massive bubble in Portugal that there was in Spain.
And yes it does give a good return at the moment.
If the currency really weakens that will provide a great opportunity to pay off the mortgage on it.

Hi Frank, the bubble in Portugal isn't as strong as in Spain (700k closed brand new homes!) but I think it exists, if you consider that the minimum wage is €450 and you can't get a three room apartment for that price.Maybe the same is true in Portugal
@Lagos, if you come here in the summer please let me know and maybe we can grab a beer? I always take two weaks off in the summer near Lagos

We won't be going anywhere, that's for sure! You might know that we have the oldest stable borders in the world, so I can't think of another country that can give you a better guarantee of 'staying around'
