Real estate prices keep increasing in Portugal and Lisbon
The purchase of a house in Lisbon cost, between July and September of last year, 3.205 euros per square meter, or 11.4 % more than the previous year. The Portuguese capital therefore naturally remains the most expensive city in the country to live in. The Santo António district is the most expensive, with a value of 4,889 euros per square meter, while Santa Clara presents itself as the cheapest (2,090 euros per square meter). However, in terms of price developments, the scenario changes.
Prices increased the most in Marvila: + 47.6% to 2,845 euros per square meter. This performance can be explained by the sale of apartments to Prata Riversidade Village, a development by VIC Properties on the edge of the Tagus. Contrary to the upward trend in most areas of the capital, there was one where housing prices fell. It is in Lumiar, in the Alta de Lisboa, that prices fell by 1.3% to reach an average of 2,596 euros per square meter, specifies the INE.
