If you are
considering purchasing a plot of land in Portugal to
construct the home of your dreams, be certain the land you are
interested in is viable for construction prior to making any
financial commitment.
Planning control is strict in Portugal and there
are strict controls on the type of land which can be constructed on.
Although an advertisement for land may state it is a building plot,
unless it has an urban or commercial designation, this is not always
the case. If you are purchasing land which has
planning approval for construction, check the validity of the
approval to ensure it has not lapsed as this can mean plans have to
be resubmitted to the council for re-approval, which can be costly
and time consuming. For more information on the
