Beachside living and properties by the Atlantic


The Promissory Purchase and Sale Agreement (CPCV) quickly becomes a key term and part of daily life for anyone involved in the process of buying or selling a property. Although not mandatory, it is highly recommended as it protects both the seller and the buyer, providing clear indications of their rights and obligations until the deed is executed. Essentially, it’s a way to ensure both parties can breathe a sigh of relief! The seller receives a deposit, and the buyer has their dream home secured!

In the eastern Algarve, for example, we find the famous ruins of Milreu, in the historic village of Estoi, located just 8 kilometres from Faro. Further north, following National Road 2 towards the Serra do Caldeirão, in the municipality of São Brás de Alportel, there are two relatively well-preserved stretches of Roman road.
