Investimento estrangeiro

In a Lusa interview published on 7 November, ahead of his final lecture at ISEG, economist and former Bloco de Esquerda coordinator Francisco Louçã said property funds accounted for roughly 80% of property purchases and sales in the first half of the year and argued the country should take power away from them. He also criticised the PS's public guarantee and tax-benefit proposals as price-inflating, preferring rent-controlled release of existing homes, and called the PRR a missed opportunity. Treat the 80% figure as his claim, not a published statistic.

Speaking around CGD's results presentation in Lisbon on 5 November, chief executive Paulo Macedo said the bank has lent over €1.6 billion to construction companies, up 22% year on year, and that the shortage — which he put at around 300,000 homes — will not be solved in one legislative term; he also argued rent freezes would keep homes off the market and called for the 25,000 PRR-funded homes to be finished. BPI's João Pedro Oliveira e Costa pressed for industrialised construction, incentives and faster approvals, and BCP's Miguel Maya said the bank has reoriented its property development unit towards moderately priced homes for middle and lower-middle income households.

Dils Portugal puts commercial real estate investment at €2 billion so far this year, 7% above the same period of 2025, with €630 million transacted in the third quarter, 33% more than the second. Retail led Q3 with €195 million (31%), lifted by the sale of Forum Algarve, while offices had their best quarter of the year at €112 million; year to date, hotels stand at €590 million and industrial and logistics at €384 million, the latter on track for its second-largest annual volume in a decade.
