Solution

After a thorough search and several negotiations, the client successfully acquired a 2-bedroom apartment in Olival Basto, Odivelas, an area is known for its rental demand and potential for high returns.

About The area

Olival Basto, situated in the municipality of Odivelas, is a rapidly growing area with excellent potential for real estate investments. The neighborhood’s appeal lies in its strategic location, close to Lisbon, offering both urban convenience and suburban tranquility. Here are some key factors that contributed to the success of this investment:

High Rental Demand: Odivelas is increasingly popular among young professionals and families due to its proximity to Lisbon, excellent transport links, and high quality of life. This demand translates to a robust rental market, ensuring consistent occupancy and rental income.
Infrastructure Development: Odivelas has benefited from significant infrastructure improvements, including new schools, parks, and shopping centers, enhancing its attractiveness as a residential area.
Affordability: Compared to central Lisbon, properties in Olival Basto are more affordable while still offering high rental yields. This affordability provides a higher return on investment for buyers.
Community and Safety: The area is known for its strong sense of community and safety, making it an appealing choice for renters seeking a family-friendly environment.

Successful Results

High Annual Yield

The investment yields an impressive 9% per year, significantly enhancing the client’s portfolio.

Stable Rental Income

The property’s location in a high-demand rental area ensures consistent and lucrative rental income.

Long-Term Value

The apartment not only offers immediate financial benefits but also promises long-term capital appreciation, making it a solid addition to the client’s investment portfolio.

Client Gains

Portfolio Diversification

Successfully adding a high-performing international asset to the client’s portfolio was crucial. Diversifying investments across different markets and asset classes significantly reduces overall investment risk. By including a real estate property in Portugal, the client mitigated potential losses from market volatility in his home country. This strategic move not only enhances the stability of his portfolio but also positions him to capitalize on diverse economic conditions and growth opportunities globally.

Financial Growth

The client achieved a remarkable 9% annual return on the Portuguese property, significantly boosting the overall profitability of his portfolio. This high yield not only provides immediate financial benefits but also sets a solid foundation for sustained growth. The consistent rental income from the property contributes to a steady cash flow, reinforcing the client’s financial strength and enabling further reinvestment opportunities.

Peace of Mind

Partnering with a buyer’s agent, rather than a traditional real estate agent, provided the client with unparalleled peace of mind. Unlike real estate agents who might push their listings, buyer’s agents focus solely on the client’s needs, offering tailored solutions and comprehensive support.

Our approach involves actively listening to the client’s investment goals and working diligently both on and off the field to find the best possible property. This client-centric approach ensures that every recommendation is unbiased and, in the client’s, best interest, fostering trust and confidence in the investment process.
