Save €1,000’s on Your Property Selling and Buying Legal Fees in Portugal

Whenever you are buying or selling a property in Portugal you need to appoint a lawyer to protect your interests and insure that all the legalities are correct. The work that the lawyer will do on your behalf will include:

• Power of Attorney to act as your legal representative;
• Obtaining and checking all the documents of the property;
• Checking that there is no loan or taxes outstanding on the property;
• Drafting, checking and signing of the Promissory Contract;
• Pre-registration and registration of the Title Deeds;
• Signing at the Notary for the transfer of the Title Deeds;
• Paying the agent fees according to the Client / Agent contract;
• Changing the electricity and water with the respective companies;
• Holding and paying any overdue capital gains tax on the property.

For this Legal Service the standard rate charged by Lawyers in Portugal is 1% plus IVA (VAT) of the sale price of the property, which can amount to a substantial amount of money.
