Tolerable rental yields but not enormously attractive

Is Lisbon a good place to buy investment property? Apartments in Lisbon are relatively inexpensive by European standards at €2,393, and villas are even more attractively priced, with average per square metre (sq. m.) prices of €1,825.
However as an investment property destination, Lisbon remains problematic. A property investment which brings a gross rental yield of 4.8%, as apartments in Lisbon do, is tolerable, but not enormously attractive. Quite aside from the various regulations which discourage property owners, and the country’s recently very low rate of growth (which can be read about on other pages) - factors which should discourage property investment.
The average (sq. m.) price of an apartment in the Algarve is €1,925. Villas average €2,581
Unfortunately, no rental figures are available for villas in Lisbon, so no investment return figures are available.
