Refurbished Building
* Government want urban renewal * 4,500 buildings in the city require renovation * Old rental contracts fixed for 50 years * Landlords could not increase the rents * Buildings became run down * Last year laws changed for old rental contracts * It is now possible to increase rents provided that the landlord renovates the building
Renovation of City Buildings
* Most buildings are 100 years old * Any tenant living in these buildings are a minimum of 70 years old * Example: * Old rent can be approx €25 for an apartment of 170m2 * Value of a new apartment 170m2 = €3,000m2 x 170 = €510,000 * The legal municipal value on rental is 4% of price - €20,400 per year or €1,700 per month * From 4,500 buildings: 300 belong to council and 350 are currently awaiting planning approval to reconstruct in council.

What is happening now in the market?
* Due to fixed rents no money was being invested in maintenance of the buildings and the standards dropped so residents moved out of the City * New modern apartments are in high demand in Lisbon City * Trends are changing and Portuguese are moving back into the City from suburbs as renewal is taking place * There is not enough supply to meet the demand * At the moment the price of property in Lisbon is only 1/3 of the average price of property in all European capital cities * The real estate market in Portugal has been increasing steadily for the last 50 year (currently 5-8%)
