“Most of the people who call us are not fleeing anything. They are diversifying, the same way they would with a portfolio, and a second residency is the cheapest insurance they will ever buy.”
The Americans buying their way into Europe, and what it actually costs
“Since Portugal removed real estate from the Golden Visa, the fund route has become the default for American applicants. Our US inquiries have doubled year on year, and the profile has shifted from retirees to families in their forties.”
Golden Visa demand from US investors hits a record as Portugal's fund route matures
“The D7 is not a loophole. It is a passive-income visa with real residency obligations, and the clients who treat it as a commitment rather than a shortcut are the ones still happy three years in.”
Retire in Portugal: what the D7 visa really requires
