The Portugal Golden Visa program offers you the opportunity to obtain a residency permit by making an investment in Portugal. This special visa grants the right to live and work in Portugal while also providing visa-free travel to many countries in Europe.

6. After fulfilling the commitment contract terms, the buyer and seller meet again to complete the final stage of the property sale, Escritura Publica de Compra e Venda. The buyer makes the remaining payment, the seller hands over the keys, and the property is registered in the new owner's name. The transaction is complete.
