Why buyers use Alori for the Algarve
Curated, not a listing feed
We check location, legal title and developer record before we put a home in front of you.
Fewer markets, deeper knowledge
We cover Portugal and Georgia only. That means real local detail on Algarve areas, not a global catalogue.
Legal steps coordinated for you
We coordinate due diligence and conveyancing with vetted local partners. You still use your own independent legal and tax advisers.
A wide choice of Algarve homes
Beachfront villas, Golden Triangle golf residences, resort apartments, penthouses and inland farmhouses.
Built for buyers abroad
We work with buyers in the United States and Europe and walk you through each step of a Portuguese purchase.
Support after the purchase
Referrals for property management and rental set-up once title transfer is complete.
What you can buy in the Algarve
The Algarve is Portugal's southern coast: beach towns, golf resort communities and quiet countryside inland. Alori works in a short list of areas we know well, so you get real pricing context instead of guesswork.
We are not a public listing portal. Access is selective. Each property we present is vetted for location, legal structure and a clear exit plan, and we tell you plainly where a deal does not fit your goals.

Frequently asked questions
How much do houses in the Algarve cost?
Pricing is given on request, property by property. Most purchases we handle fall between $100,000 and $600,000, and higher-end trophy homes are available on request. Price depends on location, size and property type.
Can Americans buy property in the Algarve?
Yes. Foreign ownership is unrestricted in Portugal, with no residency or citizenship required. Purchases are registered with the Conservatoria do Registo Predial for full legal title records.
Can I browse your Algarve listings online?
No. Alori is not a public listing portal or MLS. Access is selective, and much of our Algarve inventory is off-market or pre-launch through local developer relationships. Send your criteria and we will share what matches.
Does buying an Algarve home give me a Golden Visa?
Portugal's Golden Visa is no longer available through a direct real estate purchase. A qualifying investment fund route exists, and we can explain how it works. You should take your own independent legal and tax advice.
How do buyers pay for an Algarve property?
Buyers typically use cash, home equity such as a HELOC, developer payment plans or local financing. Alori does not lend or arrange mortgages.
What ongoing costs should I plan for?
Portuguese IMI property tax is typically 0.3-0.45% of cadastral value. Condominium and resort communities also charge service or maintenance fees, which vary by development. We set these out for each property.
