Is Portugal Still Worth Moving To in 2025? Honest Assessment | Algarve Addicts Webinars

Is Portugal still worth moving to in 2025? With rising property costs, changing visa policies, and concerns about overtourism, it's a legitimate question that deserves an honest answer based on current realities.
Nick Smith, Commercial Director at Algarve Addicts and Chartered Surveyor (MRICS), provides an unfiltered assessment of Portugal's relocation landscape. This isn't a promotional session or cheerleading for Portugal. It's a straightforward analysis of what relocating to Portugal actually looks like right now.

What we cover:
• Financial reality: How Portugal's cost of living compares to other European destinations in 2025
• Immigration updates: What's actually changing with visa policies and how it affects your plans
• Quality of life comparison: Portugal today versus five years ago
• The "missed the boat" myth: Whether it's genuinely too late or just noise
• Who should still move: The types of people for whom Portugal still makes complete sense (and who might want to reconsider)

This webinar gives you the information you need to make an informed relocation decision for YOUR specific situation.
