Infante & Riu, both its Real Estate Agency and its Business Broker, will once again be present at the Portugal Fair in Paris, this year more focused on two key areas: Real Estate and Investment. The event will take place on the 22nd, 23rd and 24th September 2023, at the Espace Champerret Exhibition Centre, Hall A, in Paris, with free entrances.
This 10th edition will involve 150 representatives and professionals, will hold more than 40 conferences on various themes and is expecting more than 10,000 visitors.
This French people's interest in the Portuguese market is confirmed by the survey carried out in June 2023, by OpinionWay, about the image that the French have of Portugal today. This study revealed that Portugal is seen positively by all generations, it continues to be a privileged destination for retirees, and is a target country for investors due to its economic dynamism and strong development policy. Furthermore, it should be noted that in 2022, the French were the foreign community that bought the most in Lisbon.
At this show, we will have the opportunity to present the developments and properties we have in portfolio, as well as the available investment options, and give a conference on a new charming project in the center of Tavira (Algarve).
