February 2026: New Project Launches
This month saw several exciting new project launches across Portugal's key markets. Here's our initial assessment of each.
Highlights
The market continues to see strong developer confidence, with new launches targeting both the premium and mid-market segments.
What We're Watching
-
Construction timelines — Several projects announced for 2027-2028 delivery. We recommend verifying construction permits and financing before committing.
-
Price adjustments — Some developers are offering early-bird pricing with 5-10% discounts for off-plan purchases. This can represent good value but carries construction risk.
-
Sustainability features — New launches increasingly emphasize energy efficiency (A+ ratings), solar panels, and EV charging. These features add 3-5% to construction costs but improve long-term value.
Due Diligence Checklist
Before investing in any new development:
- ✅ Verify the developer's track record (previous projects, delivery history)
- ✅ Check construction permits and licensing status
- ✅ Review the CPCV (promissory contract) terms carefully
- ✅ Understand the payment schedule and bank guarantee provisions
- ✅ Get an independent legal review before signing
