How to Use This Calculator
Our Portugal mortgage calculator is designed specifically for expats and non-residents. It provides a quick estimate based on the property price, your down payment, and current interest rates.
Understanding Mortgage Rates in Portugal
Most mortgages in Portugal for non-residents use a Variable Rate indexed to the Euribor (3, 6, or 12 months) plus a margin called the Spread.
- Euribor: The base rate set by European markets.
- Spread: The bank's profit margin, typically 0.7% to 1.5% for strong profiles.
Fixed Rates are also available, offering stability for 1, 2, 5, 10, or even up to 30 years. Many clients prefer a mix (mixed-rate mortgage) starting with a fixed period before switching to variable.
Loan-to-Value for Non-Residents
Fiscal residents of Portugal may borrow up to 90% of the property value. For non-residents (including UK, US, and EU citizens living abroad), banks typically limit lending to:
- 60% to 70% LTV for most applicants.
- 75% to 80% LTV for exceptional financial profiles.
This means you will typically need a deposit of at least 20% to 30%, plus funds for taxes and fees.
Taxes and Fees When Buying
Beyond the monthly payment, budget roughly 6% to 10% of the purchase price for:
- IMT (Property Transfer Tax): Variable scale depending on price.
- Stamp Duty (Imposto de Selo): 0.8% of the price.
- Legal & Notary Fees: Typically 1-2%.
Why Use a Broker?
Going direct to one bank limits your options. We submit your application to all major Portuguese lenders and present the best offers side by side — including interest rates, spreads, and insurance costs. Our service is free for you (banks pay our commission).

Frequency Asked Questions
Common questions about getting a mortgage in Portugal as a non-resident.
To reach an approval it takes between 1-3 weeks subject to the loan amount. Once approved the bank account can be opened and a valuation requested.
Up to 80% of the purchase can be obtained subject to affordability.
Yes. Portuguese banks actively lend to US citizens.
Depends on which bank we approach as some banks have offices in countries worldwide who certify the information. Otherwise you maybe be asked to translate documents.
You will need to provide 3 years tax returns, which will show salary, dividends and they will also consider rental income. If you have a company you also need to provide 3 years company accounts
Banks normally require a Portuguese tax number (NIF) and a local account for the mortgage. We do not provide NIF or tax services — your lawyer or accountant can help with that. We focus on your mortgage: once a bank approves you, the account is opened as part of that process.
