Why Rent In Portugal Is Out Of Control Right Now | Home tour

[@yourthaiguy]

You need to consider Vietnam Daphna! Your expenses are half of what your paying now and it's a beautiful country....

[@johnbruenn8755]

I hear you have to get out of the cities to find more affordable housing. Italy the same way. Now that I’m retired, it’s time to explore these places!

[@Daphna.]

thanks for writing this and for being here ❤️ ❤️

[@rabukan5842]

Thank you for the info. Daphna! You answer my questions before I think to ask them. And I am a poet who likes quiet people :)

[@Daphna.]

thank you so much for this❤️YOU are the best

[@rabukan5842]

@@Daphna. No, you are my friend ♥

[@alko_xo]

Am I right in thinking that Portugal has never heard of solar panels, home battery packs, micro-grids and sustainable energy surpluses for free electricity, cooling and heating? Is it all down to the luck of sunny days in Portugal?

[@megcreates2.0]

What made you choose Portugal in the first place vs Italy or Spain?

[@actionvj]

Do newer buildings like yours lack installation as well?

[@Daphna.]

Yes!

[@paul_domici]

Algarve seems like a wonderful place!!!

[@BLaw707]

Very nice place, especially being within walking distance to the beach.

[@robertchavez5647]

Daphna what is your accent? It sounds like Italian and is mesmerizing for your videos! Makes viewers stick to your message!

[@Daphna.]

omg thanks for writing that ❤️❤️❤️

[@tages_matuna]

Agree about her accent , it works for me very well, I could listen to her for hours

[@marijacorluka5411]

Hi Daphna, come to Croatia, I think it i cheaper than Portugal and you still have meditterean country with a lot of sun. You can come to any of teh islands, major cities are Rijeka, Zadar, Split and are cheaper than Lisbon, also Zagreb...

[@Daphna.]

ohhhh I wanna visit! thanks so much for this tip❤️❤️❤️

[@NigelHyphenJones]

It’s about supply and demand, as always. In Northern Europe, prices are even higher.

[@rs8319]

Your place is beautiful. Thank you for sharing, very interesting details. I am thinking about changing location longterm, but there is a lot to consider. Was this the place you need to move out from?

[@Daphna.]

Yes❤️

[@rs8319]

@ Fingers crossed for you to find something at least equally beautiful! 🍀🍀🍀🍀

[@alittleheavenonearth]

I love how she says portugal 🇵🇹 😅

[@Daphna.]

❤️❤️❤️

[@rachelkieffer8707]

Our plan is to never pay rent again so we will purchase an apartment in Porto (Lisbon is out of our price range). I am in New York City (3 years away from retiring in Portugal) and if you think the rent is out of control in Portugal... I just did a quick search for a 2 bedroom rental and the prices are about $9,000 and go up to $50,000 A MONTH!!! I will be in Porto for a 1 month stay next November and I can't wait to get to know the city that will be my future home.

[@Daphna.]

Wishing you a lovely 2025🎊🍾

[@BubbleInThePond]

Hi Daphna, thank you for all the information. Would you be willing to share the rent you pay for this type of appartment? It is only to get an idea, if it is not too personal.

[@Nancy20012]

she said 2000 euros a month I think

[@loisphillips3786]

Another great video, def a fan now. Have you been to Sicily Italy to stay, where in Italy were you based as I def want to spend more time there in future. Where is you home country please? Are you French please? Keep the great advice coming & take care ❤

[@Daphna.]

Sicily is on my bucket list 🇮🇹 I'm really grateful you are here sending you a big hug❤️❤️❤️

[@annaartesana2622]

Why dont you ever answer your viewers questions? You seem very evasive and secretive which does not inspire confidence.

[@samirhamaidia1357]

Hi i just subscribed to your channel i am expart living in spain .

[@Daphna.]

Hello hello❤️❤️❤️

[@samirhamaidia1357]

@Daphna. Hi, nice to hear from you as well . I wish you a Happy New Year 2025.

[@lisabeaumont]

What a pointless video! The title has nothing whatsoever to do with the (lack of useful) content.

[@SophiaTell-HelpsAll]

Agree...😂

[@tages_matuna]

I really like your accent

[@Daphna.]

❤️

[@janithwickramasinghe1780]

Come to Sri Lanka. $1500 per month will be more than enough to live.

[@IzzyOnTheMove]

3k for a 2ba is very cheap compared to America prices...

[@CeliaRibeiro-eu9mv]

This video has nothing to do with the title. If rents in Portugal are now out of control it’s because of people like you who come to Portugal with your money, invest in real estate and then make it impossible for the Portuguese to live in their OWN country!

[@lisabeaumont]

Absolutely. I lived in and around Lisbon for 4 years (2019-2022) and the reality is that the locals absolutely HATE the foreigners and they show it clearly in their disdainful faces in the streets, and say it very openly in facebook groups - they certainly don't hold back! Portugal has had its day for foreigners. Rents are through the roof and good luck finding a reliable builder to do up some old ruin unless you've got a bottomless pit of money, all the time in the world, and a project manager who is onto them every single day. Also, she's lying/wrong about Non-Habitual Residency - it most certainly does NOT apply to every foreigner AND it finished in 2024. Also, taxes are crazy which includes compulsory social security tax - and if you're an American you pay taxes in your own country AND in Portugal as there's no double-tax treaty. This video is nothing more than a "look at my radiant self" brag presumably in the hopes her ex-husband will see it.

[@nancytrekker]

Great info, Daphne. Nice apartment, and the fact that it was furnished makes things simple for you. ❤

[@Daphna.]

sending you lots of love from Portugal Xxx

[@isabellagalea3170]

Why do you not buy your own home. Instead of paying off someone else's loan pay your own!

[@Daphna.]

I prefer investing in high-yield properties that cover my rent instead of buying a home. It gives me more flexibility and passive income

[@isabellagalea3170]

@Daphna. 💜

[@kimberlyray3687]

Here in Santa Barbara, California the average 2 bed apartment is $3,000 a month.

[@NigelHyphenJones]

But you can drive to nearby LA and first cheap accommodation in comparison, so it depends on the town or city, like anywhere in the world. Try London or New York, then you will know what high rent is. A studio shoe box (20 sq meters) will cost you $ 3000 per month in a reasonable area of London.

[@TravelwithMAK.]

I have subscribed your channel 🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@Stucatz911]

Do you need a roommate?

[@Daphna.]

I’ll have to decline, but keep spreading the love and the positivity😊
