Building in The Algarve

Building your own villa has always been a popular choice when it comes to owning a home in the Algarve. We always have a fabulous selection of building plots available ranging from 1,000 to 10,000 sqm, most with a minimum of outline planning consent, and some with full, detailed planning, ready to build.

Our staff at Realsol can help you through the entire process, from choosing your plot, to planning applications, appointing architects and builders, right the way through to landscaping and furnishing.

A few vital things to remember

• Always use a licenced estate agent and lawyer to help you through the process
• Ensure your builder has a registered engineer to oversee the project
• Always insist on building a a damp proof course and ensure that roofs are well drained
• On completion of the project ensure your agent or architect has applied for and obtains a habitation certificate

Building a property in a foreign country may seem a daunting prospect, but by choosing the right people for the right tasks will ensure a trouble free build.
