I want to rent a 2-bedroom in Lisbon, budget 1500 EUR/month.
Solid budget for Lisbon, but the market tightened post-2022. Realistic in Marvila, Beato, Areeiro. Tougher in Principe Real or Chiado without flexibility. Are you working remotely from Portugal or relocating with a Portuguese employer? That affects the dossier you need.
Is buying in Madrid a smart move in 2026?
Centro and Salamanca are at 7-8k EUR/m^2 with low rental yield. For investment, look at Carabanchel, Vallecas, or Tetuan: 3.5-4.5k EUR/m^2 with 5-6% gross yield. Are you targeting capital appreciation, rental income, or a primary residence?
