Spain has removed the golden visa, so please, go somewhere else to increase house prices and make local's life unbearable.

No one mentioned the anchovies of Portugal 😊

The zero inheritance tax in Portugal applies to property transfers between grandparents, parents, children, grandchildren. You erroneously mention that it also applies to siblings, which is not true.

The biggest difference is that on the entire Mediterranean coast you have 3 more months of summer than in Portugal. better weather and warmer water.

Jews are not allowed in Saudi Arabia without government permission.

Thanks to Expats for pressuring housing prices and rents, food prices. Stay in your country, come over for a holiday, and leave.

UE not interesting in the long term, because the agenda

Spain is declining. DO NOT buy it. Living in Spain actually sucks.

Agree 100% about the lack of friendliness of the Spanish. I have lived in Spain twice for work, and I found them quite unwelcoming and not at all friendly, especially to Latin Americans, with the males being particularly aggressive. There is lots of talk of how warm and friendly the Spanish are, but I did not perceive this at all.

Interesting! I found the food in Portugal less tasty in general; need more sauce, more spice. And true, it's easy to find Spanish restaurants but the only Portuguese restaurants are chicken rôtisseries, at least here in Australia

Tbf, Porto is not the easiest city to live imo. And it has more of that Celt vibe whereas the south is way different and much warmer too

This is not good time to come Portugal. Theirs all services are lazy and taxs are high then the opportunity. They just need money without given good services. If you want to make life hell welcome to Portugal

Would love to see this again for 2023 or 2024

For goodness sake, you both appear to be old enough to choose for what ever reason whether ? No doubt since I could be your grandfathers, so here it is stay put in your country of origin and make the most of it. You do not have anything to contribute to eithert pais.

As the parents of a young child, you may not have experienced the educational system yet, but I think this would also be a very valid consideration for families.

Cars are more expensive, tolls, gas, in Portugal. Property tax on purchase is higher in Spain 🇪🇸

Portugal has become too expensive, and that is difficult to deal with...

I lived in Rua da Boavista for 10 years! Bought it in 2010 and when I left in 2019 the prices in the area had doubled! One of the best streets of Porto; very close to downtown and subway.

It isn't.

No vengais más..please

Excellent video. Thank you very much!

I stopped seeing when they classified Spanish food better than Portuguese... Its the only think we Portuguese are probably better at :D

this did not age well

sorry to hear about Pincho. meanwhile, this is the first time i see someone in the world saying their rent decreased from the former year, it is unbelieveable especially in portugal where evreyone is complaining about it.

what about porto vs san sebastian , is porto more expensive ?

I think Portugal is not unique at all. In most european countries (at least central and eastern for sure), for severe cases You rely on public health care. You would never be able to get it through private one, even if You have a private medical insurance. It is too expensive, simply. Only rich people, I mean CEOs of large companies, would be able to afford a surgery at a private hospital. On the other hand- if You are waiting for an expert's consultation (like dermatologist, gastrologist, oncologist etc.) You usually wait for weeks, if not months. In some countries for some experts Ypu have to wait a few years (In Poland f.e.). So You either end up in a public hospital (in a very severe state) or just go to private specialists. That is how it works in many european countries.

porto vs san sebastian ?

tax is so much BS - especially in Portugal

petrol, cars, motorway, trains clothing, rents in porto and lisbon eletricity, internet...more expensive in portugal than spain and lower salaries in pt.

Thank you

Thank you very much for watching. One annotation we want to make that we missed in the edit is that the Beckham law tax rate is 24% and not 28%. Which country are you looking at moving to? Portugal or Spain?

Mallorca is the best place on earth because it is the legit Promised Land but people werent supposed to know this until the end of times(now)that's why people had to have the spiritual awakening because they werent taught the truth/real history in school.We are in the age of aquarius which is when the truth would be revealed.Having an open mind is vital and a blessing.Freedom is coming.

Beckham law is at 24%, not 28%. But the big advantage of beckham law is that you dont report foreign income. So a person who is receiving rental income or dividend income from outside of spain, doesnt even report it.

We bailed on Spain even though we have a 2 year Iberoamericano fast track route to a passport the effective tax rate for us would have been > 60%

I really appreciate the stats and Data that you and others puts together for us daily but I find some analysis really poor and quite childish. The whole notion of predictable market cycles based around inflation adjustments is laughable. The price of Bitcoin is far more closely correlated with the Dow Index and broader macro economics. We have 19.6 million BTC already in circulation with a highly liquid market of 24 hour buyers and sellers. Only the miners care if 900 or 450 new coins are coming out each day, everyone else just trades the millions already circulating. Take any kind of analysis based on "Past Cycles" with a kilo of salt....managed to grow a nest egg of around 100k to a decent 432k in the space of a few months... I'm especially grateful to Renee Gilman, whose deep expertise and traditional trading acumen have been invaluable in this challenging, ever-evolving financial landscape.

yes, go to Spain please, we are overwelm with tourists.

I remember seeing this guy when he appeared on RTP. I'm still not sure what his actual credentials are, but he lost me when he used Condé Nast as a reference. He seems to be really good at finding opportunities for self-promotion, though.

Great info, Josh! So very helpful to many!

Been in Portugal for two years and does not speak the language... brazilian boyfriend and speaks english with him... friends speak english with her... someone is having serious effort problems... in no country people are as receptive to foreigners and in no country people adapt as much to people from abroad, but this kind of lack of effort is almost insulting. If she does not speak the language it is not because of lack of oportunities. Someone seriously needs to change habits, I would say. If it was in Spain or France people would outright refuse to speak english, even if they know the language. Only proves that being nice does not help nice people.

Lol, truth, so many Americans thinking that Portugal was a small island in South America.. oh well lol.

Loved the video! I'm from Porto born and raised and the weather is still a culture shock for me 😅.

Teresa y Urraca.................

sooo my advice is... move to raia....anywhere close to the border.......

You always release great content! Any chance you might do a video (or a few) for people who don't have US Citizenship and want to do the opposite, move there as a retiree, remote worker, self employed etc? Thanks for sharing more information with us, nonetheless. Have a lovely Mother's Day weekend!

A couple of points that are worth noting is that the transfer tax in Spain is on average quite a bit higher than the (IMT) "transfer tax" in Portugal. In addition, many larger areas in Spain have high yearly taxes associated with the city where you own your property as well as the region or county. For example my wife and I bought a place in Portugal for about 50k more than a property my friend ahd I had bought together in Spain and we paid about 7k more on the cheaper property in Spain in regards to the taxes associated with the purchase including the transfer tax.

Very informative! Though I wanted to point out that the Beckham Law's cap is 24%, not 28%. And regarding the lenght, it used to be 5 years and there were rumors that it would be extended to 10 years, but in the end I got it for 6 years when I applied in the middle of 2023, so not sure how it would be if you were to apply today.

Thank you

I am Cypriot which country will best suit my lifestyle and culture do you think?

Property is Spain is a lot cheaper. Spanish people can be friendly if you speak their language. I lived in both countries. Spain wins, hands down. Honestly; I believe the real reason why most Americans perfer Portugal is because they don't want to learn Portuguese. In Spain, unless you live in Marbella or around Alicante, you must learn Spanish.
