Deed 2026/4471
Rua do Século 68
Three bedrooms over two floors, listed in April at a number the street had never reached. Five months, two reductions and eleven viewings later, it signed 11.4% under the first asking price — and still 6% above the district median per m².
Priced against two comparables that had themselves sold over asking the previous autumn.
Six weeks, nine viewings, no offer. The seller took 6.1% off rather than wait out the summer.
A cash buyer opened 15% below the original figure, with completion inside six weeks.
Split the difference at €1 085 000 — the number the deed would eventually carry.
Deed signed at the notary in Lisbon. 148 days from listing, 11.4% under the first asking price.

Half of everything we complete signs inside thirty days of first viewing. The long tail is almost entirely probate and shared-ownership files.
