Affordable Housing in the spotlight at the Portugal RE Summit

Affordable Housing in the spotlight at the Portugal RE Summit

The largest property investment event in Iberia is returning to the Hotel Palácio Estoril from 23 to 24 September. The 8th edition of the Portugal Real Estate Summit takes place in another year where global uncertainty hasn’t dissipated, but the Portuguese economy is recording positive figures, growing faster than the European average and justifying the interest of international investors.

The major real estate players will have a privileged opportunity to network and discuss the main trends and best opportunities in the sector in the various regions, in a lively programme of conferences and parallel sessions.

The country's sustainable economic growth will be highlighted on the first day of the Portugal Real Estate Summit, through the hand of the former governor of the Portuguese Central Bank, Carlos Costa.

On the other hand, as Housing is the hottest topic across Europe the session “FROM AFFORDABLE HOUSING TO NEW LIVING MODELS” will explore public-private partnerships, how to develop new Living Concepts and the emerging market of Build to Rent in Portugal.

In the European context, Portugal is one of the countries with the greatest potential for expansion in the living sector, given the lack of real estate stock of this nature as compared to the strong demand. This imbalance is evident in any of the sub-segments of these rental housing models. As has been seen in many European countries, Portugal is currently facing a shortage of residential supply, especially affordable housing for the middle-income households.

For the effect, a joint presentation by SAVILLS & JLL will introduce the topic, to which will follow the interventions of Lisbon and Oporto municipalities. A roundtable of investors will close the theme, specifically Alberto Nin Garaizabal, Managing Director at Brookfield Asset Management; Manuel Ibáñez, Head of Real Estate Iberia at DWS; Hilke Nijmeijer, Senior Portfolio Residential Manager at CBRE IM; Christopher Hütwohl, CEO of Nook 42; and Marten Foxon, Head of Hospitality at Arrow Global, will share their views on the first day of the Portugal Real Estate Summit.
