## Browse by what matters to you

| Feature | Where to look | Good for |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **Sea view** | Altos de Trancoso, Terravista, Arraial d'Ajuda cliffs | Views, breeze, sunset decks |
| **Beach access** | Itapororoca, Rio da Barra, Praia do Espelho, Caraíva | Walk to the sand, rental demand |
| **Gated community** | Terravista, Altos de Trancoso and other condominiums | Security, maintenance, absentee owners |
| **Village living** | Quadrado & centre of Trancoso | Restaurants and shops on foot |

## Why gated communities suit international owners

Gated condominiums in Trancoso and Terravista offer 24-hour security, shared maintenance and often concierge or rental services. Homes are easy to lock up and leave between visits, and buyers usually find them simpler from a title and permits point of view.

## Before you buy

- Check the condominium rules on rentals, construction and fees.
- Confirm that the built area matches the approved plans and the *habite-se*.
- Budget 6–9% closing costs on top of the price.
- Review IPTU and condominium fees in your annual budget.
