How do I find a place to live in Funchal?
We asked expats how they chose their neighborhood and found a place to live. They answered:
"To find a place to live in Funchal, you can start by researching online on popular real estate websites such as Idealista, OLX, and Imovirtual, where you can filter your search based on your preferences like location, budget, and property type. You can also join local Facebook groups dedicated to housing and rentals in Funchal, where people often post available properties and recommendations. Another option is to visit local real estate agencies in Funchal, where you can speak with a professional agent who can help you find a suitable place based on your requirements. They can also provide valuable information about the local housing market and assist with the rental or purchase process. Additionally, you can explore local newspapers and classified ads for property listings. This can be a good way to find private landlords who may not advertise on the larger websites. Lastly, consider asking friends, family, or colleagues who live in Funchal for recommendations or referrals. They may know of available properties or have connections with local landlords and real estate agents," explained one person living in Funchal, Portugal.
