What does property cost in Porto Moniz?

Every figure in this section comes from INE and is shown with its own reference period. The sold-price and bank-valuation series are listed in the public data registry with full provenance. The dwellings-sold bars print their source, INE indicator code and licence under the chart. Sold prices and the count of dwellings sold come from INE’s house-price statistics; the bank-valuation figure is INE’s median valuation used by credit institutions.

What are the rules and costs in Porto Moniz?

Prices tell you what it costs to buy in Porto Moniz; the rules and costs below tell you what governs a purchase and what it costs to hold.

Two rules shape most purchases here — whether a property can be let short-term, and what it costs to hold each year — followed by the guides and calculator to model your full purchase.

Can you run a short-term rental here?

Short-term letting (Alojamento Local, AL) is regulated at the municipal level in Porto Moniz, as it is across Portugal: the national Alojamento Local regime (Decreto-Lei 128/2014, as amended) sets registration and operating requirements, while each câmara municipal can designate zonas de contenção that suspend or restrict new AL registrations. Restriction status varies by municipality and by parish, and changes over time.

This is general information, not legal advice — confirm the current status for a specific address with the Porto Moniz câmara municipal before assuming a property can be operated as AL.

What about annual property tax (IMI)?

Municipal Property Tax (IMI) is levied annually by the Porto Moniz council within a band set nationally, so the exact rate depends on the municipality and the property’s taxable value (VPT). We do not print a rate we cannot source: any specific figure we publish is drawn from the official register with its reference year, never estimated here.

To model the full acquisition cost — IMT, stamp duty and the recurring IMI — for a specific Porto Moniz purchase, use the cost calculator linked below.

Common questions about Porto Moniz

How much does property cost per square metre in Porto Moniz?
In Porto Moniz, the median transacted (sold) price is about €1,490 per square metre (1st Quarter 2026). Source: Instituto Nacional de Estatística (INE), Portugal, CC BY 4.0.
How much of Porto Moniz's property is mapped in the national land register?
In Porto Moniz, about 6.9% of the município's property tax-matrices have been georeferenced in the national land register through eBUPi (Balcão Único do Prédio) (eBUPi flow, 2024-03..2026-09). This is a data-coverage signal — how many property records have been precisely located on the map — not a measure of how much land is buildable, not a claim about who owns the land, and not a price. That is 1,900 of 27,505 registered tax-matrices. Source: eBUPi — Balcão Único do Prédio, CC BY 4.0 (eBUPi / dados.gov.pt).

We publish a number only when the warehouse can source it. Many of the series shown here, including the sold-price and bank-valuation medians, are listed in the public data registry with their official sources, reference periods and licences. The dwellings-sold bars in the price chart print their source, INE indicator code and licence under the chart.
