Buy Property with
Crypto in Portugal.
Licensed escrow for crypto-to-real-estate transactions in Portugal. BTC, ETH, and USDT accepted. Full KYC/KYT on both parties. Deed transfer triggers fund release.
Europe's most active crypto property market.
Portugal combines a stable legal framework, a transparent notarisation system, and one of Europe's most progressive attitudes toward crypto capital. The Portuguese Civil Code governs all real estate transactions — including those settled with digital assets. Both parties must complete full KYC. Source of funds is verified through KYT screening on all incoming crypto. The notary records the title transfer and Brik releases funds only on confirmed deed execution.
