Brits seeking their own Portugal property place in the sun may want to attend an exhibition advising them on all aspects of their potential purchase.

A Place In The Sun Live, based on the popular Channel 4 programme, will showcase thousands of holiday hideaways at the NEC in Birmingham from October 2nd-4th, with a special Portugal Pavilion for those particularly interested in Portugal property.

A Place in the Sun editor Richard Way tells homesgofast.com: "The balmy year-round climate, unspoilt beaches and world-class golf have maintained the Algarve’s popularity as a favourite second home destination with Brits.

‘And interest is now spreading to the Silver Coast, north of Lisbon, where a number of eco-friendly low-density developments overlooking the sweeping Atlantic beaches and close to cosy traditional towns are proving popular.’

Over 40 possible holiday home countries will be featured, including Italy property, French property and Spanish property, with prices to suit every budget, ranging from £20,000 to over £1 million.

Travel agents Thomson and First Choice recently claimed that short-haul holidays to Portugal property are as popular as ever with sun-seeking Brits, despite the economic downturn.
