Agree with 1. Ban AirBnB. (this is already in play as I understand it) Silly tax incentives like Non-Habitual Residency have to go (done). 2. Actually already exists in the suburbs, but maybe now needs a bit of a make over. Of course the children of well-heeled Portuguese wouldn't stoop to live in such places while studying at University, but hey that's the world we live in! 3. The Golden Visa scheme is a nonsense (I think this is also being scrapped), but perhaps property taxes for places that are not the primary home might help with this.

> Agree with 1. Ban AirBnB. (this is already in play as I understand it) I believe no new licenses are being granted. Personally, I don't think this goes far enough. Revoke existing licenses. > The Golden Visa scheme is a nonsense (I think this is also being scrapped) IMHO this was an overreaction. If the issue was pricing out locals, you could simply remove real estate as a qualifying investment under the visa and/or increase the minimum investment amount.
