Across Europe, a small group of coastal destinations sit in a league of their own.
Cannes…Antibes…Portofino…Puerto Banús…
Places where historic centers, marinas, beaches, and luxury real estate come together to create a world-class lifestyle…and attract the world’s most affluent folks.
It’s rare for a new destination to break into this elite group. But right now, one town on Portugal’s Algarve coast is doing exactly that…
It’s the same town that I’m scouting right now. And the place where I’m about to bring an exclusive new deal to my Real Estate Trend Alert group.
I’ve just released my video deep-dive on this stunning destination in the new episode of The Ronan McMahon Report.
Click below to watch it now. And when you’re done, share your thoughts or questions in the comments. My team and I read them all.
In this new deep-dive on my YouTube channel, I take you to my favorite beach town on the Algarve. Click to view…
I’m talking about Lagos, Portugal.
I’ve been scouting this town for over a decade. For years, it remained somewhat overlooked. While other parts of the Algarve saw heavy tourism development, Lagos preserved its character—a walkable old town, dramatic cliffs, and some of Europe’s finest beaches.
In the early 2000s, a modern highway cut the travel time from the airport serving the area in Faro to under an hour.
Access improved—but the real shift came later, in the 2010s…
That’s when Portugal emerged as one of Europe’s most welcoming destinations for international residents.
The buyers coming to Portugal weren’t just looking for short stays anymore. They wanted towns where they could live part and full-time.
Lagos was perfect for this.
Over the past decade, affluent buyers have flooded in. And now Lagos is entering a new phase.
Hundreds of millions of euros are flowing into the town. Global hospitality brands are arriving. Luxury developments are reshaping the marina district.
And yet, compared to Europe’s most established coastal hotspots, prices remain accessible.
Watch my new video to learn:
- How Lagos has evolved from a two-month summer destination into a sought-after livable community with year-round rental demand.
- Why major international investors and luxury hospitality brands are committing hundreds of millions of euros to Lagos…and what that means for its future…
- How strict planning rules, limited land supply, and rising international demand are creating powerful upward pressure on prices…
It’s all in my new video.

Wishing you good real estate investing,
P.S. As I say, I’m about to bring RETA members an exclusive new opportunity in Lagos. It’s a boutique community of just 40 luxury condos, a short walk from one of the world’s best beaches.
With the exceptional RETA-only pricing I’ve negotiated, I expect gains of €255,000 five years after delivery.
And once the community is established, I expect gross rental income of a little over €61,500 a year on a two-bed—a yield of just over 10%.
Portuguese bank financing amplifies the opportunity further, with foreign buyers able to borrow up to 70% with current rates as low as 2.7%.
Opportunities in Lagos are getting very hard to find and this could well be the last.
I’ll open this deal exclusively to RETA members on Wednesday, July 1 at 1 p.m. ET.
