Real estate therefore remains an important investment vehicle for many. In a recently published market trends reportSavills, published in the fourth quarter of 2024, predicted global realate investments in 2025 by 7 percent to $ 952 billion.

Is there really more demand for sustainable assets and properties?

Some of the world's leading institutes carry out strict studies to determine the effects of sustainability on investment strategies. In her report “Sustainable Signals” published in 2024, the Morgan Stanley Institute for Sustainable Investments and Morgan Stanley Wealth Management stated that 57 percent of the individual investors were of the opinion that their interest in sustainable investments had increased in the past two years, while more than 70 percent of practice could lead to a higher return with a higher return.

Therefore, the majority of our buyers put more sustainability, which leads to a number of positive side effects.

How developers react

While the global real estate markets are as diverse as possible, the global goal for a greener future has triggered a shift into a common goal: to put the creation and development of sustainable houses at the top of the construction work.

In Portugal, our relationship with environmentally friendly construction methods decreases centuries because traditional houses made of local materials have already shown an understanding and respect for the environment. While the use of local materials is still a focus, modern technology has enabled the architect to create a new generation of sustainable houses.

It is important to remember that sustainable properties go beyond financial profits. At Ombria Algarve we are proud to support the local flora and fauna as well as the well -being of our buyers and residents. Our properties convince with their sustainable characteristics, but are complete with amenities that support a balanced lifestyle that is harmonized with nature.
