Serviced apartments are the future of flexible living

Our apartments are secured with the touristic license, ensuring compliance with short-term rental regulations. Each apartment comes fully furnished and ready for use.
Which services will I have access to?
Serviced apartments are the future of flexible living
The services you have access to depend on whether your apartment is in a Clubhouse or a House. Contact us for specific details about the services available in each project.
What is the payment plan?
The payment plan varies depending on the project but generally involves installments. There is a €10,000 reservation fee to block the apartment, initiating the due diligence period (typically 2-4 weeks). After this period, the Promissory Sales and Purchase Agreement (PSPA) is signed, followed by several installments depending on the project’s complexity and construction phase.
What is the management fee?
Instead of a traditional management fee, serviced apartments typically operate under a revenue-sharing model. Ando covers the majority of the costs, and the revenue is split between the owner and Ando.
Can I sell my property? When and to whom? Do I have to sell through Ando?
You are free to sell your property to anyone, at any time, even selling your position in the Promissory Sales and Purchase Agreement. You are not required to sell through Ando Living; however, if you choose to, we can act as your real estate broker.
How do I reserve an apartment?
To reserve an apartment, sign the reservation agreement and submit €10,000 to the designated bank account.
Are there any storage options?
We are working on a solution for storage, allowing owners to leave personal belongings when they are not using their apartment.
What is the difference between a touristic license and an AL license?
In Portugal, a short-term rental license (AL license) applies to residential properties for individual apartments, granted by Tourism of Portugal, but has faced scrutiny and restrictions. Ando Living apartments have a touristic license, which is granted to the entire building and protects owners from losing the license, ensuring compliance and stability.
