After a halt on property sales due to the global economic crisis, the Algarve and Portugal are showing significant signs of recovery. Over the last 18 months, a low supply and increasing demand has meant that prices are starting to rise.
The number of UK residents interested in buying a holiday or retirement home overseas has increased dramatically over the past year.
To gain insight into which of the three countries most popular with buyers holds the best potential for both value and investment, Meravista.com has conducted a property market analysis of France and Spain against the Algarve region of Portugal.

Salema, near Lagos, is one of the maritime secrets of Portugal according to The Telegraph which again highlights a region of the Algarve as a holiday destination.
In an article published this Wednesday, the reporter Mary Lussiana praised Salema and the surrounding area:
If we offered this two-bedroom apartment for sale on Meravista.com for €1.4m, you’d be forgiven for thinking we were having a laugh.

Overseas investors are still in live with the American dream, TheMoveChannel.com's new Top of the Props report reveals.
Foreign buyers appeared to have woken up earlier this year, as demand for US property plummeted to an all-time low in February 2015.
