<h5>Algarve Villas Entice Investors Away From Spain</h5>
Wise planning choices have given Algarve, Portugal the edge over Spain in terms of property investment demand. While the rest of the European real estate market dwindled last year, the Portuguese government retained tight control over construction in the country’s Southern coastal area.
