    &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;With thousands of attendees through the doors from Friday to Sunday, the APITS Live Manchester event drew individuals eager to explore the prospect of moving abroad and acquiring a home in sunnier destinations. The exhibition featured stands from various European countries and beyond, including Spain, France, Portugal, Cyprus, Dubai, and Turkey.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Throughout the event, Ideal Homes Portugal&#39;s team of experts remained engaged with a constant flow of visitors, giving out plenty of current advice and insight on Portugal real estate and living in the Algarve.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Chris White, founder and CEO of Ideal Homes Portugal, remarked on the enduring interest in Portugal, particularly among UK residents post-Brexit. He noted a shift in perception, with people seemingly reassessing post-Covid-19 pandemic.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;“The appetite for Portugal is still there. People are returning from the UK after Brexit, and it no longer appears to be much of a concern. There is a sense that individuals are re-evaluating after the pandemic, and generally just want a better life somewhere safe and sunny”, says Chris White.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

    &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;He also highlighted the surprise among many visitors upon learning about Portugal&#39;s financing options of up to 80% and interest rates at 2.9%.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;All-in-all, it proved to be a successful few days for the Ideal Homes Portugal team.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;International property expert and business mentor Chris, alongside A Place in the Sun magazine editor Liz Rowlinson and other Portugal representatives, took the main stage to deliver a talk on &#39;Portugal Property – For a Holiday Home or Relocation&#39; to hundreds of attendees.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;The event also provided opportunities for Ideal Homes TV’s frontman John Baker-Malpas to reconnect with A Place in the Sun presenter Jasmine Harman, while Chris White engaged with record-setting British paralympian Lyndon Longhorne and Thai boxing champion and entrepreneur Teshi Cheema.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;A Place in the Sun Live Manchester marked the initial event on Ideal Homes Portugal’s 2024 calendar, with more international exhibitions on the horizon.
