Santarém district Property Prices, Rents & Rental Yields

About Santarém district

Santarém district follows the Tagus through historic towns, riverside landscapes and agricultural plains. Beyond the city of Santarém, smaller centres give the district a varied geographic setting, so an apartment listing here sits within a wider regional picture rather than a single town.

In October 2026, the clearest signal for apartments is the gap between rising sale prices and softer recent rents. Average sale prices are up 13.4% year on year, while average rents are down 5.3% month on month. These changes cover different periods and should not be read as a direct comparison of annual purchase prices and rental income. Still, their opposing directions put the rental side of an investment under scrutiny. Price growth alone cannot establish whether an individual apartment will generate income consistent with its purchase price.

The average apartment sale price is €270,000, and the reported gross yield is 4.2%. That yield is a market benchmark rather than a return any particular purchase can be expected to deliver; costs and periods without rent can change the result. Sale prices are unchanged from the preceding month, so the latest reading adds no further monthly increase to the annual gain. For an investor assessing a listing, the practical question is how its achievable rent compares with its total purchase cost. October’s figures support a careful check of that relationship, not an assumption that stronger annual sale prices mean stronger near-term rental income.
