FAQ

Frequently asked questions
What is Confidencial Imobiliário?

Confidencial Imobiliário (CI) is an independent databank. It is the only source in Portugal of statistical information supported by actual transaction prices and residential property lease agreements. It also produces systematic information on new real estate projects in the pipeline.

What services can I get?

CI produces several databases that form the SIR platform. The real estate market, especially the residential market, is systematically covered and detailed information is provided, based on actual transaction values (prices, quantities, absorption rates, discounts, etc.). Information on the real estate pipeline (projects, licenses, and developments on the market) is also available. Finally, the editorial component, with almost 40 years of existence, continues to be a benchmark in the analysis of market dynamics.

What are the main advantages?

The main advantage is that the information produced is based on actual transaction data, namely CPCV, and is updated monthly. This allows for the production of various indicators, enabling a systematic and in-depth analysis of the market.

What geographical areas are covered?

The entire national territory is covered.

What is the “SIR Platform”?

All features and databases (SIR Offer and Sale, Micro SIR, SIR Local Accommodation, etc.) are brought together on an online platform. The “SIR Platform” is the combination of these features.

How can I subscribe to the SIR platform?

To subscribe to the SIR platform and its databases, fill out the form available on the website (“I want to be contacted”) or send an email to gestao@confidencialimobiliario.com. Our team will contact you shortly.

Can I subscribe to Micro-SIR separately?

No. Micro SIR allows for a very geographically focused search with a high level of segmentation. However, the other tools on the platform contribute other essential elements to complete the analysis (number of homes sold, areas, accumulated discount rate, time it takes for homes to sell, evolution over time, etc.), allowing for a systematic and integrated approach, with each module contributing in a complementary way to the result.

Do magazine subscriptions include access to databases?

No.

The magazine subscription only provides access to the editorial content and does not include access to other features, namely the databases included in the SIR platform. However, any subscription to the SIR platform also includes the magazine.

Can I try out the service?

Yes, you can access a demo version to get a first look at the main features. However, given the many features available, we recommend scheduling a demo session.

How much does it cost?

The cost of subscribing to the SIR platform varies depending on several variables, notably the geography covered and the subscription period, with longer subscriptions being rewarded. Our team will support you in finding the best solution for your specific needs.

How many visits can I have?

The subscription allows unlimited use by company employees who have an email address with the company domain (e.g., funcionario@empresa.pt), within the context of a responsible use policy.

Can I see the houses that have been sold on the platform?

In Portugal, it is not possible to publicly consult the houses sold, with their attributes (photographs, etc.). This type of information is only found on listing portals, but, of course, displaying offer values, which are usually very different from the final transaction values. On the SIR platform, it is possible to perform a very geographically focused search, with a high level of segmentation.

I am a real estate broker. Can I subscribe individually?

Generally speaking, no. However, in some circumstances this is possible. Fill out the form explaining your question. A member of our team will contact you shortly.

I am a private individual, can I subscribe?

No. The various services offered by CI are exclusively aimed at real estate professionals.

Does the service include training?

Yes. Training is an essential component for getting the most out of the various features, so there are several training options available, included in the subscription cost.
