Real estate gives municipalities 2.7 billion euros

Of the 308 existing municipalities, only 67 have financial independence equal to or greater than 50%. This is in a year in which municipal revenues rose by more than 1.1 billion euros compared to 2020, according to the Portuguese Municipalities Fiscal Yearbook published on Monday.

Tax revenues (up 10.4%) contributed significantly to this result, especially those related to real estate (IMI+IMT). In total, municipal property tax (IMI) and municipal transaction tax (IMT) revenues generated more than $2.7 billion in chamber coffers. The importance of this income is so significant that, for example, in the Lisbon Chamber, the collection of real estate sales tax (IMT) is 19% of the total collected throughout the country.

Fewer municipalities resort to bank debt, which is reflected in fewer liabilities per inhabitant. On average, each Portuguese owes 625 euros in debts taken on by their municipality. The municipality of Marinha Grande is the least indebted (€66.9 per inhabitant).
