Buying in Viseu usually means a transaction around €125,000 for a standard apartment — enough at stake to do the checks properly. In the Viseu area, the close-up checks are older urban stock with missing usage permits, rústico-versus-urbano land classification, and co-ownership that comes with inherited property. Wherever the property is, a lawyer here confirms clean title at the Land Registry (Conservatória), that the caderneta predial and usage permit match what's actually built, and that no debts or charges are attached before you sign the CPCV.
