Learn how to invest in Portugal property, not just buy one.
So you can make better decisions for yourself, instead of guessing.
Free for the founding cohort, by application only — we're looking for fit, not just filling seats. Every group after this one will be paid.
This isn't a course on how to buy a house
Anyone can look up what a caderneta predial is. What actually matters is knowing how to answer questions like these: is this property actually a good investment, is €450,000 expensive or cheap for what it is, and what return can you realistically expect.
And because a good investment plan is useless if you can't actually execute it, Bloom Academy also gives you the practical tools: whether you can get a mortgage in Portugal as a foreigner, what the banks actually require, and the real steps from a first idea to a signed deed. You leave knowing how to think like an investor and how to run the whole purchase yourself.
Real return after taxes, financing, renovation and vacancy — not just the listing price.
Personal or company purchase, how much cash you actually need, which neighbourhoods fit your goal.
How to analyse a listing, negotiate, spot the traps, and know when to walk away.
Can you actually get a mortgage in Portugal, what documents and deposit you'll need, and the real steps from a first idea to a signed deed.

Bloom Community

8 years. Hundreds of buyers.
I'm Camille, founder of Bloom Spaces. I've spent 8 years as a buyer's agent here, helping hundreds of people find and buy property in Portugal.
Along the way I kept seeing the same thing: the hard part was never finding a place. It was knowing what you actually wanted, and whether the numbers behind it made sense.
The property is never the hard part. Knowing what you actually want is.
Whatever your budget, if you're ready to learn
Starting out
You have around €150k and want to make your first move — carefully.
Building a portfolio
You're planning several properties over the next ten years and want a real strategy.
A second home that works
You want a home you'll actually use, that also works as an investment.
Foreigners and Portuguese nationals both welcome. What matters is that you're ready to learn, not guess.
A few questions you might have
Is this the same as Bloom Spaces?
Bloom Academy is Bloom Spaces' sister project. Bloom Spaces helps you find and buy a property once you know what you want. Bloom Academy teaches you how to get to that point.
Is this in English?
Yes, the course and calls are in English to start.
How much time does it take?
Around 8 weeks of one module and one live call per week, then 6 months of ongoing access if you continue into the coaching phase.
Who are the guest experts?
A small recurring set of specialists — a mortgage expert, a property lawyer, and an architect or renovation expert — who teach live inside the class alongside Camille.
Do I need a big budget to join?
No. This is for you whatever your budget, as long as you're ready to learn how to make the decision properly.
What will it cost after the founding cohort?
The founding cohort is free and capped at 10 to 15 people. Every cohort after this one will be a paid program — pricing will be announced once this pilot is complete. Founding members get early access and preferred pricing on anything that comes after.
Will everyone who applies get in?
No. The founding cohort is capped at 10 to 15 people, and every application is reviewed. We're looking for people whose situation and goals genuinely fit the program, not just filling seats. Apply as early as you can — spots are limited and this is a waitlist, not open sign-up.
The first cohort is free. The next one won't be.
