Expressing Plans with "Ir + Infinitive"
Talk about moving plans:
- Vou mudar de casa no próximo mês. (I'm going to move next month.)
- Vamos procurar um apartamento maior. (We're going to look for a bigger flat.)
"Precisar de" for Housing Needs
- Preciso de um apartamento com dois quartos. (I need a two-bedroom flat.)
- Precisamos de um andar com elevador. (We need a floor with a lift.)
Describing a Property
Use ser for permanent features and ter for what it includes:
- O apartamento é espaçoso e luminoso. (The flat is spacious and bright.)
- Tem dois quartos e uma varanda. (It has two bedrooms and a balcony.)
- Fica no terceiro andar. (It's on the third floor.)
Portuguese Floor Numbering
In Portugal, floor counting starts differently:
- Rés do chão (R/C) = ground floor
- 1.º andar = first floor (= 2nd floor in US)
- Cave = basement
Tip: In Lisbon, apartments are often in old buildings without lifts. Always ask "Tem elevador?" (Does it have a lift?).

Pago renda de 800 eurosPago uma renda de 800 eurosUse the indefinite article 'uma' before 'renda' with a specific amount
Vou procurar por um apartamentoVou procurar um apartamento'Procurar' is a direct transitive verb; no preposition 'por' needed
