No municipal suspension, containment area or AL regulation found in the Diário da República or in the câmara's published notices for 2025-2026, and no national or regional suspension applies in Madeira. This rests on not finding a measure, not on a document stating there is none; confirm with the câmara before you rely on it.

Buyer notes
Proximity to Funchal plus coastal prestige. Landslide risk is real on steep inland plots - Curral das Freiras parish in particular. Always pull the hazard overlay before committing on terraced or cliff-adjacent lots.
Flagship areas
Before offering. The price per m² is INE's median for homes sold in the concelho over twelve months, all types together; a given street or building can sit far from it. AL status depends on the current municipal câmara decision under DL 76/2024 - verify via the câmara website before relying on it. Always cross-check with a Portuguese property lawyer.
