SEF: Evidence of Adequate Accommodation

Best talk to a immigration lawyer however we can add a couple thoughts:

The idea is that you're proving you have accommodation upon arrival, not owning something alone as - for example - we understand commercial properties don't count for a D7. (One of our previous tenants in the Alentejo encountered this problem.) That would imply somewhere that is unliveable in its current state, would not be permissible.

We understand CPCVs and possibly other proofs of a purchase processing being undertaken *do* count however, so perhaps a lawyer can advise: perhaps if letters from a construction company quoting certain completion dates that may suffice? It's an idea anyway, given the idea of a CPCV is that there is liveable accomodation in the near future, and you may fall into that category with other forms of evidence(?). We would be curious to know the answer to this to better our understanding of this less common situation.
