What I do

Four ways I'm most useful

You are making a large decision a long way from home. Whether you are buying, selling or investing, you need somebody here who will tell you the truth about the house in front of you and then handle the parts that happen in Portuguese.

01

Luxury Property Buying

I sit on your side of the table from the first shortlist to the deed. I will tell you when a house is overpriced and what it costs to hold each year, and I negotiate in Portuguese.

  • A shortlist built from how you want to live
  • Off-market houses, where they exist
  • Viewings around your travel, or filmed for you
  • Negotiation, promissory contract and deed
02

Property Sales & Marketing

I prepare and photograph the house before it goes near a portal, then take it to the buyers already looking in your area. An overseas buyer asks different questions than a Lisbon one, starting with whether a foreigner can get a mortgage here at all.

  • Pricing built from completed sales
  • Styling and photography before anything goes live
  • Listing copy written for a foreign buyer
  • Quiet, off-market sales if you prefer
03

International Buyer & Relocation Advisory

This part decides whether the move goes well, and most agencies leave it out. You are choosing a town, a school and a doctor before you choose an address.

  • A driving tour of Cascais, Sintra and Estoril
  • Schools, doctors, and how long each commute takes
  • A rental for the first year, if you want one
  • Introductions to lawyers, tax advisors and mortgage brokers

04

Real Estate Investment Advisory

You see the numbers before you commit. Rental figures for that street by season, and a builder's estimate for the work you already spotted on the viewing.

  • Second homes and renovation projects
  • Yields I would put my own money on
  • Contractors, designers, and someone checking the work
  • Property management once it is finished
Also included

The rest of it

You get these as part of the work. Over time they add up to somebody in Portugal you can call about anything.

  • Neighbourhood orientation
  • Rental assistance
  • Mortgage broker introductions
  • Attorneys & tax advisors
  • Insurance providers
  • Contractors & designers
  • Property management
  • Schools & healthcare guidance
  • Transport & getting around
  • Settling into the community

Tell me what you're imagining

The first call costs nothing and commits you to nothing. Some of my clients booked one two years before they bought.
