Lisbon Specialists
Your buyer's agent in the heart of Lisbon
Expert, independent guidance for international buyers in Lisbon. Free for buyers — we work for you, not the seller.
What we do
Find the Right Property in Lisbon — Without the Stress
Buying property in Lisbon as an international buyer is genuinely complex — a legal process in a language you may not speak, a market where asking prices often bear little relation to what properties actually sell for, and the best apartments changing hands before they ever reach the portals.
We're an independent buyer's agent that handles the whole thing — market search, neighbourhood advice, price negotiation, legal and financial coordination, and settling in. Our fee is paid by the seller's side, so there is no cost to you. Our loyalty is yours alone.
Our model
Free for Buyers — Here's How It Works
In Portugal, agent fees are paid by the seller — typically 3–5% of the sale price. As your buyer's agent, we earn a share of that commission at completion, which means you receive expert, independent representation at no cost to you.
Get in touch →- We work for you, not the seller
No conflicts of interest. Our job is to find the right property — including the ones we think you should walk away from.
- Access to the full market
We search all listings, including off-market and pre-listed properties that never reach the portals.
- Expert negotiation on your side
Market-informed offers based on real comparables — we handle the conversation with the seller directly.
The process
Your Buying Journey
A nine-step process so you know exactly where you are and what comes next. We do what a buyer's agent does — search, visits, negotiation, coordination — and introduce you to the right specialists for the legal and financial side.
- 01
Free Discovery Call
A 30-minute call to understand what you're looking for and whether we're the right fit to help. No obligation either way.
- 02
Legal & Admin Setup
We introduce you to an English-speaking Portuguese lawyer we trust, plus contacts for your NIF and local bank account. The decisions stay yours.
- 03
Finance & Mortgage Prep
If you're financing, we introduce you to mortgage brokers who specialise in lending to international buyers. They run the application; we keep the timeline tight.
- 04
Neighbourhood & Property Search
Central Lisbon's neighbourhoods behave very differently on price, lifestyle and buying patterns. We shortlist against your criteria — across the public portals and off-market opportunities our network hears about early.
- 05
Property Visits
We schedule and accompany every viewing worth your time, with a pre-visit brief and an honest read afterwards on condition, realistic value, and whether it matches what you said you wanted.
- 06
Offer & Negotiation
We work up a market-informed offer and negotiate directly with the seller or their agent on your behalf. This is what a buyer's agent is really for.
- 07
Due Diligence & Contracts
Your lawyer runs the formal due diligence before the CPCV promissory contract is signed. We stay in the loop, push the timeline, and flag anything that doesn't look right.
- 08
Final Deed & Handover
The escritura is signed at a Portuguese notary. We attend with you; if you can't be there, your lawyer arranges power of attorney and we attend on your behalf.
- 09
Settling In & Ongoing Support
After the keys: we can introduce you to utility companies, renovation contractors, architects and interior designers — and point you at the right registrations. We stay in touch for as long as it's useful.
