We'd like to share with you why we created 𝐏𝐥𝐮𝐬 𝐏𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐮𝐠𝐚𝐥, what it is, and how it can help with your move or investment in Portugal.
As you may know, or will soon find out, when you move to another country, it is essential to find the right support for your family. You need someone to guide you through the process.
When you relocate to a different country, you face barriers such as 𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐮𝐚𝐠𝐞, 𝐢𝐦𝐦𝐢𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬, 𝐭𝐚𝐱𝐞𝐬, 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐡𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐬𝐲𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐦𝐬, 𝐬𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐥𝐬, 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐦𝐮𝐜𝐡 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞. You can find information online, that’s true, but it can be very confusing. You can try to find experts for each part of the journey, but that’s overwhelming, too.

𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐭’𝐬 𝐰𝐡𝐲 𝐰𝐞 𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐏𝐥𝐮𝐬 𝐏𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐮𝐠𝐚𝐥 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐲.
We realised that no one truly represents the buyer. Buyers are left to go alone to estate agents and research properties themselves. The estate agent represents and defends the seller’s interest. But who supports the buyer?
There is no service to guide you independently, from researching, to finding and vetting properties, to settling in.
𝐏𝐥𝐮𝐬 𝐏𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐮𝐠𝐚𝐥 was born out of that frustration. We wanted to create something transparent, honest, personal, and trustworthy.
A place where you feel represented. Where someone is truly on your side.
We only work with estate agents we trust, and we become your single point of contact. We manage all communication on your behalf, and we translate everything for you, which is essential.
Once you’ve viewed a property and want to move forward, the complicated part begins: the 𝐛𝐮𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐮𝐜𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐲. And Portugal has plenty of it. We step in as your personal representative in Portugal, guiding you through every step.
We begin with a consultation to understand your needs and preferred locations. Then we contact our trusted estate agent partners to research properties. We pre-vet each one by visiting them ourselves, and prepare a detailed report highlighting the pros and cons of both the property and the area.
That saves you time and money, you don’t need to travel to Portugal for the initial scouting. Together, we shortlist the properties you like most, and then you can fly over to view them in person.
We’ll be with you every step of the way, from airport pickup to hotel check-in, to viewings. We’ll even tour the neighbourhood with you, so you feel confident and familiar with the area.
To buy property in Portugal, whether you are a resident or not, you need a 𝐭𝐚𝐱 𝐧𝐮𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫. We can take care of that for you, so you don’t get overwhelmed at the very first step.
Then comes the 𝐢𝐦𝐦𝐢𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬, which can be stressful. Portugal is currently experiencing some delays. That’s why having the right legal advice from trustworthy firms is so important. We can recommend law firms, and we can act as your point of contact with them to make sure everything moves smoothly and you get the right residence in Portugal.
Every property comes with legal documents. But it’s not the same as the conveyancing process in the UK. If you want access to a more comprehensive report, including flood risks, wildfire risks, or nearby schools, we can provide that too.
If you’re purchasing a property that requires renovation, we also partner with 𝐛𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬, 𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐬, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐨𝐫 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐬. The idea is to offer a complete service under one roof, so you don’t need to go through the exhausting process of sourcing skilled professionals yourself. We do it for you.
We also help with utilities, being present during installations, and can even assist with school searches, including joining you at meetings with schools.

Doing it on your own, even with the help of the internet, can expose you to unnecessary risks:

With 𝐏𝐥𝐮𝐬 𝐏𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐮𝐠𝐚𝐥, you have someone on your side who knows the system, who checks every document, and who genuinely cares about your decisions.
𝐈𝐭’𝐬 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐚𝐲: We are not estate agents. We don’t sell property. We are not a law firm, and we don’t offer financial or tax advice. But we work with the best in each of those fields, coordinating and guiding everything for you.
𝐎𝐮𝐫 𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 is simple: To make your transition to Portugal enjoyable, secure, and stress-free.
