Cristina Pereira
To our clients, partners, and future residents of Portugal:
Property is, at its heart, deeply personal. It shapes how you live, where your children grow up, and the community that becomes your own. For over two decades, I have guided families, investors, and individuals through one of life’s most significant decisions: finding a home in Portugal. I am honoured to share why I do this work and what you can expect when working with me.
Why I Founded Residential Advisory Portugal
I started this company because I saw international buyers arriving in Portugal with substantial resources, yet navigating the market alone. They faced agents who represented sellers, language barriers that obscured critical details, and legal complexities that created unnecessary risk. I knew there was a better way. Through my partnership with Sotheby’s International Realty Portugal, I now combine global reach with deep local expertise to serve buyers exclusively.
My Vision
My vision is simple: to be the most trusted property advisory for high-net-worth individuals seeking homes in Portugal. I combine the global resources of Sotheby’s International Realty with decades of local market knowledge. Your interests guide every recommendation I make. Transparency and discretion, delivered with personal service. This is what I offer.
My Foundation
I provide direct access to Sotheby’s International Realty, present in over 69 countries with eight offices across Portugal. I understand which neighbourhoods attract family offices, where values are appreciating, and which properties represent genuine opportunity. I work exclusively for buyers—no dual agency, no conflicts of interest, no properties pushed because they are difficult to sell. My commitment does not stop at closing. I offer lifetime aftercare for any property-related question, for as long as you own property in Portugal.
My Commitment
Your interests come first. I will never pressure you to transact quickly or recommend properties that do not match your requirements. Your privacy is protected through discretion at every stage. I support your transition from research through purchase to home setup, coordinating legal, architectural, and contractor matters on your behalf.
Looking Ahead
I believe the best of Portugal’s luxury property market is still ahead. Supply remains constrained while international demand grows. The families choosing Portugal are making one of the best decisions of their lives. Not just financially, but personally. I am grateful for the opportunity to be part of that journey.
If you are considering Portugal, I would be honoured to meet you for coffee and discuss your vision.
With warm regards,
Founder, Residential Advisory Portugal
