Who we are

RESIDENTS – Real Estate is a real estate agency specialized in Porto´s prime zones and particularly dedicated to work with foreign investors and buyers.

Its founders have over 10 years of experience in the real estate market and were at the genesis of another project in the city of Porto, which they abandoned to create and develop RESINDENTS.

RESIDENTS was created in 2021 to fill a gap that its founders believe exists in the real estate market in the city of Porto.

In this sense, RESIDENTS intends to simultaneously fulfill the following requirements:
• Detailed knowledge of the commercialized areas;
• Vocation and preparation to work with foreign investors and buyers;
• Technical capacity to monitor and advise foreign entities and persons regarding their investments in Portugal;
• Technical capacity and competence assured by many years of experience in the economic and financial evaluation of real estate investments;
• Legal partnerships to accompany and advise Portuguese and foreigners on related matters such as:
o Real estate law;
o Taxation;
o Non-Habitual Residents Regime;
o Residence Visas and
o Gold Visas.

All RESIDENTS´ staff has in-depth knowledge of the commercialized areas. For this reason, RESIDENTS has its areas of action restricted to prime areas of the city of Porto, with only a few exceptions being made in very particular cases.

In order to fulfill its transnational vocation, RESIDENTS has protocols and partnerships with a number of entities in order to attract clients outside Portugal interested in investing or seeking residence in this country.

RESIDENTS´ partners have academic training and specializations in the legal, economic and marketing areas in Portugal and abroad. This factor guarantees the technical capacity needed for an excellent follow-up, both in a simple purchase and sale, as well as in more complex deals and transactions.

Finally and most importantly, what we intend to be our greatest asset: TRUST.
We are guided by high standards of transparency, ethics and competence. The reputation of Residents partners is our company´s most important asset. We want RESIDENTS to be synonymous with TRUST and that is what we are committed to in our entire activity.
