“Paulo helped and supported us enormously throughout the entire process. Almost nothing was ever too much to ask. Very professional, patient, knowledgeable, and he has even become a good friend. I would certainly recommend Paulo as a real estate agent! 👍🏻” Jantine & Jan NL
“Paulo has for many years been a very dedicated real estate agent who still takes the time for his clients and speaks several languages. We completed a purchase through him 6 years ago and we still maintain very good contact. We wish him all the best with his real estate agency and highly recommend him. Good friends of ours have also completed a wonderful purchase through him and are very happy. What more could you ask for…” Christel & Michel BE
“Available and efficient real estate agent, Paulo has an extensive network to help you choose the property of your dreams on the west coast of Portugal. You can trust him both in the choice of property and in the transaction itself. An excellent professional, without a doubt.” Jacky & Marie-José FR
“Paulo is a true professional. We could not have built our house without his advice and hands-on assistance. He doesn’t just have in-depth knowledge of real estate; he is always there to guide and advise. He communicates very well and keeps his clients informed at all times. I recommend his services without hesitation.” Brian & Sue UK
“We have always appreciated you and you have an excellent vision for finding solutions to every problem. Your support from the beginning through to the final stage was very professional! Don’t hesitate to stop by the house… Kisses.” Sylvie & Yves FR
“I would like to thank Mr. Paulo Barão for the valuable help he provided during the purchase of my house in Portugal. He quickly understood what I was looking for and guided me to the house I bought. That is why I have recommended him to my friends.” Jean-Luc FR
“When we decided to buy a house in Portugal, we were fortunate to meet Mr. Barão. In an unfamiliar country, he was able to speak to us in Dutch, French, and English, which made everything much easier. He guided us in finding the right house, always with honest and precise descriptions. He recommended a suitable lawyer and provided contacts and advice to find insurers, furniture suppliers, maintenance staff, etc., in our region. All of this was done in a calm and professional manner. We are very grateful for his excellent service and are delighted with our purchase.” Patrick & Katia BE
“Our experience with Paulo was excellent. Recommended by one of his clients we met in a restaurant, he listened carefully to us during our first purchase in Portugal. He offered us a superb house that matched our wishes; in fact, we visited only one house, while friends of ours visited fifty — and it was love at first sight. We spent three wonderful years in that house. Later, for family reasons, we had to sell it and were approached by many real estate agents, but only one made the difference: always the same method, listening to the client, courtesy, kindness, availability with exceptional experience and knowledge of his profession, something rare nowadays, even in France. He helped us buy our first house in Portugal and then sold it when we left, I found that truly remarkable. If I had to rate him out of ten, I would give him a nine, because ten would be exaggerated (lol). If I return to Portugal, I will call on Paulo again because I have complete confidence in his professionalism. Kind regards.” Dominique Martinez FR
“My wife and I came to Portugal in April 2019 to explore buying a property and, after visiting several regions, we decided that the Silver Coast offered the best opportunity for the lifestyle we were seeking. We contacted Paulo via the Internet and arranged for him to pick us up at the Caldas bus station. From the beginning, the entire process from searching for a suitable property to completing the purchase was handled professionally and pleasantly. Not only did we find a property that met our requirements, but Paulo also helped us with many matters beyond the normal duties of a real estate agent. This was especially valuable as we were new to Portugal and unfamiliar with the procedures. He showed us around the area, introduced us to service providers for utilities and connectivity, and even helped us purchase a car and a television. When our grandson became ill, he accompanied us to obtain medical assistance. At no stage were we uncertain about the procedures or left waiting for responses. Paulo’s assistance made our relocation to a new home and country administratively efficient and stress-free.” Craig & Margie Paton-Ash ZA
“We used Paulo Barão to find and build our home on the Silver Coast last year, and he was exceptional. Before choosing an estate agent, we conducted extensive research to determine who would be the best choice based on the personal investment (time and effort) they dedicate to their clients. Paulo stood out as one of the best in the region. We met him several times; he spent hours answering our questions, providing objective data about the types of homes available, how long properties remained on the market, and offering a wealth of information about the area. When we eventually decided to build and found our plot, we were impressed. Paulo assisted us with the land purchase, the house design with the architect, and the construction through to completion something that could have been challenging without him. I recommend Paulo Barão to everyone I know. He is a true professional and a genuinely nice person.” Steve & Fiona Smith ZA
“For some time, we had been looking for a beautiful house in Portugal where we could live after our working life in the Netherlands. By chance, we met Paulo Barão when we walked into a real estate agency in Foz d’Arelho. Paulo is a true Portuguese, but to our great surprise, he spoke excellent Dutch. We visited several properties with him, but what we were looking for was not yet available. One day, two (!) years after our first meeting, while we were once again in Portugal searching for our ‘dream home,’ he called to tell us he had just received a property that might interest us. That ‘phone call’ proved to be golden. We visited the house with Paulo and immediately fell in love. It matched almost all our wishes perfectly. The location, layout, construction quality everything was right. Paulo had understood us perfectly. We quickly agreed on the purchase price with the seller. We returned to the Netherlands while Paulo handled all the necessary documents for the purchase process. He worked thoroughly and kept us well informed by email and phone. Paulo has an extensive network from which we greatly benefited. Through his contacts, we quickly arranged a suitable mortgage with a local bank, and he introduced us to an excellent contractor who renovated the house and made it suitable for permanent living. We have now been living in our ‘dream home’ in Portugal for two years and remain grateful every day for that ‘golden’ phone call.” Hugo & Tonny Hartman NL / Salir de Matos PT
“While searching for a real estate agent in Portugal, we met Paulo during our house-hunting journey. He guided us in a pleasant but above all very professional manner in purchasing our property. Thanks to his multilingual skills he speaks fluent Dutch, English, French, and of course Portuguese he was the perfect intermediary between us, the contractor, and the suppliers of sanitary ware and kitchen appliances. All agreements were properly documented, and during construction he regularly provided us with updates and photos. Thanks to his decisiveness and experience in guiding both the purchase and construction process, the experience was relaxed and enjoyable right up to the delivery of the house. If you do not speak Portuguese and are looking for a professional real estate agent or guidance in purchasing a property in Portugal, you are in good hands with Paulo Barão.” Patricia & Emiel NL
“I was able to appreciate the professional qualities of Mr. Paulo Barão during the purchase of my house in Atouguia da Baleia. He is a very competent and very helpful real estate agent, whom I highly recommend.” Jean-François Domenget FR
“We met Paulo Barão in 2021 and quickly came to appreciate him. He supported us competently from our very first request for information, going far beyond what one would normally expect from a real estate agent. His professionalism and seriousness in the mediation process were absolutely evident.
He also supported us in negotiations with the property developer and in finding a lawyer to draft the promissory purchase agreement. During the construction phase, although this was no longer really part of his role, he was always available to answer our questions and supported us at every stage.
We have now been living in Portugal for some time and have heard about the many problems encountered with other property developers. In this respect, it is invaluable to have an experienced and knowledgeable guide by your side. Paulo Barão is that guide, and we highly recommend him.” Claudia Fuentes & Ottmar Mayer DE (Caldas da Rainha)
