It is one of the world’s safest and most beautiful cities to live and invest in. The city has been named the ‘Best City Break Destination’ by the World Travel Awards for the last three years running. It elegantly mixes tradition with modernity, and has an unbeatable quality of life.
Lisbon is the perfect place to enjoy life, with its great infrastructure, affordable prices, delicious international cuisine, amazing attractions and beaches, and an average 300 days of sunshine per year. It is also business- and investment-friendly, offering many incentives and opportunities for foreign investors and entrepreneurs.
However, expats and foreigners need to be very careful in doing business in the Lisbon property market. There are many risks to overcome, including property scams, language barriers, bureaucracy, and legal and contractual issues. That is why it is important to find the right realtor, one who knows the market, who knows what they are doing, and who you can trust to help you get the best deal.
So, we created Lisbon Estates, the friendly expat realtor that you can trust for your real estate needs in Lisbon.

"My wife and I moved to Lisbon in September 2020 and we needed to find an apartment quickly, so we could apply for residency before the end of the year. We are so grateful we found Jasper and Lili from Lisbon Estates. They were supportive, knowledgable, patient and professional throughout our search until we found somewhere we could call home. If you are lucky enough to have found them, don’t look anywhere else, they are fantastic!"
"Me and my wife did a full relocation from Scandinavia to Lisbon in February 2021, in the middle of a European lockdown and pandemic. Within a week, Jasper and Lili managed to find our apartment in the desired area, within our price range and with the level of quality that we wanted. Good and solid rental process with clear and transparent communication. We strongly recommend their team and look forward to work with them again in the future."
"I moved to Lisbon in December 2019, and was very apprehensive about trying to find a new apartment in a place I did not know. However, Jasper and Liliana helped me find a great place - and, accidentally, a sweet but boring little cat! - and negotiated the rent and contract. I'm still in the same place 2 years later! I would definitely recommend Lisbon Estates to any newbies looking for a great place to live in Lisbon."

"Jasper and Liliana are the best! They helped me rent a beautiful, luxury apartment in Lisbon - without a guarantor - even negotiating a clause that would allow me to leave early if my residency visa was not approved. We completed everything remotely, while I still lived in the United States - I had never been to Portugal before. Eight months later they helped me buy a lovely garden apartment. I was hesitant to make such a major transaction without understanding how it worked, but they explained everything to me and made the process straightforward and comfortable."
"My son and I relocated from Thailand to Lisbon in July 2021, and we started looking to buy an apartment soon after. Our search was not going well until we found Liliana and Jasper, who listened to us and not only helped us identify our preferred location in Cascais and arranged multiple viewings, but also introduced us to a law firm, bank and mortgage broker. After a few weeks we found a wonderful apartment in just the location we were looking for. Liliana and Jasper are great to work with, professional, reliable and responsive, and they continued to support us through the sale and purchase process. We are very grateful for their help, and recommend them to any new arrivals!"
"My husband and I have had the privilege of working with Liliana and Jasper at Lisbon Estates on two different occasions. When we first moved to Lisbon they were able to help us find a great apartment for rental which ticked all of our boxes. Later when we decided to purchase there was no doubt who we would call to help us in our search. They were patient, helpful and it was a delight to work with them. Through their help we found the perfect apartment for us, and they helped us navigate the real estate process here in Portugal, from finding financing to signing the final papers. We’ve come to think of them as not only our real estate agents, but also our friends."
