What our Clientes say?

” We have recently completed a purchase of an apartment in Lagos after considering for many years without being brave enough to take the plunge.

Anja has a wealth of knowledge and is not your average agent due to vast experience, knowledge, efficiency and always willing to answer any question.

The process was smooth and Anja even offered us a list of English speaking solicitors and arranged a joint meeting so that the process and costs could be explained.

Anja gave us the confidence to be brave enough to take the plunge and we are delighted we did.

Thank you Anja “

” Just a quick note to thank you all at Marcela Properties for the professional treatment that we have received in our dealings with you this year.

We decided to put our house with Marcela because we originally purchased it through you fourteen years ago, and were very impressed with you then.

Our sale was not totally straightforward, but was certainly made much easier with the help and guidance provided by Marcela.

We have also purchased our new house through you and again have been so happy with our dealings with you.

So, a big thank you Anja (yes, it was you that found our place fourteen years ago) and also a massive thank you to you, Antonio (the boss!)If only all companies could be like you, buying and selling would certainly be less stressful.

” Buying a house in Portugal may feel complicated and bureaucratic but we felt safe and calm when we came in contact with Isabel Marques at Marcela Properties.

She was very professional and courteous and made everything very smoothe and neat.

We also engaged the laywer that Isabel recommended and we are very pleased with all the help and services he have done for us before, during and after the purchase of the property.

It was easy to have contact and communicate with Isabel and the lawyer at all times, despite us beeing in Sweden.

That felt very secure and good.

We can warmly recommend Isabel Marques and Marcela Properties and we thank you for everything you did for us and that we still have contact! “

” Dear Isabel

We would like to thank you and Francisco Moreira Braga our solicitor for the very efficient way you helped manage the purchase of our apartment in Lagos.

The whole buying process went seamlessly and in particular Francisco was brilliant in overcoming any obstacles.

Even right down to arranging our apartment gas inspection whilst we were out the country and arranging for us to set up a bank account ensuring that copies of our fiscal number and utility details where at the bank ahead of our appointment.It must be difficult to manage different nationalities and cultures when the two partied buying and selling are from different countries and you have both been excellent in doing this. “

” Jag har flyttat till Portugal, halva året. Beslutet växte fram under året framförallt den allt längre och mörkare svenska vintern fick beslutet att klarna. Tillsammans med vänner bokade jag möten med olika mäklare i Algarve från Tavira till Lagos. Sammanlagt var vi inne i ca 20 lägenheter. Med mig hade jag en klar önskelista både vad gäller pengar och prestanda. Mäklarna skiljer sig från Sverige. Här kan objekt ligga hos flera mäklare. Därför fick vi olika visningar. Vi valde till slut mellan ett par lägenheter, alla från Marcellan. Kanske slumpen, men vi fick väldigt bra gehör.

När väl valet var gjort, var det mycket enklare än jag trodde att komma till avslut och genomföra hela affären. Var bara nere en gång, resten löstes på distans.

Väl här nere hittade jag snabbt svenska vänner. Portugal är enkelt att leva i. Det mesta fungerar som hemma. Språket är en barriär som jag bestämt mig klara, men engelskan fungerar bra. Slutligen för er som ännu inte bestämt er, finns här fantistisk mat. Jag är en fiskälskare, här finns daglig fantastisk fräsch och prisvärd fisk. “
