Why do I need help in Scouting my move to Portugal?

Moving abroad is very different from a local move. Beyond the language barrier, Portugal has cultural nuances, regional differences, and administrative steps you simply don’t discover until you’re already here. That’s where we make the process easier.

We act as your “boots on the ground”—guiding you through neighborhoods and regions, and ensuring listings are exactly what they claim to be. Having been through the immigration process ourselves, we know what you’ll need for visa and residency appointments and can help you avoid surprises.

In short: we take the stress off your shoulders and help you navigate everything you don’t know you need to know before arriving.

What if I can’t make a trip to Portugal, I need to do it all from my home country?

No problem—it can be done. We moved here ourselves without ever taking a scouting trip, so we understand exactly what you’re facing.

Our service is designed for people who can’t visit in advance but still want to confidently choose their future home. We help you identify the right region, city, and neighborhood based on your needs, and provide detailed guides, market insights, and on-the-ground support. We can tour properties by video, verify listings, and manage everything locally so your move to Portugal is as smooth and stress-free as possible.

We even have affiliate stores where you can purchase items for your new home!

I need assistance with the Visa process! Is this something you do?

Absolutely! Yes. We stay up to date on requirements for both your VFS visa appointment and your AIMA residency appointment after you arrive. We work with trusted partners to help you secure essentials like your NIF and Portuguese bank account, and then assist with the next major requirement—housing.

Because we’ve been through the process ourselves, we understand the challenges and guide you through each step with reliable, vetted support.
