CUSTOMIZATION
Our services are tailored to your unique needs and preferences, adapting to changing circumstances throughout your homebuying journey.
Our unique role as your exclusive Portugal buyer’s agents differentiates us significantly from traditional real estate agents. Our service stands out by offering a cost-effective approach where the initial fee includes only necessary costs related to the property buying process, ensuring transparency and no hidden charges until the closing. This fee comprehensively covers essential services such as property appraisals by independent and bank-certified professionals, expert engineering inspections, reputable legal assistance, as well as insurance and loan coordination with skilled brokers.
Our Extended Buyer’s Agent (EBA) package is designed to leverage our established relationships with these professionals, thereby securing lower costs for you. This efficiency not only streamlines your buying experience but also offers substantial cost savings, which would be less attainable if these services were engaged independently. We coordinate each aspect of the process, aiming to achieve better rates and services, thus extending the value of your initial fee.
Clients often inquire about our earnings, given our unique fee structure. We earn commissions, similar to traditional agents, but these are typically covered by the property owner, not you. Our approach ensures that you only bear the direct costs of necessary services, while we use our expertise in negotiations to potentially increase your equity in the purchase. For instance, if our negotiation efforts save you €100,000 on a purchase, we might forgo a commission of €2,500. We see this not as a loss but as a win-win situation, where our diligent work results in your savings, leading to client satisfaction and referrals.
This model has built a robust referral base for us, with clients who have saved significantly by choosing our services often recommending us to others. The trust and satisfaction of our clients are crucial to us, as evidenced by the positive feedback and reviews we receive, both on Google and through our informative YouTube content.
Our collaboration with exclusive US and Portuguese consultants extends our working hours, ensuring seamless coordination and cost reduction. By consistently engaging with a network of certified professionals, we ensure high-quality services at better values, encompassed in a straightforward one-off fee to cover all the costs you would have anyway.
Our family-owned business, with a strong national presence in Portugal, is dedicated to providing personalized and reliable service, especially important when investing abroad. Our transparent fee structure and track record of client savings underscore our commitment to saving you both time and money.
Choosing Brint Portugal as your property investment partner means securing expert assistance, a cost-effective and efficient investment experience, and a commitment to making your property journey both rewarding and financially advantageous.
Traditional real estate agents, committed to professionalism and striving to balance the interests of both sellers and buyers, often face a longer property acquisition timeline due to their nature of work. Their role typically does not involve direct dealings with mortgage brokers, inspection engineers, appraisers, or in-depth document research. This absence of centralized coordination can lead to delays in managing each step of the buyer’s journey. As their responsibilities are divided between selling and buying, their approach might be less focused, causing delays at some stages – from property searching to finalizing the deal. This fragmented method may result in a protracted process for buyers, who might not face these delays when working with a exclusibe buyer’s agent focused solely on their needs.
Traditional real estate agents, dedicated to professionalism and aiming for mutually beneficial deals, often provide a range of services that, while helpful, may not encompass the full coordination of the buying process. Their approach tends to be more segmented, offering assistance in various aspects but not necessarily managing them comprehensively. They can recommend reputable professionals but typically don’t handle interactions with these experts on behalf of the buyer.
Traditional real estate partners, dedicated to maintaining professional integrity and striving for fair outcomes for both sellers and buyers, often have a localized scope of operation. Focusing primarily on their specific regions, they may offer a limited variety of options and insights for buyers looking to invest in different areas. This local focus can be less conducive for buyers, especially those open to exploring various regions, be it for investment purposes or as future expats. Traditional agents usually emphasize their local listings, which may lack the broader market perspective and diverse property selections advantageous for buyers with flexible regional interests.
As Exclusive Portugal Buyers Agents, our negotiation strategy is entirely focused on advancing the buyer’s interests. We operate without any conflict of interest, as we never represent sellers. This singular focus allows us to adopt an aggressive stance in negotiations, ensuring that we pursue the most favorable terms and conditions exclusively for our clients. Our commitment is to secure the best possible deal, whether that involves lower prices, better terms, or advantageous contingencies. Our role is to be advocates for our buyers, using every piece of information and market insight to their advantage.
Traditional real estate agents, who are committed to professionalism and aim for equitable outcomes, primary objective is to facilitate a deal that meets the needs of both parties, which can lead to less aggressive negotiation tactics on behalf of the buyer.
Our fiduciary duty as Exclusive Portugal Buyers Agents is unequivocally aligned with the buyer. This commitment encompasses loyalty, confidentiality, diligence, and obedience exclusively towards our client’s interests. We are obligated to provide unbiased and honest advice, prioritize the buyer’s financial interests, and maintain absolute discretion in all dealings. Our actions and recommendations are driven solely by what is most beneficial for the buyer, ensuring that their objectives are met.
Traditional Real Estate Agents, committed to ethical standards and aiming to achieve positive results for sellers and buyers they represent. Their role requires balancing the seller’s goal of maximizing sale value with the buyer’s aim to minimize purchase costs. This split professional obligation can sometimes limit their capacity for strong advocacy on your behalf. In dual representation situations, their task becomes one of fair mediation, finding a middle ground between conflicting interests. This approach contrasts with Exclusive Portugal Buyers Agents, whose single-minded commitment to the buyer ensures focused advocacy and unwavering loyalty, leading to a more dedicated representation.
Our expertise as Exclusive Portugal Buyers Agents is rooted in a deep understanding of the real estate market from a buyer’s perspective. We specialize in identifying factors that are crucial for buyers, such as the potential for future resale value, the growth prospects of different neighborhoods, and the long-term benefits of specific property features. Our goal is to equip you with all the information you need to make a well-informed decision, ensuring that your purchase is not only suitable for your current needs but also a valuable asset in the future.
As Exclusive Portugal Buyers Agents, our sole commitment is to the buyer, which places us in a unique position free of conflicts of interest. This singular focus means that every piece of advice we give, every property we suggest, and every negotiation strategy we employ is tailored specifically to benefit the buyer. We don’t have listings to sell or sellers to appease, so our recommendations are unbiased and purely in the interest of finding the best possible outcome for our clients. This clarity of purpose ensures that buyers receive dedicated attention and guidance that is 100% aligned with their needs and goals. The absence of divided loyalties means we can fully concentrate on securing the most advantageous deal for our clients, both in terms of price and contract terms.

In our role as Exclusive Portugal Buyers Agents, we place a high priority on the legal and contractual aspects of property purchases. Recognizing the complexities of real estate transactions, we ensure that our buyers receive robust legal protection. This involves a thorough review of all contracts and legal documents by experienced lawyers specializing in real estate. Our aim is to identify and address any potential legal issues before they become problems. This includes clarifying terms, ensuring compliance with real estate laws, and safeguarding against any clauses that could be detrimental to the buyer’s interests. We also check if every part of the house has been legally registered to avoid potential headaches. Our approach is proactive – we don’t just react to legal challenges; we anticipate and manage them to provide a secure and legally sound transaction for our clients through lawyers and notaries.
In our role as Exclusive Portugal Buyers Agents, we place significant emphasis on property inspections and appraisals. Understanding the crucial role these elements play, we conduct comprehensive inspections to uncover any potential issues with a property that could affect its value or suitability for the buyer. Additionally, we utilize dual appraisals — both our internal assessment and independent professional evaluations — to gain a well-rounded understanding of the property’s true market value. This dual appraisal approach provides a solid basis for informed negotiations, allowing us to advocate effectively for our clients. By identifying any discrepancies between the listed price and the appraised value, we are equipped to negotiate the price and terms more effectively, ensuring our clients pay a fair price and understand the investment they are making.
At Brint, as uoir Exclusive Portugal Buyers Agents, we provide highly personalized services, tailoring property searches and process flows to individual buyer needs, whether they are investors seeking ROI or expats looking for a smooth relocation. Offer comprehensive coordination and stress management by liaising with various service providers nationally, ensuring each buyer’s unique requirements are met effectively.
If you are thinking about buying residential property in Portugal for relocation, for retirement, as a vacation property, or as an investment opportunity, BRINT can serve as your exclusive Portugal buyer’s agent. With years of combined experience in the Portuguese real estate market, we can help you find the best properties, navigate the negotiation process, and help you get the best price possible.
We specialize in finding the best potential properties, gathering all the essential information you need about the surrounding neighborhood and schools, arranging for property inspections, and even negotiating with the seller as your representative so you can get the lowest price.
When people from the US, the UK, Canada and elsewhere buy property in Portugal, they quickly realize that the process can be a lot different than it is in their home country. Negotiating a real estate purchase where you live is hard enough, but when the property is hundreds or even thousands of miles away in a foreign country where you may not even speak the language, it can be next to impossible without somebody right there on the ground looking out for your best interests.
The Portuguese home buying process can be extremely stressful and time-consuming. While it may be tempting to rely on the listing agent when inquiring about a seemingly perfect house online, it’s important to remember that the listing agent is acting on the seller’s behalf, not yours. Instead, you need to rely on BRINT Portugal to be your local advocate.
At BRINT Portugal, we have one job: Getting you the best property at the lowest possible price.
The duties of a traditional real estate agent in Portugal are the same as anywhere: Listing, showing, and ultimately selling property at the highest possible price on the behalf of its owner. After all, when the sale price is higher, so is the commission received by the realtor. BRINT Portugal acts as your representative, making sure you get the best property at the best value.
It is nothing new that real estate agents worldwide work for the seller of the property and are encouraged to reach the highest price for their clients.
It works the same in Portugal: Traditional brokers are paid directly by the seller and are therefore motivated to sell properties for the best price so they can get the highest possible commission. But in the Portuguese real estate market, it gets even more complex and dynamic. Because of the language barrier and the foreign buyer’s lack of local market knowledge, it is essential to have somebody right there providing impartial advice without a conflict of interest.
If something goes wrong before the closing, the seller’s broker may protect the sale even if it is not in your best interests as a buyer.
For example, let’s say the appraisal comes in lower than the sales price. In this instance, the seller’s broker has a huge conflict of interest: To make the highest sales commission, it’s in their best interest to protect the sale at the higher price!
We will ensure you will have the latest market intelligence data to make an informed decision.
Many of our agents are also ex-pats themselves, so they know what it’s like to buy a property in Portugal as a foreigner.
