What my client's say ...
Irina, from Ucraine
“ Thanks to you, we found our new home. You're one of the few realtors who truly cares about their clients' interests and their desire to find them a home they'd love to own. Perhaps that's the key to success—seeing happy and satisfied clients at the end.
We're confident it will bring us many pleasant emotions, impressions, and memorable moments. "
Kazuko, Japan
" Thanks Joana for your advice and assistance, we’re looking forward to the next steps and to creating a beautiful home in Cascais "
Shane, from USA
" This year has been a big one, and having someone we trust on the ground in Portugal made all the difference. We’re very grateful not only for your support as our realtor, but for the partnership and friendship that’s grown along the way. "
Who am I ?
Born and raised in Cascais, I’m passionate about helping families and investors discover the best of Portugal’s luxury real estate. My roots here run deep, giving me unique insight into the local market, lifestyle, and community. With years of experience living abroad, I understand the needs of international buyers and those relocating for a better quality of life, safety, or investment.
As both a top-producing real estate agent and an interior designer, I offer a full-service approach—helping clients not just find the perfect property, but also envision its full potential.
This is NOT me
Interior Design Expertise
My dual background means you’ll have a real estate partner who can not only find your ideal property, but also help you see—and realize—its full potential.
​
For the past six years, I’ve been the co-owner of Design Matters, a boutique interior design company in Cascais. While my main focus today is helping clients buy and sell luxury homes, I continue to offer my design expertise if you need a quick consultation, a fresh update to your space, or a full turnkey interior design project.
